I chose to take a picture of the beam above my garage. I chose this because I knew I would be able to see a shadow and different times of the day and hoping that it would give me a good difference in color. The first picture was taken at about 8pm and as you can see the shadow is going off to the left and is fairly drawn out. In this picture there is a fairly low saturation. The hue in this photo is fairly dull, because there isn't much of anything to it. The second picture I took was at about 7am. In this photo the shadow is a lot less drawn out and is going to the right. In this picture the hue is a orange color. I feel that this photo has a much greater value than the one from 8pm because it is a lot sharper with the colors. The last photo I took was around 5:15pm and in this photo there is no shadow seen. The photo has a much darker hue. When I look at this picture I feel almost lazy or something. This is because the colors of this photo are so dull. This project of taking the pictures definitely helped me to learn the light and color unit. It really showed me how much light can make a difference with color and how different the photo can look with a difference between the hue, value, and saturation.

I really know what you mean about feeling lazy looking at the third photo. It's just dull, comfortable... sleepy. I love how you were able to capture such a variety of shading though- It's very interesting to see how drastically different the shadows are and how they are stunted or stretched across the image. Nice one!
That looks really cool. You never would have thought that something so simple would be so neat!
Kristen,
Nice images. Your last picture doesn't have a "darker" hue. It has an overall reduction in saturation. This is the effect of "dullness" that you and Nicole have noted.
