1. The Country Store
This is a country store. On the ranch I live on. I don't know why we have it, but I'm not arguing, since it makes a good subject for black and white. It would've looked better without all the stuff on the porch. And without all the stuff in the window. I like the how the sign looks, though.
2. The Stables
You've probably realized at this point there's kind of a western theme going on here. Well, I live on a ranch so what would you expect? (Okay, so it's not a real ranch, but it's a guest ranch. It's still a ranch!!!) Plus, the western style kind of fits with black and white, don't you think? This building was once stables for cows and horses (back when this was a real ranch), so it fits with with the western theme. I like how the roof looks in black and white.
3. The Sheds
These are two tool sheds and a silo and a hay loft. This is probably my favorite picture, the shade makes it look cool. The leaves on the trees look cool, too.
4. The Barn
This is the barn. I think this picture would've looked better if the doors had been open and if I had gotten closer before I took the picture, but it looks cool in black and white.
5. Cars
Okay, I know what you're thinking: "Again with the toy cars???" Well, what better to put in an old-looking picture than old-looking cars? They look pretty good in black and white. Plus, I have two younger brothers, so toys cars are easy to find at my house...okay, fine, some of them are mine...
Extra Picture
That first photo of the shop is brilliant! I think that the bright white gives it an accurate sense of historic flavor, if that makes any sense. :)
ReplyDeleteI like how you us building in black and white it makes it look serous and cool.
ReplyDeleteI really like the picture with the hay loft, silo, and sheds! The black and white I think gives it age.
ReplyDeleteI really like how contrasting your photos are. I feel like the barn could have been a little more close up just so the subject was more clear but overall you have some amazing photos!
ReplyDeleteI really like all the pictures and the contrast makes them even better. On the picture of the stables it might look a little bit better if it was more zoomed in or if you were closer. I don't know if it would, it's only an idea. The picture I really like is the shed picture, the contrast makes it look really cool.
ReplyDeleteI really love the picture of the sheds (: when I look at it I think of "The Wizard of Oz" very creative and it makes the whole area older and aged.
ReplyDeleteI like the subjects you chose for black and white images. I think they are stronger because of the heavy contrast of dark darks and bright whites. I like the landscape images a lot - nice rule of thirds.
ReplyDeleteI like how you used the old buildings. They look good in black and white because they are old.
ReplyDeletei like the contrast that these photos have, i also love how you used old buildings for the pictures
