San Francisco Reflection


Photo by: Lauren Hammer
This photo was taken mid-February in San Francisco. We were right in the middle of the city, and skyscrapers towered all around us. I was wearing my mirror aviators, and wanted to get a reflection picture with the buildings in it. I had been using my friend Alondra as my model all day long, and she was very cooperative. I imagined getting as much of the huge buildings as possible along with some of the people on the street into the reflection. In editing the picture, I really didn’t do much to it besides lower the saturation a little bit. Overall, I’m happy with how the photo turned out.

I like this picture because of the reflection and the idea of the picture. I also like the expression on her face and the lighting.

This picture definatly captures the essence of of autumn. The only suggestion i have is to make the picture of a more orange or yellow tent to the picture that you could of done on photoshop. But good job.

I really like this photograph. The colors and how in focus it is really makes it interesting to look at. I like that you can’t see the photographer or the camera in her sunglasses.

This picture is really cool because you can see the reflection of things going on in the sun glasses. The lighting is also bright but not to bright. I like how everything in the background is out of focus as well.

The way that you captured the buildings and the people in this photo was amazing keep up the good work. I also like how all the buildings and what not are in focus.

This picture is pretty cool. I like the depth of field. I always liked the reflections in the glasses idea and you took it to another level, which I thought was unique. I like how you zoomed in on her face too. Great job

This photograph gives a great urban feel with the building in the background of the sunglasses. The reflection of the sunglasses is a great vocal point. The placement of the subject using the rule of thirds wail also lining up the center point with sunglasses very well done it has created a very good photograph that appeals to the eyes.

I think you did a really good job on this photo—especially when it comes to not getting your camera in the actual lens of the sun glasses. When it comes to the reflection in the glasses, I really like the buildings and the people and the kind of rounded look that the glasses give them. Also I really like how you had to girl looking out to the crowd and how she isn’t taking up the whole picture. This element gives depth of field and gives the viewer something to look towards.
