CARVING OUT THE LIGHT

BACKED INTO A CORNER

Description:  I placed the shells in the top left corner closely together to show a relationship of friends or companions. I took the picture from the view of looking down which makes it more interesting and ominous. I angled the light from the bottom right corner to shine towards the top left corner to create a diagnole shadow and ray of light that meet at a point. The small amount of light that hits the front of the shells creats an almost kind of scene. Imagine: Two people backed into the corner of dark room when a door opens and a ray of light shines through. You can use your imagination to decide whether the thing or person that opened the door is helpful or dangerous to the two people backed into the corner.

Description of Unique View Point:  My view point was from the top looking down which created interesting effects.

Importance of Un-occupied Space:  The un-occupied space in the bottom left corner is used to create the effect of something greater coming towards the two people (shells). If I were to get rid of the light in that area, the mood that I was going for would change completely.
