Emulating A Professional Photographer: Best Photo

I believe this is my best image because I prefer black and white photos because they reveal the texture of the food. This is a picture of Turkey, and I enjoy most black and white images, so being able to emulate this photographer was a fun experience. The most difficult aspect of this assignment was selecting a photographer; some of the most well-known and notable photographers are difficult to replicate if there isn't enough set up or time to prepare those types of images. Hey! I love the photographer you chose. I think my favorite photo is your stones photo. It's so pretty with the stones in a spiral to replicate the top photo. Bullseye is something I could see as your focal point, with the sun and shadow adding life to it. It is beautifully made, and the way the stones are deliberately arranged to mimic the opposite of what the photo reference is on is stunning. I get the same feeling from Andy Goldsworthy's Broken Pebbles and your photo. My only criticism would be to experiment with using editing software to colorize the photo; I think it would look cool to see it in a different color. - Near Rubin
