Slideshow Pros and Cons

When I began working on my images for the slideshow assignment, I knew immediately what I wanted to photograph.  Architecture is a very interesting subject matter for me, and I saw so many different styles of architecture on our campus alone.  Overall, I got some very interesting images, and I think my slideshow was very effective.

Pros:

1. The Music

The music I found for my slideshow on lastfm.com was perfect for my subject matter! It had an upbeat, instrumental feel, and I think that it went right along with the themes of design and form.

2. The Perspective

When I photographed the design around campus, I had some trouble finding interesting angles, but I kept pushing through until I came up with some very interesting shots.  It took much energy and persistence to complete this assignment, but the end result was successful.

Cons:

1. Variety

The only con that I could see is my lack of variety in image selection.  I had 2 or 3 images of the same bridge here on campus, and I think this subtracted from the diversity of the other photos I had.  When you begin to see just about the same image again and again, it makes the project far less interesting, and I wish I would have realized this before i completed the slide show.
