Technical:

I manipulated this image in editing so that the door frame is completely vertical, despite this making the wall in the centre of the image slightly slanted. The image was taken with the idea of having two halves of the image; One plain and one full of tones and textures that are lacking in the opposite side.

Visual:

This photograph has two clear halves; the plain white wall and the door, frame and hanging items of clothing. The white wall however, isn’t completely white. Due to the reflection of the light passing through a sky light window there are warm tone and cool tone patches, creating an interesting beaming effect on the wall. The other half consists mainly of black, white and grey items of clothing, which break up the image. The multi-tone dress in the centre of the door is the focal point of the entire image, helping to add texture and an interesting pattern.

Conceptual/Contextual:

The concept behind this image and the entire ‘Home-Sweet-Home’ photoshoot was to shoot my house in quite a simple, cool tone yet visually (aesthetically) appealing way. For this reason I decided to photograph an array of dull clothes and a slightly colourful reflection of sunlight to create a balanced yet contrasting image.
