At Home// Interior to exterior

Focus

I usually don’t take supplements everyday, but I am now.

There is a vase of eucalyptus in every room, because we found out that it could stimulate immune system, and it is aesthetically pleasing.

People choose to dine at home instead of eating out, almost every living room is lit up during dinner time. What a heart warming scene.

Frame

The sun is great during the afternoon, it is motivating to wash and clean your house, washed clothes would dry fast and the sun would kill the germs. And it is my slippers’ turn.

Bird’s eye

No more school, but you gained family time.

 

Zoom

According to Marie Kondo, keep those that spark you joy when you are holding them. After decluttering and tidying, I guess I like white t-shirt more than anything.

 

Skewed angle

Checking news everyday, and seeing the numbers go up exponentially, and sigh…

Worm’s eye

Whenever I am heading out, I would bring these items with me —masks, alcohol spray, and wipes.

Crop

First thing first when I arrive home, wash the clothes (with Dettol) that I was wearing and take a shower.

Perspective

The moment I take away the cover fabric… long time no see.

First person perspective

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dusting is satisfying… ahh I’m bored.

In order to strengthen the immune system, I practised yoga and did some HIIT at home, it has been awhile since I last used the mat, cause I usually go for yoga classes outside.

 

Technical description- Wide view

Wide angle enables audiences to see the crowded yet neat residential buildings in one frame, almost every living room is lit up and forms a vertical line as its planned, it has a vivid contrast against the dark backdrop at night. And shows as a result of fear to the virus, people would avoid dining out or even going out to minimise chances to contact with others. However, this is not a sad image to look at, we have living room which symbolise family taking up most of the space and light resembles positivity, which a dark backdrop emphasise.

    There is a quiet sense of optimism in your collection of annotated photographs here, which offers a refreshing counterpoint to the wider sense of gloom. Appreciate your observations and reflections which are well-described in your annotations, from how more people are dining together and home and how you gain family time to having time to declutter and return to your music that you have not got to for a while etc.
    Skewed and Worm’s eye shots are rather similar. For the skewed angle, try experimenting with tilting your camera to other degrees to achieve a more unexpected, even odd view that could be dizzying (this may require you to reconsider your subject matter).
    The Cropped view is a clever return view from inside an inanimate object (if you are interested, this is something you can consider for your video essay later).
    The piano indeed offers strong 1-point perspective lines. Ah, the flutter of the red velvet covering is intentional!
    Very good attempt in setting up the 5-set Series of yoga mat and eucalyptus against the wooden flooring, then introducing yourself and the cleaning that follows. To strengthen the visual impact of the series, consider using the same plan view (in 1-3) for the 4 and 5 photographs in the series.
    Each photograph is a thoughtful and reflective. Recommendation: To make them read strong as a collection, consider how your viewer encounters them in sequence and calibrating the overall colors and tones to communicate another layer of visual message. That said, we are wondering why your first photograph is in black and white…
