Texture

     For these photos I decided to focus on the texture of the organ. In the first picture it is obvious that the wood is not natural looking, but it contrasts well with the third picture where it looks more like actual wood. I was also interested in the way that light interacted with the finish, hence the darkness of the first picture and the light in the third. I find these pictures especially interesting because they do not reveal the full identity of the object, instead they raise more questions (especially the second photo).

Lighting

     In these photos, I chose to explore lighting and the effect that it has on the colors. To approach this, I moved the lamp that was my main light source and changed from direct and indirect lighting. In the first photo, the indirect lighting gives a great contrast between the lights and darks with minimal shadows. The second picture has more direct lighting but from farther away. I like how the 3 white pieces are the same color in the last picture but look very different in the second picture.
