Environmental Portrait- Boudin's Baker
This photo was taken at Boudin's Bakery in San Francisco. It was a rather quick shot because I had a very short time to capture the spectacle, the giant alligator made of delicious sourdough bread! There is a sense of movement and rhythm because the line of the alligator moves your eye along the photo. Pattern is also created by the consistent "scales" of the alligator's back, and the texture of the scales is pleasing to the eye. However, this is an environmental portrait of the baker because he is in his element with his dough, in his uniform, and holding and admiring his work.

I love this photo, you took it at a great angle and i'm really suprized how you caught the photo at the perfect moment :)
ReplyDeleteI like this picture because it's rythym and movement; you caught him at the right time. I also like the proportion because everything fits at the right angle and the bread seems large considering it's almost as big as him, and bread isn't usually as big as you.
ReplyDeletei like how he seems unaware of you taking this photo,good job
