The old town

By Louise Crux

Introduction The theme that the whole class have been doing is our

community but we have been put in to small groups of 3 to look at certain parts of the community of Cowes. The

group that I was in were looking at the old town of Cowes and the parts that have loads of character and something about the old town which makes it have loads of history.

I like this picture

because it’s simple and

elegant and it follows the

simplicity rule as nothing is

hectic about it and the door looks like its

from the Victorian

times.

I love this picture as it has tons of

character and patterns, plus it has an art deco

feel to it. I also get the feeling I’m

being taken to a different place

when I look at this picture, like

Italy or new York. The rule that this

follows is pattern.

I like this picture

because it’s classy and

elegant, and I get the feel I’m going to

another time. The rule that

this picture follows is its

simplicity.

I like this picture because it gives you a feel of what the old really looks like and it has loads of character about it and doesn't look like everything else. The rule that is being followed here is

vertical lines.

I like this picture because it’s so

serine and it’s not trying hard to be a

beautiful picture because the light

and the positioning of the

gate has made already beautiful

in its own way. The rule that is

being followed is the simplicity.

With this picture even though they are the same but it’s not just the difference in

color, I wanted to experiment with different kinds of

settings to see the difference in

characteristics.

I like the fact that this picture gives a strong

power of illusion by

following the rule of

simplicity.

I like this picture because it’s

classy and the reflection on the water is really

effective.

Like the picture before I wanted to check out the different style settings that were on the camera to see the difference the pictures and with the black and white picture I get the sense of a 1940’s era

where as the color picture gives a more up to date feel.

I love this picture as it

gives a different

perspective other then

straight through the

lens and it looks through

a reflection which gives it

character without trying

so hard.

I love the fact that the light hits

all the right places and it’s

trying to be something that is

trying to be a stereotypical

beauty as it’s a different kind essence it has

about it, with the rule of vertical

lines, which make more powerful.
