For this task, I chose to photograph the eyes. I wanted to capture more than just a regular, human eye. How boring is that, right? So my thought was to take it a step farther and capture eyes of all different varieties while at the same time adding some sort of creative spin to it. I took many test shots and played around with lighting, angles and colors before I decided on a picture to keep.
For the composition of this photo I wanted to make the light slightly dim because I think it adds to the antiquity of the doll. So I chose a spot in my home that is relatively dim and took multiple test shots until I got the lighting I wanted. This is one of my favorite photographs that I took for this assignment because I love the delicate, feminine lace under the dolls chin and light skin against those big dark blue eyes. In my opinion her bold eyes are a great contrast to her delicate features.
I wanted this photograph to appear slightly eerie yet sweet and innocent at the same time. The viewers eyes go directly to the dolls face, following the arched eyebrows down to her eyes which is the main focal point.
