  1. What role does distance and size play in these images?
    Distance and Size makes the photo’s have more to them. More cars, buildings, etc. fit in the photo. This makes it a better image in my opinion.

    How does the photographer integrate ideas of color and identity in these images?
    The photographer makes the color work. Everything flows, it makes the city look more illuminated and bright. It is a unique idea.

    What role does focus play in relation to size?
    The photographer only has certain parts of the image in focus, then the rest is out of focus. This makes the size seem like things are bigger or smaller and it makes it overall better.

    ~ distance gives you more view of the world and different perspective size gives you and idea of how big the place is

    How does the photographer integrate ideas of color and identity in these images?
    ~ he takes the pictures at night when the city is lit up and he takes different angles and he he takes pictures of different areas

    What role does focus play in relation to size?
    ~ focus is important so when you can see a specific focal point and everywhere else is blurred he is trying to get you to focus on one thing or he wants to give the allusion of things going by fast

  3. I think that distance make sure that you can the photo in a birds eye of view. I believe that the night setting makes the colors seem more richer and really cool to look at. I think that focus makes the photo more beautiful and also makes the color more rich and cool to look at.

  4. Capturing more in a photo creates more of the size of the object(s) to be smaller in size. But zooming in on the camera we can get a close up from where the photo is being taken. The time of day whether its night or day will have a different color in the images so capturing a photo at night will capture all the lights will bring more color and will capture the viewers eyes. Blurring out part of the picture to focus on the clear and sharp part of the image.

    – The photo gets more and more out of focus the further into the picture you go. It adds a lot of depth and has your eyes pay more attention to the areas in the front.

  8. Distance and size play a big part of the photographs because it is a common theme throughout the collection. The photographer makes color and the lights the show stopper. I think if everything was a blur it would all be less effective and too busy so since he does a good job making the image sharp.

  9. The distance and size play a huge role in the photographs due to the height it made the whole streets vibrant in colors. The photographer used different color tools to really enhanced the photo. The focus plays a huge role due to the motion the helicopter is in as well as the motion of the natural body, so the focus need to be on point or the whole photo is wrecked.

  13. What role does distance and size play in these images?
    It plays a very important role because if the image is zoomed out, it can get a view of everything the lens can capture and if it’s zoomed it, it will get a good shot of the subject or object.
    How does the photographer integrate ideas of color and identity in these images?
    He uses the color and lights from the city.
    What role does focus play in relation to size?
    Focus makes the image look much more detailed. It captures the lights of the city. If the image is zoomed out, it will be hard for the camera to actually focus. It’s easier for focus to be more impactful if the image is zoomed in

  15. Distance and size plays a huge part because it makes the street in the photos stand out, with all the different colors and you can see more things in the photos. The photographer used like some type of tool to make the colors stand out more. Focus helps the picture stand out, I cant explain any further then that.

  17. Distance allows much more to be a part of the image and creates a different perspective. The photographer uses color to electrify his images and give them a futuristic feel. In most of these photos one building or area is in focus and the rest of the image is blurred out. The size of the object in focus is enlarged because of this effect.

  18. when the photographer is this far away from a subject it can make somethings appear much smaller and gives a unique perspective on certain objects like big Ben. the colors of the light really make a difference on how the picture feels and the place where your eyes are drawn to, the color arrangements also give a identity to the landscape as different because it has specific landmarks and the colors that illuminate them. another thing i noticed was that the scale of the blurred objects tended to appear bigger than the objects with more focus such as with the big Ben image and the bridge image at the beginning
