Journal Notes- 108-113

I learned more about formal portraits during my reading. The emphasis should be on the subject and this can be created by putting them in the center of the image. The photographer put this man in the middle of the image to show emphasis on him and had a neutral background behind him, so that the focus was on the man. The photo is good in color because the background is an earth-tone, and contrasts from the clothes the man is wearing. www.orbitexperience.com/biography/portraits/medium_formal_portrait.jpg
