This is a photograph that I found on the internet which denotes a woman performing a hair flick. She is placed to the right of a landscape composition in front of a white background. There is negative space included towards the left of the composition which creates an artistic composition. The position of the head is slightly tilted back and the women is looking down elegantly at the camera. The colour scheme is considerably neutral with no vibrant colours standing out significantly. The most significant colour would be the skin, particularly the cheeks where it seems that blusher has been applied in order to achieve the orange tint. There are also minimal shadows due to the lighting used which enhances the femininity of the subject, creating a softer, gentler approach. The pose of a hair flick implies a sense of movement due to the position of the hair which stands out greatly from the white background. There is ale a sense of texture in the top of the woman.
In this photograph I have used a pink background because i feel that the colour pink is is feminine and romantic, tender and intimate, thoughtful, sensitive and caring. It tones down the physical passion of red replacing it with a gentle loving energy. It is a positive color inspiring warm and comforting feelings. I included a yellow gel light coming in form the left side of the composition. However when reviewing the image I felt that the yellow was to bright and harsh on the image to in photoshop I changed the hue and saturation to make it into a much more warm colour which compliments the overall colour scheme. I made sure that the front light intensity was quite low to reduce the contrast. I had editing the skin of the subject where I altered the highlights and shadows on the facial features like I did previously but much more subtly this time. This time I also ensure that her cheeks looked slightly rosy through the use of the paint tool in photoshop and the decreasing the opacity to make it more subtle. This contributes to the femininity and beauty of the model as it makes her look warmer and also makes it seem as if she if wearing makeup. The made the model do a pose where she flicked her here and I took a picture during the process. By doing this a sense of movement is created through the lines of the hair all pointing in one direction. I still ensured that the subject is making eye contact with the camera in order to allow for a connection with the audience to be made. Her facial expression appears peaceful and relaxed which enhances her beauty as she seems to be effortlessly an elegantly moving. The fact that she is placed in the centre of composition and that a vignette is used allows for the attention to be directed towards the subject, making her be the focal point as desired.
These two images can be compared through their use of the same pose where the subject is standing side on to the camera and performs a hair flick. Whilst doing this, the model in both photos still manages to keep eye contact with the camera, introducing a rather elegant facial expression. Also the cheeks in both samples introduce colour, in the top image a orange tone has been added through makeup and in my photograph I introduced the colour red to contribute to the colour scheme. They both consist of colour schemes but of different natures. The internet image is more neutral with minimal shadow and a lot of brightness, bordering the technique of high key lighting. Whereas my photograph is very feminine, consisting of pinks, purples and reds. The different coloured background contribute greatly to the colour schemes created. Also the compositions and orientations a considerably different as the first image is of a landscape orientation with negative space included; whereas my image is portrait, filling up the majority of the frame.The brightness levels are different as well, as aforementioned the internet image is similar to a high key lighting shoot whereas mine is darker with a vignette applied to drag the attention to the subject. But overall they both create very feminine accounts but in just different ways.
