5 Examples of Theatrical Photos

New Years in Pictures

this was my favourite picture because it shows how much the people are excited

and also the balloons look cool..... :)

the event is of people freeing balloons to celebrate the New Years

at Tokyo's Zojoji temple on Jan.1, 2011

the image documents the event by capturing the moment when the poeple let go of their balloons

and wish their new year's wishes

(and the people at the bottom taking pictures look really excited)

the subject is obviously the balloons that are set free

the subject is emphasized by repetition and also framing with the people on the bottom

the people on the bottom makes the balloons stand out :)

my new year's resolutions :

1. get fit

2. get successful academically

3. be a responsible person



Year in Photos

this picture was my favourite because it makes you take another look at the picture,

including the trees on the back

the event was a volcanic erruption in Muntilan, central Java, Indonesia

from Mount Merapi

the farmer is walking through the ash-covered cornfield

(Nov.8th, 2010)

the image perfectly documents the event because it shows how the crops were ruined by the erruption

and the farmer's devastated state

the palm trees in the back also shows the serious situation

the subject is the farmer, but I think that the subject is more of the crops

because that's the most important aspect of the people's lives

repitiion plays a huge role in the picture, and also the emphisis on the subject(farmer)
