#14____Unknown vs. Familiar Space: When photography was invented, it became a way to document and reveal the specific aspects of both familiar and faraway places. Imagine a familiar place. Imagine a faraway place. How would you use photographs to convey the difference? Can you imagine any places that have been “touched” very little by humans? How might you photograph them?
For me I think the framing and lighting of the places I have in mind would be very important. The close place is one in downtown Grand Rapids in which there are many city lights and generally a fair amount of traffic. The best lighting and framing would be during the night time with a long shutter speed. I'd like to convey how busy the scene is. The other scene is a field in Spain (in a park). It lines the ocean and has very steep cliffs. The framing would be to just barely capture the edge of the cliffs and have a sunrise in the distance. The lighting would be very different because of the lower sun and ambient light.
