Assignment 3

Me and my dad's workspace

True Story

Corner O' Tools

My Paint Gun

My Baby


The theme of this project was my garage. I chose this place because i spend a lot of time in here, either working on my car and bike, or just when I'm mad and just want to get away. A garage, to me, is the only place in the house where a man can make it look however he wants and not have listen to his wife/ girlfriend about cleaning and what not. The garage is a man's getaway and it's not suppose to be clean or presentable. The garage is where a man can get dirty and greasy and not have to worry about staining something.
My pictures for this assignment have digital noise in them. I made them like that on purpose because they look dirty and imperfect. Just like a garage, my pictures do not have any depth or other meaning, there are exactly what they look like.
I chose these five specific pictures simple because they define my garage. Ever single picture that you see here showcases me and my dad's garage. All of the pictures do not necessarily tie together or correlate with each other, they are just the main things that make up the garage, except for the paint gun. I put the paint gun in here because I've always loved cars and my dream is to one day build a car. The paint gun was my dad's but he recently gave it to me and soon he is going to teach me how to paint a car.
I did not do barely any editing except for histogram and i cropped one picture. My reasoning behind that is that a garage is whatever it looks like. There are no bells and whistles, there is nothing special, whatever you see is what it is.

  1. I like your first photo. I love all the shapes coming together to form all the objects in your garage.

  2. The first photo is interesting because the TV is a rectange, which is inside another rectangle, which is held in the rectangular photograph. The recurring theme of rectangles/squares is unique.

  3. This is a wonderful collection of images depicting your garage, a space where both you and your father spend a lot of time. I enjoy that, though the images, the objects in the garage become like portraits of the two individuals that use the space. You did a good job showing various elements, and including both establishing and detail images in order to build an overall impression of the garage.
