My second project’s critique went pretty well. I got the response that I expected at first, but after I explained my photos and why I took them I think people looked at my photos differently and saw the emotion I was going for. I still kept the same feeling for my photographs. I loved my photos because I enjoyed the shooting process and I love the sport of swimming. Seeing my pictures puts a smile on my face and if someone does not like my subject matter or my pictures that is completely fine because I like my photos. I believe that most of the class liked and understood my pictures after I explained them. All in all I think that the critique went well.
A couple of things I would do differently with my photos would be to find a pool that had some water in it. I think I could have captured some sweet pictures if the pool would have had water in it. I would have liked to get a picture of a start while it was happening. I also would have liked to have someone to be my subject matter instead of me. It was tough taking these pictures because I used a self timer. So if the things I would have done differently would be shooting in a pool with water, get an actual start, and use a swimming buddy as the subject, not myself.
