Comparison Between Mary And St. Anne

Improved Essays
This image shows Mother Mary talking to her Mother St.Anne. I love this image because as an religious kid, this photograph demonstrates my love for my religion. The quality I like best about this photo is how I edited it. I loved the way I kept the background the same yet I lighten up Mary and St.Anne. The one and only thing I would do differently would be to experiment with the contrast and the brightness a little more or even try this photo in black and white. I had no trouble at all taking this photo and I wouldn 't do anything to change it. The experiences I had while creating this image was that this was one of my very first photos that I edited where the picture really pops to the viewer. I feel like I really brightened up Mary and St.Anne …show more content…
I really like this image because it shows shadow and light very well and most importantly it is a picture that makes me smile everytime I see it. The quality I like best in this photo is the lighting. I think I did a very good job with the lighting by making one side his face light and the other side darker. The only thing I had trouble with while taking this picture was setting up the light to help me get the best shot I could possibly get. It was was challenging setting those things up. I wouldn 't really do anything different for how I set up for this picture. The experiences I had while creating this image were very enjoyable because I got to have my best firmed Hubert model for me during the whole shadow and light project. I created this image by using photoshop and cropping it to 10 by 8. Then all I did was make the dark side of his face darker than the original photo taken. The direction of the light was coming from above and to the left of Hubert. The lighting has the whole effect for this photo to work. To get the shadow that I needed, I had to use a really bright light and angle it at the best of my ability. The lighting really highlights important features as it helps the one side of his face be very bright and the other side of his his face to be very dark. It also creates a shadow that helps make the photograph pop more. The camera was positioned right in front of Hubert 's face. I didn 't hold the camera to take this photo. Instead I used the tripod which helped keep the camera straight and focused on Hubert’s face. I took this photograph when we had to do the shadow and light project. What can be seen clear in this photo is Hubert’s face with one side of the face being with light and the other side of his face being dark with a shadow. When you look at the photo you will see only one side of his face and the other side you can only see

    They say a picture is worth a thousands words I agree with that a picture can say a lot to the viewer, same thing with a painting. The photograph and painting I chose to write about is about Queen Elizabeth. The photograph of Queen Elizabeth was taken in 1952 by Beatrice Johnson and it shows Queen Elizabeth wearing a beautiful crown,a yellow patterned dress, with a sash, and diamond jewelry. In the picture the queen has a slight smile not showing any teeth because, it’s a type of picture where it’s taken serious. What I mean by that is she is someone that is well known and that photograph shows her royalty and her importance by wearing her crown.…

    The Evil Doings of Mary I “A few deaths is just a small price to pay in order to save England from heresy” (Buchanan 13). This was a quote from Mary I as she burned 300 Christians at a stake for committing treason. But in actuality, these people were killed because they didn’t believe what their supreme ruler did. This was a major part of the Middle Ages and Mary I’s legacy because it dealt with the first female hierarchy’s reign, religion, and the hardships she caused.

    Jackson’s paper, “ What Mary Didn't Know” , is about a scientist Mary, who learns all the physical facts within the world from inside an isolated black-and-white room through a black and white TV. When she finally leaves the room, she experiences seeing a red tomato for the first time, and learns new phenomenal truths about what it is like to see the color red. The argument being will she learn something from the actual physical experience of seeing red, or is her prior knowledge enough to dismiss this experience. The knowledge argue infers that, contrary to physicalism, the complete physical truth is not the whole truth. Therefore, claiming all the physical facts of a phenomenon, without actually experiencing it is not enough.…

    The beautiful gold and attention made so eye catching that I had to write about. It’s a wonderful piece of artwork and it would be perfect to stand inside of a church. I wish we knew who the artist was, so that could get the praise for such a wonderful job. I think this one stands out from many of the different The Virgin Mary sculptures during that time because of it’s color and the paintings at the bottom. I feel like the paintings at the bottom brings and emotional feeling to the piece and also adds to the story.…

    Although this thesis is still being revised, it states: Dario Fo had political and social triggers that led him down the path to creating a more modern—and revolutionary—giullare storytelling style that is comprehensible to masses around the world. I chose my focus(es) for multiple reasons. The first is that I need to understand why he revised biblical stories and, specifically, “Mary Under the Cross”. I believe if I understand why he chose it politically and socially, I can connect to it as well and create a better final product. Additionally, it is essential that I comprehend how it was revised by Fo and—hopefully—it will be helpful to my work on the scene.…
