3 Partner Pictures- Ozkar Alvarez

This picture has such a nice blend of colors in the sky. The sun seems to shine a reddish sort of colors to the clouds that help frame the picture. The only improvement I can see is to have the trees to come into the front of the frame of the picture.
The San Diego skyline is portrayed perfectly in this picture. Ozkar captures the sun just as it is about to set behind the skyline and he even captures a boat floating on the bay. In my honest opinion I don't think this picture could be improved because it is beautiful.
The reason I liked this picture is because in its simplicity it shows a sense of family bond between a brother and a sister who are enjoying each others company. They seem to just be enjoying sitting in a tree and I always have liked nature pictures. The only thing I would fix is just the quality should be a little better.

one page of notes

This picture uses colors to depict a sort of silhouette style with the trees. The dark colors of the trees contrast really well with the pastel colors of the sky. The photographer portrays a sense of simple beauty by using nature and its gorgeous beauty. 
Photography by Eagle-Photography
This picture is simple yet it has a very authentic look which is contributed by the gray scale style that the photographer uses. I like to look for vintage things so this picture caught my eye instantaneously.  
The reason I like this picture is because the lighting looks really good and it gives it a sort of silhouette feeling to it. The photographer took the picture at the right moment when she was blowing to water so the picture captures the specs floating because of the wind. Its an overall beautiful picture.
