Peter Kern-My New Topographics

I really enjoyed New Topographics and found its message very timely and interesting. I was much more attracted to that and new that for this project I would go exploring and try to find a landscape that I connected with. I found an area much more interesting than what I used for my two hour photo project and wish I could go back and do it here. I drove up to Vivian Park in Provo Canyon and drove up some roads I had never driven. I ended up at Big Springs Park. From there a short walking distance led me to some very interesting sights. I strove to capture the manmade geometric shapes juxtaposed upon the mountain landscapes of the Wasatch.






This one kind of breaks from the rest but it is one of my favorites. Its almost as if the owners were purposefully trying to give me good material to work with.








This is my attempt at capturing the ubiquity of phone poles that I was talking about in class.

  3. I like the sense of colors and the interesting location. The only thing I would change is to vary the angles and positions at which I took the photos. This would make them even more exciting. Good job at going out and finding a good place to shoot.

  4. I like how the colors in all of the photos tie them together, but I agree that there could have been fewer photos.
