PhotoText Reflection- Re-posted

     I like the use of layers and multiple pictures in my images. It adds more depth and makes the image more abstract. I also like that most of my pictures were black and white (except for a few) and then I added colour by using Photoshop tools, filters and brushes. I like how my images do not illustrate my lyrics but are related. I had tried to give my images a certain emotion or atmosphere. I think I accomplished this which is something I am also happy with. I like the abstractness given by the different opacities. I also like the position of the text within the image so that the pictures do not only sit on top of the image, but are put as a part of the image.
      What I find the least successful within this image is that th image may not be related enough to the image. Also I do not like in the first image the many clocks which doesn’t seem to have a reason, nor does it accomplish anything. I also do not like how the brushes seem to random and instead of adding to the image, or bringing the image together it distracts the viewer. I also find that the images look very similar, because they all incorporate a various amount of pictures, some of the same.
     One thing I would improve had I had the opportunity to redo this assignment is to make the images match the lyrics more (or perhaps picked different lyrics) and created images that looked less alike. I wish I hadn’t used so many dark colours which created a very dull image.
   The Image which was the most successful out of the three, I think was the second image (the purple and yellow image) because  the image has the most colour, the text was well placed and I like the house in the bottom right  corner.  I find the image uses brushes in a good way- which doesn't distract from the image or the lyrics.  I also like that you can tell the lyrics are more important than the image.  I also like the use of the picture of the fence.
