Originally, still life images were mainly done in paintings. The picture of the cabbage is an example of that. This painting captures the beauty of a cabbage in a different way than the photo. The beauty of this cabbage is portrayed in the colour scheme of green, yellow and blue. This gives the painting a certain flare which interests the viewer to stop and look at this piece with adoration. Which is the same factor as the photo. Still life images were later adopted into photography in the 20th century.

BestIn my opinion I believe this is my best photo. The use of the ambient light adds a touch of professionalism, it makes the pepper look fresh and makes the viewer want to eat it. The use of the shallow depth of field makes the viewer drawn to the pepper and able to view those smaller, finer details. The use of the white background makes the vibrancy of the pepper stand out and makes viewers drawn into the image.

WorstI believe this is my worst image. The camera was out of focus which resulted in the photo being blurry. I also think my exposure was too low as it looks a little out of place, the pepper blends with the back ground and in my opinion I think its a little unsettling. The shallow depth of field makes the background a focus point rather than the pepper being the focus point. The lighting in this image makes it look dull. I should have changed my exposure whilst taking these photos.

BestI like to believe this is my best photo due to the shallow depth of field, this means it is focusing on the part closest to the camera and blurring the part which is further away. This makes the photo look full but not overwhelming. The angling of this image makes it looks more interesting since its not all up in your face but more to the sides.

WorstI believe this is my worst photo, I say this because the focus point is on the leaf instead of the inside of the sun flower, which was the intended focus point. I also think the image is too full leading it to be overwhelming to look at, even whilst its blurred its still too complicated to look at. To improve this I could have checked my focus and changed the cropping of the image to one more close up.

WorstIn my opinion, I believe this is my worst photo. My opinion comes from the camera being out of focus. This resulted in the image becoming blurry. The light from the lights are overpowering everything else in the photo which makes it complicated and hard to look at. To improve this I could double check my focus before taking a photo.

BestI firmly believe this is my best photo. This is because the image has warm tones which makes it feel comforting and calming. It gives off a warm and safe environment which makes it pleasing to look at. The depth of field has almost the entire picture in focus but the contrast of colours makes it a good image. This is because the lights stand out from the dark background.
