I was intrigued by the simplicity of the shadow of the sun playing on the plain wall. I think the focus, exposure, and other aspects of the shot are good. The most interesting thing about this picture is that the shadow is not of a person at all, but a short utility pole. I was drawn to the likeness of a person, and thought it would make a good subject.

Student name: David Type of evaluation (peer). Include name of peer: Cathy Carpenter An interesting play of light; it makes you have to look at it to see that it isn't just graffiti or paint on the wall. It would have been fun to try it with a person to see what you could create by having the person turn and manipulate the shadow. It would have been a little better composition-wise if the silhouette had been turned just a little more so you got a little more depth to the shadow. Add a backpack to the person and you can make a statement about the student who blends into the background or gets lost in the shadows; just a thought. I can't decide if I think the fuzzy edge of the shadow adds or detracts from the overall composition. Comments:
