Throughout this term I have noticed the expansion on an area
of the brain I suppose I never noticed before. That doesn’t make sense, does
it? How can I notice the expansion of something I never noticed before
(sometimes I crack myself up. I think I’m over tired).
What I mean is, prior to this class, I noticed if I found
something appealing or if I didn’t. That was pretty much the extent of my
visual literacy. Now when I notice something that I do or do not enjoy, I
better understand why that is.
For instance, why do I find this image
more enjoyable to look at that this…
The top image is obviously an example of a photo that
follows the rule of thirds which is visually more appealing and in my opinion
allows us more opportunity to really “see” the whole photo.
Another really significant thing I learned in this course
are all the legalities of images. I would be terrified to ever create a public
blog in fear of getting sued.
That being said, this is NOT a public blog so here I go and
get it all out of the way.
I have to say though, the absolute most significant thing I
learned this semester is this…
I cannot express my gratitude for this conversation. I had no idea this was actually a thing.
