  1. I really enjoy number 17. It is very mysterious and really makes you think. I love the reflection of the lighting on part of the figure.

  2. Hi Alexandra! Your photos number 2 and 4 have a very cool and mysterious composition to them. I like the motion in them, giving them the feel that there was something going on in the photo, yet they also have a still subject in them. Those, along with 17, are my favorite. 17 has great focus and angle, along with some great mood lighting that gives that object on the table a little more mystery. However, I would work on your focus in some of your other photos. Some seem a little mistakenly blurry/grainy. Overall, good set!

  3. Hi Alexandra, I really likes number one and two. In number two I like the movement of the person walking and the angle you used to see the person who is selling the pictures.

  4. 17 is my favorite of the group. The different shades of color on the butterfly adds a cool effect for me. The light source added another important dimension of this photo casting shadows and the reflection on top of the butterfly. I think the framing of the picture adds a lot of value here, I really like the angle that you approached the object from, well done.

  5. Hey Alexandra-

    17 is also my favorite. I can't quite tell what it is which adds an element of mystery. Is it a butterfly? I also love the use of reflective light. Nice job! Close second would be #4. Although it could be a little more focused the motion is really interesting and caught me eye. I keep coming back to it.

  6. My favorite photo of yours is #4 because of the motion in it. I think that adds a lot of mystery, especially because everything is in motion (probably you taking the photo as well.) However, i like that the focus is on the man walking in the center. It might be a little more interesting if he was off to the side a bit, but I still think it’s an intriguing photo. I think that you have some interesting perspectives on everyday objects but they are very recognizable.

  7. Alexandra-

    My favorite image of yours is number 18. I love the texture and the reflection of the light on the subject. I also really loved 17. You definitely captured mystery in your pictures.

  8. number 6 is my favorite. you hit the mark with some of the mystery here. honestly, i think if you try shooting something more natural you'll find something good. some of these seem a little forced or pre-mediated. thats just my opinion but i really do enjoy natural looking photos. you definitely have a diverse line up here though, good job.
