Fiqry's photograph of the "creepy castle" reminded me of the work of photographer Mark Citret. This photograph is interesting to me because of the way the photographer uses angles and a wide range of tones. Because of the even grey tone in the sky, the shape appears to pop out toward the viewer creating an optical illusion. To view more of Mark Citret's work, click on the link :http://www.mcitret.com/

The Creepy Castle
This image was made by Fiqry Baharudin in a traditional darkroom photography class. Throughout the year students experiment with alternative darkroom techniques to create interesting effects in their images. Solarization is a darkroom technique where the image is exposed to light while it is in the developer chemical."I took this picture in Smithsonian. I was inspired to make an “old and creepy looking castle” in one of my photos. I used the technique solarization to give the sense of creepy and it came out pretty good." Fiqry Baharudin
