The inspiring work of Jenny Okun

While researching, 10 of my most favourite photographers, I came across one named Jenny Okun. At first I really didnt know who she was, to me she was just a name on a web page with no photograph named as hers. So I decided to look further into her, when I came along this piece.


I found this piece particularly fascinating. There were a couple things that I immediately loved about it. The composition is beautiful. It was great contrast between the light and the dark tonal values. The double exposure creates a great feeling of depth to the piece. The thing I loved the most was the abstract quality to the photograph. The use of lines creates a feeling of ongoing motion and portrays how tall these buildings really are.

Overall this was my favourite piece, throughout this project, based on my notes above. :)
