Irony and Beauty

The first photo is a very simple photo of a daffodil. Daffodils often represent something not so simple though. Daffodils are often associated with cancer as many charities such as the Canadian cancer society use daffodils as their logo. I took this picture for the ironic sake that the subject and the picture seem very simple, but in actuality the subject, and even the picture represent something incredibly complicated. This photo breaks the rules because I did not use rule of thirds at all, I did not create depth of field, i just pointed, focused and shot.  

  

The second picture dealt with the same ironic ideas as the first one. When you see a bench like the one in the picture you often see people sitting on it, these people are often not simple people, but people siting and thinking deeply. But this bench was empty and simple and represented that ironic picture of nothing. While there were no deep thoughts coming from anything on the bench, I still believe the photo itself represented a deep thought. This picture I literally did nothing but point at the bench and click the shutter, the picture is also a little off center and looks tilted. 

The third photo I wanted to try and get as close to that field of blue flowers as I could and make it look like a never ending sea of blue flowers. I did this by basically putting the camera in the flowers and then taking the actual picture I tried to keep the flowers off of rule of thirds but unfortunately it looks like it is. I thought there was a beauty to those pictures and by showing some of them in focus and the rest out of focus I could show that exclusive beauty best.
