Making a Living By

use light in a way that will give an illusion of physical depth and texture, highlight what is important or create a mood.

main goal is to make an image that can captivate the viewer and do justice to my subject.

Technique Used

In most of Mitchell picture, he love to use natural lighting to capture and convey what his subject is feeling

Before he started off, he always communicate with his subject. Or at least made eye contact before started shooting.

Lesson Learnt

Uses the golden hour, that is natural lighting. playing but that is enough to convey the message of how happy the kids are. This picture, did convey that no matter where the kids and how poor they are, they are still kids. They will always enjoy themselves. And this fact, is constant no matter where we go

Opinion

Golden hour, the time before sunrise. He was able to capture the moment when the fisherman try their hardest to push the boat into the sea so that they could earn a living for their family.

Opinion

It’s a simple yet really beautiful picture. It shows how everyone is paying full attention towards the script they are reading but, at that very moment. That kid turn and smile break the tense environment. It just reminds me to enjoy every moment and everything we do in life.

Opinion

After a day of tiredness, the old man were going back home after work. Although he is alone but the way Mitchell captures it, it seems like the bird and the dog were accompanying him. Flying and walking alongside him.

Opinion

A picture of a few man playing chess in a public bath. Although they were in the bath, they were not the same as the others, talking to each other. They choose to play a mind game when the heat is so strong. And yet, when everyone is so serious towards the game, this old man stop and stare at the camera getting a shock. It makes us to not be afraid to break from the normal.
