SP w6 Series and selecting

Another thing Clare asked me last week was to see if I could make series of images by the motion they evoke; so I did.

The three words I used were pleasing, disturbing and alienating. Then I had a column for "not sure" and "not". It is not that they do not evoke feelings with me but I just think they do not fit in the whole.

Of course, if you ask various people which photo they would post where, you will get different results. With regard to the "pleasing" column, I think that a photo will be experienced as pleasant sooner, if it refers to something that is familiar to the viewer. Color and color psychology naturally also contribute.

Does this exercise help? It certainly helps to analyze the images made better and to be more intensively involved. It also helps to separate lesser images from the good ones. I will certainly not place them next to each other on the basis of these criteria. Because I think the mix of pleasant and disturbing or alienating images has a greater effect.

Seeing the photos together makes it clear to me that the "not sure" column will end up with the "not".

Tried to set them in the order of hue but works less for me.

The next question; what is working together?

I made some combinaties to invest that part and off course it gets harder the less images that are left. I put them together on feeling and liking, nothing more, nothing less. Next week I will get these printed at different paper and sites to see how they react away from the screen.

Conclussions: If I now look at the ways in which I first selected the images for content and color and then put them next to each other in a way that works for me, what does stand out?

In all combinations I have placed "pleasant", "alienating" and "disturbing" images together and the colors / color contrasts are large so that the photos stand out better and do not fall apart.

This exercise provided more insight of ​​how I unconsciously put photos together.
