Final Project Proposal

FINAL PROJECT PROPOSAL

I captured this image three years ago when I was walking the streets in Rome.  When I took the photograph I wasn't aware of the tone of that moment.  Though I managed to capture what now appears to be a shady Italian mob like scene I wasn't aware of that intensity looking through my camera lens.  During that trip I took hundreds of pictures but this image, because of the emotion and people has become my one of my favorites.

Rome, 2009

My goal is to capture candid street scenes that include images of people that could tell a story or gives the viewer a clear intense emotion/reaction.

Examples of desired emotions could be:

Anticipation
Anger
Respect
Lost
Excitement
Sadness
New Love
Trust
Joy
Seduction
Fear

I would like to use the time while I am traveling in Europe to capture some of these images, others may be shot locally.   I would like to challenge myself to pick 3-4 emotions that I will be required to shoot and 3-4 emotions that I can title/define during post processing.

This project will challenge my comfort level behind the camera.  My best work to date has been fine detail still life images where I have complete control of my environment.  My ability to create a tone and shoot with a purpose will develop with this project.   I would like the additional challenge of being given 3 random titles to shoot with intention.  

Street photographer, Alfred Eisenstaedt, creates a mood in his work that I would like to develop in my style.  I like the timelessness of his images.
