Image Essay # 1


The image I have chosen is a silhouette of couple dancing in a projected background . This piece shows human relationship through a sense of color choices with balance of light and dark colors. This work has a selective focus through the camera angles. They do not show any facial expression. Silhouettes are most often made by a skilled silhouette artist by looking at a subject's profile, whether in person or from a photograph, and simply cutting out their likeness freehand. With the silhouettes blended into the background it catches ones eye with how intense the background is, but still gives you a sense of a passion between the couple. A (digital) color image is a
digital image that includes color information for each pixel.For visually acceptable results, it is necessary (and almost sufficient) to provide three samples (color channels) for each pixel, which are interpreted as coordinates in some color space. The RGB color space is commonly used in computer displays, but other spaces such as YCbCr, HSV, and are often used in other contexts. Overall, I like this picture because of how it is displayed, I also like how everything is eye catching and makes one think about how the artist captured this moment.
