entry #2.

a.) The primary subject matter in this photograph is a combination between the bride and the architecture.

b.) Most relevant Form in regard to the interpretation of this piece would be:
color, point of view, distance of camera, depth of field, frame and edge.

c.) Interpretation: I think this piece is such a interesting piece because it isn't your average wedding picture. It is a piece about architecture and portraits all at the same time. I would love for my wedding pictures to be as creative as these.

d.) Form: This piece has a great sense of line. There is a lot of repetition in these lines that create. The color is very vibrant as well. It creates a very strong contrast to the white bridal dress. The repetition in the architecture creates very rapid textures contrasting very smooth ares as well. Everything appears to be in focus and the off set bride in the frame makes a very interesting composition.

Subject: The subject is this woman and her wedding in San Juan Puerto Rico. This photographer followed a young couple around San Juan in the days following their wedding ceremony in what he calls The Day After Session. Del Pilar presented his series of photographs as a wedding gift to them.

Redefine: I think this piece has such a interesting turn on wedding photos. First, it is very interesting that this bride seems be alone against such large amounts of architecture. Often times wedding pictures are taken without a plain back drop and also with the groom or family. However this one is different. This is more about the place that has affect the bride and who she is today. Its not about her completely on this day- it is about her heritage in this place that has made here who she is today.
