Team-Up Thursday - Negative Space

Jen and I decided on the theme negative space this week. I had seen a few of the other teams do this and just loved what they came up with. We also thought it would help us to get creative.

I had originally thought I would take a picture of something that was represented by negative space but I was unable to find that. Like a cutout of a cross at a church. I actually drove different routes home to try and find something of that nature. Then one night when the boys were playing in the tub I had my camera and Nicolo kept looking at himself in the cover-plate in the tub. When I went through the photos I found this one and love it and the negative space.

I just love the colors in Jen's and how the flower looks like it's reaching for the sun. I also like the contrast of her vivid colors against mine in B&W.

  1. Cara, this photo is one of those that makes you go, "Now why didn't *I* think of that?" I love that Nicolo is slightly out of focus, but that his reflection jumps out at you tack sharp. Great take on the theme. :)

  4. very, very cool dip. yours could hang with the reflections gals this week, too:). i'm especially drawn to the fact that both photos draw the eye the same way, makes the viewer linger longer. i'm going to have to try negative space as a theme!

  7. Goodness, his face in the reflection just makes it. Love how his little eyelashes barely there point right through the space to the reflection. Awesome.
