Feather, Jon Fishback, published in the 91st Edition of the Speed ​​Magazine Extension

Editor -in -chief comment

When I was still in high school, our physics teacher taught our most basic scientific method -observation. I remember the assignment that the teacher arranged for us was: writing as much as possible to the independent and unique observation of a pencil. The 50 -minute course became extremely long because we wrote more than a dozen things observed. At the end of the course, the teacher said to us, "Everything you write now is not good. To get the score of 'c' in this job, you need to write 100 things other than the pencil other than the list. ; If you can write more 100 more, then you can get 'B'; if you can write more 100 more, you can get the score of 'a'. "Every time I think about it, I always feel that this job is for the photography primary class. For students, it is also a great practice.

Jon Fish Buck reflects the essence of this challenge with his series of works "feathers". How many different ways can be presented in an image? This attractive creative challenge is also a technical challenge, targeting related technologies such as light, color balance, and composition. After the project is successful, it seems to give people a feeling that it is not difficult to do. On the surface, there are only 31 images about feathers in his project, but what really makes it deserved is that there are no repetition in these works. Each picture composition uses shape, color, light, and even emotional content to achieve a unique combination. All these are presented in the background of black, which makes this project more complicated and difficult. He didn't even allow any background changes to avoid introducing another variable in the project.

Of course, what we don't know is that when he completed this project, how many additional images were excluded from the final display, but Jon knew. Perhaps he felt that there were some repetitions in these images; perhaps from the perspective of photography, they were just not as good as these "compatriots brothers" performed well. The important thing is that he surpassed himself and shooting the pictures we may only encounter in dreams. I believe that in this book, every photographer you see can shoot an interesting image about feathers. After all, the appearance and symbolic significance of feathers are very interesting. But can you complete 31 interesting images? Or 100?
