PhotoBlog #2

I found this photo on National Geographic.com. It was taken by Harry Taylor. This picture was taken in Spring 2010. I really enjoyed how the bird was on top of a cactus and how vivid and in focus this picture was. The way the photographer achieved the vividness of the picture made it absolutely breathtaking. I think this is a very interesting subject and how Taylor captured it was most likely challenging and a tough job. This work he put into the photo makes me appreciate it much more. This picture was taken in Natural Lighting which makes it much more vivid and cool. The emphasis is most definatley placed on the bird and the cactus. Harry Taylor also uses this focus to make rule of thirds and a contrast against the blue background. I think the photographer is trying to communicate the beauty and how gorgeous nature is. Taylor wants people to recognize if you just look around, the world is a beautiful place.
