Dreams of Flying, by Jan Von Holleben
The Aladdin
The colours of this photo are bright, which makes it quite fun and interesting to look at. The left side of the photo has a darker lighting which makes the sand look very texturized. The colour of the little trees area also a lovely shade of green.
The Ghostbusters
The overall lighting of this photo is on more of the darker side. The white ghost stands out compared to it's dark background. Thus, it stands out and becomes the focus point. It is the first thing you notice in the photo, then after you notice the boys with the vacuums and realize that they are ghostbusters. The leaves on the ground also stand out a bit and that gives the ground more texture.
The Astronauts
In my opinion, this photo is very well thought out and planned. The black background makes the planets and the astronauts stand out. Overall, it is very interesting and well done.
Jan von Holleben
In 1977, Jan von Holleben was born in Cologne and raised in the southern German countryside. He identifies a strong connection between the development of his photography and the influence of his parents, who were a cinematographer and a child therapist. When he was thirteen years of age, he began to follow in his father's foot steps by first picking up a camera and experimenting with all sorts of photographic "magic tricks". He went to Pädagogische Hochschul, in Freiburg, to study teaching children with disabilities. He moved to London afterwards and, at the Surrey Institute of Art and Design, he earned a degree in Theory and History of Photography. He later worked as a picture editor, art director and photographic director. He set up two photographic collectives, Young Photographers Unit and photodebut, followed recently by the Photographer's Office. He very much enjoys having a cup of green tea, Bircher Müsli, colorful socks and shoes, riding his bike and taking a walk in the mountains.
