“All It Takes 07” is a lovely photo made more dramatic and interesting by being backlit. I love the slight diagonal of the bridge. By being backlit as it is, it becomes more about form, the colors are subdued so they don’t draw our eyes away from the beautiful forms. Avilien has a fascination with form that is realized, not just by this kind of backlighting, but also by zooming in on specific elements.
This is the first in the “All It Takes” series. Again the subdued coloring focuses our attention on form. Avilien is using the rule of thirds to frame the picture, with the newspaper and hat on that line that pleases our eyes.
“Tomorrow 02” is perhaps more representative of her stream as she does like to show a lot of skin and is often more revelatory than this. What I like about this series is how she finds elements in the scene and highlights them in a triptych format. She highlights her outfit, but also adds elements that make her pictures much more interesting.
Avilien’s photostream is a fun collection of photo sets featuring one setting and outfit with several ways of focusing on bits and pieces of the setting and outfit. It’s interesting to see how she finds small elements to feature.
