Haslehurst use light to guide the eye around the photo by using lens flare or darkening parts of the photo so the eye focuses on the subject and takes in the emotion of them.
Most of Haslehurst photos contain one subject who always seems lost and give the feeling of seclusion and loneliness. she always uses color in her photos even tho black & white can create emotion, the reason this work is because of the subject and how they are placed in the scene. |
