This photograph, created by Finlay Mckay displays great focus and sharpness on the subject at hand, yet the clouds and dark greenery creates a subtle negativity within the picture. This almost dull outlook on the general aesthetic can be disappointing to a viewer as the athlete displays great focus and determination, yet the general outlook of the colours presents little hope. This could represent the characters need to complete his task even while he ventures onwards through the darker roads.
Contrastingly, this image by Toby Glanville gives off a generally relaxing vibe due to the gentle light resting on the teacher and the back wall. The dull green, although not that pleasing on the eye, presents a sense of long existence (which could tie into the character) as the colour is aged and visually out of fashion. The subtle light and the subtle smile all present tiny quirks that can generally make the audience assume a positivity from gazing at this image, which somewhat differs to that of the image above.
Lastly, this image by Ulrich Gebert presents itself in a middle ground. The character has focus, yet the image shows strong primary colours. The use of strong and vibrant colours is simple, so it's easy on the eye and therefore pleasing to look at. The image places itself nicely in-between the first and second above, as the vibe given can be positive, and the expression shown is similar to McKay's character. I would say that there is a sense of hope, more so when compared to McKay's, but the subtlety of colour is not present. The colours are vastly different, with the lighting being much higher key.
This image has a sense of documentation shown, much like the second image, whereas the first image has a constructed, almost commercial aesthetic. The first image and the third's characters share a similar desire to keep focus on the task, but the general vibe of the second and third are more alike in there positivity.
