From beginning to the last photo, I put myself to a task and decided to notice my cat, Christopher. Before I jump onto the similarities and differences in these photos, I’d like to include an on-the-spot analysis that occurred during my presentation of these pictures to the group table:
It’s a totally different feeling when you are viewing your work with others to see what it is about. I could say that this is my analysis of the photos I took during the moment where I could feel my photos being critiqued. With the real analysis now, everyone who views this photo could say that there is one similar subject throughout these images; my cat. I made it a point to have my cat as an ongoing theme in the photo because of their cautious nature. I tend to notice Christopher less because, in a household of two cats and a dog, there’s a lot of attention to go around. I did not find in any way difficult to photograph this cat, only except when he was not around or was in the same position as the previous photo. When it came to those kinds of conditions, I had to compensate and use the same photo from the same day. Another point I also wanted to iterate was for me to witness my cat being in a completely different space each day – I wanted that to be the aspect that was different for each and every photo. So to summarise, the similarity was that my cat was always present but I managed to give unusual attention to one of my three pets. The difference with these photos was that they are unique in their own way – it was in a different location each day (except for two of these images) and my cat was always doing something different.
I managed to notice my cat (see the unseen)!
