Romain Ricard – The Black Apartment

This image is predominantly dark but there is detail all throughout the image. The glossy tiles are interesting and add depth to the image. The wooden utensils add a nice texture and warmth to an otherwise cool toned colour palette. It’s a good use of portrait orientation, I have seen both landscape and portrait versions of this and prefer this with the rule of thirds and negative space.

I like everythng about this picture. Mixture of chocolate brands used even adds to the picture by not looking too samey. The cloth underneath is textured and cool blue in contrast to the warm brown tones. It looks a mess but has obviously all been placed very carefully to create that look. The spoons and sieve etc are well placed and create an aesthetically pleasing compsition.

It’s just an apple in a box but it’s a stong image. The apples are decaying and give an old feel. The lighting is good, the light coming in in a spotlight style, giving a vignette. It is almost like the apples are hostages in a room with a tiny ray of daylight coming in. Great textures and tones. The positioning of the apples in the corner of the box gives leading lines, rule of thirds, framing and some negative space.
