Page 28 - Observations/Inferences

Observations:

• Top figure is taken “more zoomed in”
• Bottom figure has a blue-green hue on each picture
• The labels use completely different fonts
• There is more spacing between the images in the bottom figure than the top figure
• The black backgrounds of the labels in the bottom figure are not as carefully placed into the corners as others in top figure (they are also much bigger in the bottom figure)
• In picture a of top figure, the tree is more centered in the frame than in picture a in the bottom figure
• In picture b of the top figure the focus is very clearly the  “hole” in the tree vs the bottom picture b you can see some of the background behind the tree both picture a’s were taken at different angles
• The lighting in the pictures is very different on the trees

Inferences:

• The photographer for the bottom figure may have been shorter and unable to get exact angles/correct amount of zoom on the tree
• The photographer for the bottom figure may not have realized there was a filter on their camera/didn’t use the same camera as the photographer in top figure
• There may not have been specific directions on what exact font to use for the labels/how big to make the squares
• There may not have been exact directions on how wherein the frame the subject’s should have been (ex. In the middle)
• The amount of space between images may not have been defined in the methods
• The pictures may have been taken at different times of day/in different weather and could have caused different shadows on the tree

Paragraphs:

The top and bottom figures generally look alike. However, there is quite a distinct difference in the hues of the photos. The top figure has a natural daylight hue opposed to the bottom figure which has a blue-green hue. This coloring distracts from what the images are attempting to display. This difference could have occurred under a couple conditions such as the photographer did not realize there was a filter on their camera or they did not use the same camera as the photographer did in the top figure.

Another apparent difference is the size of the objects in each image. The top figure appears to be more zoomed in/objects look larger in each of the photos than the bottom figure. This can clearly be seen when comparing photos and viewing the background. This may have been a difference because of different settings on the camera, such as the zoom being different. This also could be because the photographer in the top photo may have been taller than the photographer in the bottom photo.
