STILL
Retail - These are my favorite photos that Bjornson has on his portfolio site. I really love the lighting and shadows. The bright use of colored objects, tastefully grouped, makes each image captivating and beautiful.
Fashion - I admired the creativity that Bjornson used with particular subjects, including the see-through jacket with green opaque gloves placed in each pocket.
Colorfield - These photos are remarkable because they are simple and in context. The viewer can glance over the photos quickly, and still get a sense of artistic creativity by use of sharpness and bold color.
Place - Each photo is uniquely inviting to the viewer. These interior space photographs have the innate feeling of welcoming the viewer to join the table (where a chair is pulled out), eat some fruit (a full bowl sits next to an empty bowl), or the lighting in a living/grand room describes a place to relax and be at peace (almost like a summertime appeal).
CONSUMABLE
Food as Art - I really liked the "coconut shrimp" image the best. Bjornson shows a creative way of labeling food by carefully-planned-out imagery.
Late Nite Food - The sense of greasy, intense-lit food in this section reminds me of a late nite, old vintage Hollywood diner. Bjornson effectively captured the food's appeal.
Gastronomy - I enjoyed looking at these photos that were used in advertisements, magazine layouts, and catalogs! The photos are very artistic and convey a message to the viewer that markets each item successfully.
NATURE
After the Frost - These photos were the most simple, but had strong shadows that cast an image of a cold winter, snowy day.
Weeds - These were my favorite nature photos mostly because he livened the weeds up by showcasing the brightest colored weeds, which definitely look like backyard flowers.
The Marsh - These photos remind me of movies that are filmed in woodland, marshy areas. There's definitely a sense of vulnearability and tunnel vision because the photo is so busy with sticks and trees, making it nearly impossible to escape.
