The Pen ...: A Senior Surreal Photo by Jackson Bartlett (2013)

The Pen is Mightier than the Sword - This piece is open to any interpretation, but has an overarching theme of the individual desire to express one's most intimate and abstract thoughts through some form of medium. I used the picture of a person holding a pen to their head to represent the medium and also to illustrate the ''pen is mightier than the sword'' axiom. This was created using HDR photography, a technique where the photographer takes three identical pictures, each with a different F-Stop, then merges them in Photoshop to capture a broader range of light and color than could be obtained from just one picture. I also created a texture, taking a photo for the background and introducing a motion blur to make it look like the wall was speeding by at a great velocity.
