Light Leaked Blog Review
Photo Friday: Ashley Whitt
December 7, 2012
This Blog Post mostly focuses on the artist, Ashley Whitt, providing a short blurb of her biographical information. Rather than dedicating the entire post to talking about her work, it shows a handful of her pieces to let us do the talking.
The article is very easy to follow, very straightforward. Other than the short biographical section, the article is dedicated to displaying her images. Over all Whitt's work comes across as very dark. All of her images seem to have a dark filter or vignette as well as seemingly dark content (like the image above that appears to depict a dad/dying/sick girl). Despite them being so dar however, there seems to be a sort of playfulness to them, which is most apparent towards the end of the post.

This picture provides the best example of her dark playfulness. It looks like a dreamland, giant flowers and fruit, but at the same time, the darkness of the filter make it eerie.
Overall I like her work because of the dark yet playful feel. I particularly liked her multiple me images and the emotion they depict. To see the rest of the article check here.
Aperture Magazine Blog Review
Denise Wolff on Aperture's Instagram Silent Auction
October 16, 2013
This very short article is more so just an announcement and reminder of Aperture's Instagram Silent Auction (which took place Monday, October 28). Ultimately, there is not much to critique about the blog post itself due to the nature of he post. The auction will be selling off nearly 100 pieces of photography, all from Instagram profiles. The money will be put towards an unspecified benefit.
As a whole the article is very straightforward and easy to follow. Included in the post is a small sampling of some pieces that will be available during the auction (including the one above). Image content ranges anywhere from still lifes to animals, documentary to collage, personal to conceptual. The concept in its entirety is intriguing for the very fact that these pieces are all from Instagram. I find that this really shows the prevalence of technology and social media in today's society.
