William Miller - Polaroids

William Miller used a broken Polaroid camera in order to create flawed polaroids which can be evidenced within this post. Each polaroid is unpredictable in terms of the outcome therefore each polaroid is unique and contains different abstract appearances and colours.

This polaroid mainly focuses on the use of colour, which even though this makes the polaroid extremely vibrant, the colour palette is limited. The colours within this photograph are repeated throughout, especially pink, purple and white which are the main colours within this photograph. Whereas the colour green is only use properly once which is found at the top of the photograph. The colours used provide contrast within the photograph as the pink/purple contrasts the white. The photograph contains blurred and out of focus elements which has allowed the colour to run, combing the colours together.

This photograph contains a range of different colours which appear to have run when the photograph has developed allowing colours to be created from this. Due to the colours running this has allowed the photograph create an abstract appearance to the photograph this has also happened due to the subject matter in which the photographer has chose to capture. However the subject matter isn't clear due to the vibrant colours covering the objects supposedly captured.

This photograph focuses on using the colour blue and creating tones from this, resulting in a limited colour palette as the tones are from the colour blue. The colour located at the bottom of the photograph, turquoise, is extremely attractive as this stands out from the colours used and is vibrant. There is contrast within the photograph due to the colours used, as the darker tones contrasts the lighter tones. The photograph also contains an abstract feel due to the different shapes creating on the left and right side which draw the audiences attention.
