When looking at the photograph, the viewer’s eyes are drawn to the focal point which is the girl lying on her boyfriend looking at the stars. They stand out because of the lightness shining upon them. Aesthetically, it is very pleasing to look at because of the light hues which bring out the whole image. The tone of the photograph shows shades of darkness that circles the photograph. The field of brown in the background demonstrates values of brown and yellow. The image balances out the colors which treats each color and part equally.
I’ve been so alone, and even worse than being alone I have cancer. But ever since I’ve been with my new boyfriend, things have been amazing! Although my dad made him leave once he dropped me off at my house, I got out of it by meeting him at this field to be with him more. It was so romantic. He brought us not only one blanket but two. He makes me feel so comfortable. He even brought me hot chocolate for the morning. And not only that, he named a star after me! It was the best moment of my life, I couldn’t ask for anything better. I love him.
