The photographer I choose for the assignment is a German photographer Alfred Ehrhardt. I’m interested in imitating his works because of the unique textures and patterns he includes in his photos. His pictures are mostly about nature.

All of the pictures I took might follow specific pattern or has unique textures which are similar to the original one. I think it’s interesting how nature has its own rule of organizing creatures. Although each of the creature has its own unmacthed texture but when they are mixed together, there is another possibility. I made all of the photos to black and white since I have done these before, this is my first try of doing it.I took these pictures in the community I live right now. There are not a lot of plants there so I would minimize the scene. For the first photo, I placed it in the vertical form to look closer to a path that people walk. I could not find some real flowers so I decided to use leaves for the second imitation. For the third one, the texture of the rock is quite interesting. It is bumpy and rough which forms the contrast witht he original one.
