Story
Size and Scale Works 1
Size and Scale Works 2
Interpretation
For the Size and Scale Work 1, I was inspired by a photography work BUILDINGS MADE OF SKY By American photographer Peter Wegner. He made the shape of sky looks like a building by using the shape and shade of the buildings to cover the sky.
I would say that the sky is definitely larger than the building. But in this case, the sky was covered by the buildings and looks smaller than that. I thought it was a good example of size and scale pictures.

For the Size and Scale Work 2, It was surprise for me to see that the buildings are reflecting each other when I was walking on the street. It's funny that we could saw buildings on a building.
I took pictures of a small building that reflected buildings that were much larger than it as examples of size and scale pictures.
Reflections
I would say that for those pictures I could do better with grabbing the features of it (Size and Scale). People might get confused with my works without looking at the interpretation. I would make it more obvious next time with maybe adding some sketches on it or using Photoshop to make a comparison.
A Story
Interpretation
I also met a few more people, ladies, a guy looks like Michel Jackson, a guy who play Jazz under the bridge. For some reason, they don't want to take a picture on a first thought. I don't know, maybe they want to treat their work more seriously.
I met two ladies in front of the TATE museum they help me with the photo and didn't take the 20 pounds just because they thought I am a college student. I really appreciate them. They only left one name "Izzy".
