Description

In this episode of the Study podcast, our host, Julia, analyzes two powerful photographs from different series to help us understand their composition, lighting, color usage, and overall effects. The podcast starts with 'Not the same anymore,' a series by the photographer Amit, where he captures the impact of urbanization on his hometown, Bhaktapur. Julia explores the blurred house image, acknowledging its metaphorical representation of fading memories of a transforming city. Following this, she dives into Amit's picture from the 'A walk by' series which illustrates the liveliness of everyday Bhaktapur. Julia discusses how the intentional blurriness and color contrasts capture a dynamic element of motion. This episode provides listeners with an in-depth understanding of the art of photography and the narratives it can convey.
