Work Records: Walk Two

Walk (two)

In this lesson we once again went for a walk outside of college. This time we were still photographing autumn colours but also focusing more on the competition. I think the photos taken in this lesson were better than the last walk lesson as I knew more specifically what I would photograph.

I think this is an effective photo because the flowers have a very sharp focus and the detailed outline can be seen contrasting against the green background. The flowers also look as if they have a sort of frost glisten to them showing the autumn weather fitting with the lessons aim.

I think that this is an effective photo because the tree shows the autumn colours, the bareness of the tree and the colour of the sky in the reflection of a puddle. I think this photo shows lots of different aspects of autumn weather in one photo. The photo is also good for the competition as it literally shows reflection.

I don't really think this photo is very interesting as too many things are happening at once. There is the reflection of the puddle, the shoes and the reflection of the body and the fence. I think this then makes it difficult to know where to look or what the focus of the photo is. I think to improve this photo I would decide on a particular centre point for the photo and decide what I want to achieve by taking this photo.

Work Records: Walk One

Walk (one)

In this lesson we went for a walk out of the college. The original aim for the lesson was to photograph autumn colours but unfortunately the leaves were still not green. We were then just photographing things that could be used for the competition with 'quiet reflection' in mind. I think some of the photos I took turned out very well and fitted with the title, others I feel could have been improved on.

I like this photograph because the sun creates an interesting glow in the trees creating quite an interesting unique photo. I also like that the angle looks up from below the trees emphasising the height and power of the trees.

I think this is an effective photo because the blackberry's are central and I like the way they are all red except the one in the middle which has changed to black. I think this is a good representation of the changing seasons which fits with the autumn colours. The blackberry's are also in focus where as the background blurs slightly which I would emphasize if I was to edit the photo.

I don't think this photo is very effective or a very interesting photo. Although the photo shows autumn red it doesn't really show much else. The photo is a little boring as it only shows one of the autumn colours.
