Work Diary - Walk 3

Evaluation

I really enjoyed walk 3. I took these pictures at home so they consisted of a lot of nature as i live in the countryside. I produced a lot of pictures in a short time in a short time because there was a lot of nature around me to take pictures of. I took these pictures when the sun was beginning to set so the lighting in them was different to a lot of images I had taken before, but i really liked the effect this gave the pictures and the country feel it added to them. I tried to take a lot of pictures of the same things but using different camera angles so that I was able to pick my favourite from the lot. this benefitted my work. I tried to focus on making the backgrounds of my pictures blurry in order to show depth, and control which part of the photo was the main focus, and this worked really effectively. I experimented with different and unusual angles such as pointing the camera up at something to emphasise the length or depth of it, rather than just taking the picture from straight on. I am very happy with the images produced from this shoot, and i think that some of these pictures are my best so far.

The only negative of this shoot was that sometimes it was too dark so the quality of the pictures were effective, and the detail and tones were not clear enough. To overcome this I tried to shoot in the brightest areas which really improved the result of the images.




progression

I feel like I have made quite a lot of improvement since the last walk, as I have tried to be more experimental with my camera angles
