Darren Almond is an English artist based in London who was nominated for the Turner Prize in 2005. He takes landscape photographs using long exposures, often at night, which give his images a ghostly feel. The document discusses two of Almond's photographs that have unusual colors and a sense of an untouched natural scene. It also notes that in addition to photographs, Almond works in other mediums like sculpture, film, and works on paper.

3. About Darren Almonds Photographs
These last two images are my
favourite because they have a weird
colours and a sense of a quiet,
untouched, natural scene. Darren
took his images in the middle of the
night with a long exposure(12-45
minutes)
These images have a ghostly feel
and a clear image.
Darren Almond does not just do
photographs but also makes
sculptures, films, photographs and
works on paper.
His first expedition was at the
Matthew Marks Gallery and he
progressed from there.

4. • I did my Darren Almond to suit the same
landscape and detail. I took my picture at
night with a long exposure. My image follows
Darren Almond’s ‘moonlight’ series.
• I had two attempts at this…

5. My first image
Shutter Speed:30 seconds F.stop: 5 IOS: 100 Time taken: 11pm (night time)

6. My second image
Shutter speed: 30 seconds F.stop: 5.6 IOS: 6400 Time taken: 11.30pm

7. • My second image is better because there has
more depth and better colour contrast. You
can also see the stars. This photograph is more
like Darren Almond’s photographs than the
first image.
