This is a powerpoint of all i have researched for my phtography course so far, there is a couple of sections that i have focused in on, for example, eyes. It also contains camera tutorials and techniques. At the end of the powerpoint all of my experimental photos are displayed.
9. This portrait photograph shows the old liver building
in Liverpool, it is taken from a low angle which's
makes the building look ominous and overpowering.
This is what I like about the picture. This photograph
is a good example of showing old buildings in the
Liverpool area as it is well know. The colours used
in the photograph work well as the building and the
background contrast, making the building stand out
which is good as it is the main focus of the
photograph. I think that the photographer is trying to
show the importance of the building overall.
10. The reason I chose watches to look at is because it
is a good representation of our topic ‘time’, I
particularly like this picture as it shows old style
watches and how style has changed over time. The
background of this image is old and worn
suggesting that it is an old item and has been
through time. The picture denotes a watch, there is
a shadow on one side of the object, which could
again connote time. The light on one side and
darkness on the other could show the day to night
process again suggesting the passing of time
11. I have chosen this image to represent past and
present photography as it fully shows the
transition from the past to the present , i
particularly like the main focus on the
photograph as it shows that it is the main object
in the picture. The background is blurred, yet
not so much that it is indistinguishable and we
are unable to tell what the image is trying to
show. The theme of time is obviously present in
this image, the bare grass and worn tiles show
that they are older than they appear in the
photograph in the persons hand.
12. For the topic of childhood memories I have chosen this
particular photograph to represent it. A simple
playground, as a child a place I visited a lot. I like this
picture as it is conflicting to what people normally think
of children's playgrounds, which are usually happy,
colourful and bright places. This photograph has a black
and white effect which makes it look old and derelict.
The use of the fog and bare trees in the background
make the photo somewhat daunting and scary.
Furthermore, i am interested in this picture as again, it
shows the passing of time; it shows what used to be a
happy place and what is now only alive in memories.
13. For the topic ‘rush hour’ i have decided to focus
in on this picture, it shows the business of
people in the stations daily lives. The trains
appear to be the main feature in the photograph
as they are the only things in focus. The use of
time lapse in this picture suggests that there are
many people in the station throughout the day
and that they are in a rush. The pop of colour
from the people could suggest the many
different personalities of the people who are
walking through the station and the different
things that they are in a rush to get the train for.
14. I have also chosen to focus in on the subject of
eyes to represent the topic of time. The ageing
of eyes and eyes of people at different ages is
an unusual and interesting way of showing time
through a series of pictures. I particularly like
the picture due to the blurred background as it
suggests that the eyes are the main focus of
the image. From this picture you can also fully
tell the age of the person involved- in this case
a young child.
15. I have chosen flowers
as sometime to look
at as I feel as though
they show time
through nature. The
process of flowers
blossoming to them
dying is a process
that represents time
in an unusual way.
