3. Double Exposure
I have chosen these images and this
technique because I like the way you can
overlap different images and blend them
together to create an interesting and
visually eye catching end piece. I also like
this technique because you can use a layer
as a framing device and put the second
image inside the frame. E.G. the hand
image with the trees/forest inside them.
You could also photograph someone's
shadow or silhouette and then cut it out
and use it as the framing device so that
you have a photograph inside the person’s
body/head shape.
4. LIGHT WRITING/DRAWING
I have chosen these images and this technique
because I like the way you can leave the camera
shutter open for a set time period and can trail a
torch/laser light across the frame and it will
remember it, producing an artistic and interesting
looking image. I like how the background stays dark
so that the light stands out and you have nothing in
the background. To produce this style of photograph
you would need a solid dark room or to be outside at
nighttime with no street lamps or car headlights
present unless you want to see the subject/person
moving the light source in the background. You
would need a solid surface or tripod to place the
camera on due to the shutter being open for an
extended period of time. Not using something to
support your camera would result in camera shake
and your image not being sharp and clear, losing
quality to the light trail you produced.
5. Motion Blur/Movement
This technique/style interests me because you
can get interesting and eye catching turn outs
but at the same time you will never known
exactly how the final image is going to look.
This photography technique maintains a clear
and crisp background whilst the movement of
the vehicles or people appears as lines of
softness or colour. I like the vehicles
movement better than the people movement
as it adds more colour to the image and also
because they move faster which creates crisp
lines of colour throughout the image whereas
the people moving/walking can look a little bit
dull and as though you didn’t want it to
happen.
