Photography techniques with my opinions

1. Task 2- Finding images I like and
why.

2. Fuji Blossoms

3. Fuji Blossoms
This photo was captured by ‘Yuga Kurita’ at Mount Fuji in
Japan. This photo shows Mount Fuji appearing through
the clouds in the early hours of the morning.
This is a long shot, landscape photograph of Mount Fuji
creates a Peaceful atmosphere. Focusing on the pink
cherry blossom shows its taken in a quiet spring morning.
I really like this photo as it’s a very gracious and relaxing.
This photograph makes me want to be there. By Mount
Fuji being out of focus in the background, it truly makes
you feel like you’re in the photograph.

4. Strangers To Reason

5. Strangers To Reason
The photo I have chosen is a photo of a woman and two
workers at a psychiatric hospital. Its clear the two workers
are trying to control this lady as she is struggling to get
away. This photo is very powerful as you don’t know who
she is, why she is struggling and where they are going.
This is a photojournalism long shot taken by Alfred
Eisenstaedt. I think that this photograph is very
interesting, I like the mystery and unanswered questions
behind this photograph.

6. Times Square

7. Times Square
This is a photograph of the Times Square was taken by
Michael Yamashita, he uses a very unusual technique
called motion and dimension. He created this blur type
effect as he zooms in or out with your zoom lens whilst
taking a shot. This is a long shot abstract that creates the
feeling of movement. I chose this photo as its very
unusual and different. Its almost like an optical illusion.

8. Giraffes at Sunset

9. Giraffes at Sunset
This photograph really caught my attention as the black
silhouette contrasting with the bright orange is really
striking. I love the African Jungle mood its giving. This was
taken in Masai Mara Park in Kenya by Randy Crossley. This
is a long shot landscape photograph. In my opinion this
photo is very eye catching and exotic.

10. Cowboy and Cars

11. Cowboy and Cars
This photograph was taken by Annie Griffiths in Badlands.
She used long-exposure photography to capture the red
and white lights of the car. I really like this technique and
would love to try it myself. This is a long shot landscape
photograph of a car passing a man on a horse. I find the
fact you cant see the actual car very intriguing, I find this
photo very rural and inviting.
