2. Research
I did quite a lot of research on
photographers including mind maps
about different types of photography, a
moodboard of landscape and portrait
photos and power points on different
photographers.

4. For the research on photographers I did a
series of power points on different
photographers. I did research on Ansel
Adams, Andrew Brooks, Carr Clifton, Emilie
Bailey, Michael Robert Williams and Nick
Pickles.
5. I also had to do a word document about
the different terminology's of
photography. I had to write a definition of
a certain term e.g. shutter speed and give
examples of photos that have used
shutter speed.

7. I then had to a small task based on Andy
Warhol's art. I had to do some research on
him and do an Andy Warhol type picture
myself on Photoshop.
I also had to do small light paint task and
understand how light paint photos work.

9. Salford Quays Task
Our main task was to go and take a lot of
pictures around the Salford Quays area
and we would eventually manipulate
them in Photoshop
13. What went well – I think this is quite a good effect and makes the
picture look quite dramatic.
What I would change – I would probably make it a little bit less
dark as the bottom part of the photo isn’t very visible.
14. What went well – It makes Salford looks nice and clean. It makes
the weather look nice.
What I would change – There isn’t much in the photo and all the
scenery is too far away really.
15. What went well – The colours compliment each other well
and the colours represent the two football teams in
Manchester.
What I would change – maybe have less colour in it as just
looks really unrealistic.
16. What went well – I think the effect makes it look very
nostalgic and vintage effect.
What I would change – The canal at the bottom is white so
it is difficult to tell where the photo ends so I would change
the colour of that.
17. What went well – The effect emphasises the actual buildings
with outline around them.
What I would change – The effect makes it look like an
animated picture rather than a photo so I would have less
effect on it.
18. What went well – The black and white makes the image
more dramatic and interesting.
What I would change – Like one of the earlier images the
white at the top makes it difficult to tell where the end is.
19. What went well – The photo was originally taken in the
daylight but the editing makes it look like it is night time and all
the things in the area seem brighter.
What I would change – The cropping of he image was really
poor and it looks very slanted.
20. What went well – I really like the effect on this photo with the
black and white go in to the normal colour.
What I would change – I wouldn’t change anything on this, it is
my favourite photo I edited.
21. What went well – I think the effect makes it look lighter outside
and more cheery and also keeps the reality of the area and isn’t
too out of place.
What I would change – The cropping at the bottom isn’t very
straight and could be improved.
22. What went well – I think the black and white effect makes the
photo look quite dramatic.
What I would change – I would probably re take the actual
photo as there is quite a big reflection off the building which I
think ruins it a bit.
