Landscape photography

John Blakemore

I chose this photo as part of my research because it's really interesting. It seems to have been taken on a coast and the mist makes the photo look more gloomy and dark. I really find it interesting because because of the dark effect that it gives. The rocks look like they are drowning in the most and they are trying to get air by peeking through the layers of mist. The black and white filter makes the photo look old and not a modern day photo. I have a really big interest in black and white photos so it makes me more interested and drawn in by the photo.

This photo really interests me because of the sun reflecting off the water. The sun reflecting gives the water a smooth and frosted look. Because of the black and white effect it makes the rocks blend in with the water. I like when John Blakemore takes photos like these because it shows that landscape isn't just about taking photos of  a field and a sky with a couple of trees scattered around. It shows that you can experiment with the nature around you and take close up photos like the one above.
