FINAL PHOTOS

 

 

Portraiture

 

I chose this to be my final photo because of the way it turned out. This was the first time I started photography and this was my favourite portraiture photo out of a collection that I took (Which were sadly exposed to light whilst in the process of being removed from the camera. I took my time and effort with this photo to make sure it was in focus properly when being exposed and to make sure I picked the right exposure time. I like how it has been made to completely focus on to girl in the photo and the background is a complete blur which shows how much the camera is focusing on the girl.

 

 

Street photography

 

 

I chose this to be my final photo in street photography because of the two people in the market. I captured this at the right time because the two people in the photo look like they are together but they actually weren't. This photo shows also shows how these types of people enjoy shopping and they bring the whole photo to life. This photo also refers to Martin Parr's photo when there is a couple sat in a café on the same table but they don't actually look like they are together, whereas my photo shows the complete opposite.

 

 

 

Landscape

 

I thought this was a good final photo because of how the tree branches are reaching into the middle of the photo prom the top. almost like leaking through the picture and taking over the landscape scene. It also looks like you are having to peer through a gap to see this snowing landscape view and that is what I like about this photo.

 

 

 

Experimental

 

For my experimental project I chose this photo. I chose this one because of how the coconut oil looks like a type of galaxy of some sort. I also like how in the top right corner of the chemigram the oil is breaking apart which is what I didn't expect to see as the result. When I smeared off the coconut oil it came out with this smokey effect, which gives the chemigram a galaxy looking effect.



 

Experimenting With Emulsion Paint

 

 

 

For this photo I used emulsion paint. I found the experiment quite interesting and enjoyable because of what we had to do to reveal the photo. We were told to make our hands damp with warm water then gently rub away the paper and that interested me the most because you were able to take your time with the process and not rush. The emulsion paint also makes the photo old looking because of how it has turned out.

As part of our experimental project, we also created a different type of a double negative. What we did: we cut two negative photos in half, picked which side of each negative photo we liked the most and stuck them together with a piece of sellotape.The first photo was a tester to find the right exposure time and the bottom photo was the result that came out after exposing it for 12 seconds. I like how the final one turned out because it looks like you have brought together two different worlds into one photo.

 

The middle photo was experimenting with the developer liquid. I had to find a double negative that someone else had made, expose that negative and use different ways to make the picture appear with the developer. As an example I used a paint brush and brushed the developer on one side of the photo and let the developer drip down. I like using this as an experiment because you can use different objects with the developer and you photo will never turn out to be the same.
