Portrait Photography

For this exercise we were set the task of taking some portrait photos at first we did this in the studio in front of a black screen, but then we decided to go out side and use the natural light and the snow to get some good shots.

Rule of thirds

Rule of thirds is about how you position objects in your shot. It is a 3x3 grid which allows you to focus on an object easier. Here is an example of the rule used in some photos.

This photo uses the rule of thirds to make the people in the bottom left hand corner the centre of attention.

This is another example of the rule of thirds, with one of the cross being on the person.

Urban Landscape Research

For my urban landscape research, I will be focusing my work on Andreu Arriola.

In this image the photographer use the images in the four grounds to affect the width of the building behind it. This shows the depth of the photo. He also uses the reflection in the water to give it depth of view and shows were the light is coming from.

I like this photography as the photographer has used weird shapes and reflection.

this photo Andreu Arriola has used the lights to capture certain parts of the image. He has taken this photo in the evening to give it a calming feel to it. The colours used are neutral colours.

I like this photo because of the way that there are spots of light dotted around the photo

Texture

For this exercise we were sent out with the cameras to take photo off different textures.
