Stratford Practice

These are my photographs I took for the test shoot at Stratford Westfield Olympic Grounds. These photos came out pretty well for my first test shoot however I would have been better if the weather was sunnier. The good points about these photos are the rule of thirds I have used clearly in the first photo. This rule makes the photo more astatically appeasing to the eye of the audience. 

Practice

These three photos are a prime example of what I did wrong on my first photo shot out for my Photography Unit. I should have taken the photo with the sun behind me and the camera. However I took the photo with the sun in front of the camera this is why you can’t see any of the buildings it’s only a silhouette with the bright sun beaming. 

Manipulation in Photoshop Examples Of Work

Dark Room Minipulation

Here are some examples I have chosen to show how I have done manipulation from the dark room into photograph. The first step I did to achieve this was to use the enlarger in the dark room. I places different objects I thought would look good and made a negative of them. After this I then scanned the image into the computer and placed the photograph into Photoshop in the computer and used different tools. For example the paint bucket tool to make different places of the image different colours. I then inverted the images to make the black go white and vice versa. 

Light Drawing

I wanted to experiment in the dark room with light, the first person to ever do light drawing was Picasso. I wanted to get the trails from the light, to get this effect I had to put the shutter speed very low (on ten). Then I put the Nikon camera on the tripod, and put the camera on a self-timer. The results demonstrates the principle that with slow shutter speed. Anything that moves will blur, but anything stationary in the photo will stay in focus. To get the different colour lights I placed different pieces of coloured plastic over the torch to create different colour lights in the photograph. 

Here are some examples of Picasso's light drawings; 

Shadwell Practice

These are the photographs I took for a test shoot in Shadwell Park, I think these photographs have come out very well as there is good lighting, good focus when using the camera as well as good positioning. One thing I can improve on for next time is the rule of the thirds. I can use this rule for thoroughly.
