With this shoot, I decided to experiment with a shallow depth of field, I quite like the shallow depth of field because I think it draws the viewer into the image more which makes the viewer engage more with the work.

City Film Test 2 & 3

This is a contact sheet I made to show the result of my second test shoot for City and highlighted my choices from this shoot:


Here I have tried to experiment with signs and wall textures, but so far it is not working because I am not experimenting enough with over and underexposing the two different images within the single frame. I think what is working is using trees as part of my image in double exposures because I find they create this omnipresent quality of nature. 
This is another contact print I made to show the results of my latest test shoot for my City Project. I have highlighted my choices from this shoot:

Landscape Film Test Shoot 2

This is a contact sheet that I made to show the results of my further test shots for my Landscape Project:


I have highlighted which frames which so far I was pleased with in terms of composition. For the next Test Shoot which I have scheduled for Thursday I need to change the plate I use because I find that the plate is reflecting light onto the plastic play food which is starting to bleach out parts of the plastic food. Also I want to experiment with using a faster shutter speed to slightly darken the images because I feel they are a little too bright.

Landscape Lighting Digital Test Shoot

This is a test shoot for Lighting for my Landscape Project because I thought the lighting was too harsh in the first test shoot I had done for the project :








I greatly prefer this lighting to the previous test shoot because I find the lighting to be more even and diffused by the overcast conditions. Also I like the ground level angled shots because of the amount of the field you can see. In the next test shoot I will be testing out the composition of my objects I have chosen to photograph in this space.

Unfortunately, there was a fault with the Camera's Battery which sometimes would not allow the shutter to open properly which gave me these irregular results.
