UNIT 57 Photography- Assignment 2- My Images (Before and After)

I took my pictures within a park on an overcast day so therefore it made the objects within the image to appear quite darker and greyer than what they actually were. Therefore when editing my pictures I was constantly taking this into account which is why for all my images I increased the colour saturation and in some cases the vibrance/exposure in order to make the images appear more colourful and brighter. Also as increasing the colour saturation was a method that I used in order to try to imitate the works of Steve McCurry and the artistic style that he injects into his documentary photography. As well as this I was using a camera that automatically adjusted aperture and shutter speed so therefore due to the fact that all areas of the park that I took pictures in would've had a similar level of lighting, the aperture and shutter speeds for the images would've all been relatively similar. Below is a PowerPoint of my images after being edited

UNIT 57 Photography- Assignment 2- What message/emotion am I trying to convey?

My photoshoot will be about documenting Nature and the processes the take place.

I would be capturing life within these places no matter how big or small in order to show the processes of life within such unexpected places. This photoshoot would also show the significance of life no matter how big or small, by documenting different kinds of plants and small insects with the colours that they show it would make so the viewer sees these things as far more significant and beautiful than what they would have thought before. I also want to show that essentially beauty can be found anywhere. I also want to show that objects as simple as plants can be art subjects because of how their colours stand out. By using a location that is actually free and open rather than by going somewhere such as a garden or a zoo to capture these images it will allow me to capture life in its raw element allowing for the pictures to be a lot more realistic. It shows life at its core rather than something that is staged or forced. I also think that these images will focus on the finer details of life in its smallest, which in a way is reflective of people because rather than look at something/someone as a whole it can sometimes be useful to think about different features in greater detail to get more of a sense of the situation or who a person is. Sometimes looking at something as a whole may not be the way forward and looking at something deeper may be more useful.

UNIT 57 Photography- Assignment 2- Conversation with Tutor about my ideas

The following is the email that I sent with my initial ideas:

The following screenshot is the email that I have received in return from my tutor discussing my ideas:

As a result of this discussion and looking back over my ideas I have decided that I will be going about the nature documentary idea where I will be going about documenting the importance of nature and the life cycles that take place over a given period of time.
