Shoot 1- Work Diary

In this shoot I decided to take a series of images under and around some arches in my local area, I wanted to focus on the architecture, the urbanisation of the landscape, the graffiti etc. I am overall pleased with the result of the images. 


This shot is take from the inside of an arch with the whole width and most of the length of the arch, with the vegetation visible at the end of the arches, I wanted to take it form this perspective to capture a clear view of the entirety of the archy, focusing on the shape and architecture of the structure, the angle is looking up from the ground trying to encompass as much of the arch as possible. In the majority of the series I used flash because of how dark it was underneath the structure; the camera settings therefore all came out the same; 1/60 Sec ISO 400 F 3.5. The light from the flash captures all the little details such as the limbs and branches of the trees and the brickwork and graffiti on the tunnel, showing clarity and contrast.


In this shot I focus on the graffiti under the tunnels, the flash is visibly illuminating the wall and therefore the art, I wanted focus on the urbanisation of the landscape, due to how dark it was I needed to use flash 1/60 Sec ISO 400 F 3.5, and therefore my was struggling to focus however I think it has captured the scene clearly including the depth of field of the curve of the arch and the wall in the far left corner. The colours are clear and contrasting with the wall and the art work, the bright and dark tones are shown in the dimly lit setting.

Progression-

I am overall pleased with the way in which my photos have come out, due to how dark the setting was, the majority of my images are used with flash, a lot of the ones that didn't have flash on came out blurry, I would like to come back to the spot or one which is similar in the day time to capture a series of images in urban settings without the use of flash. I would also like to incorporate graffiti into more of my shoots because it is a big part of the urbanised landscape.
