Taking photographic images for a specific purpose

Exhibition:
 The subject of this was the front and side of the car. I took the image as part of an exhibition. The photo focuses on the main image as the center of the image. The elements of this photo that make it good are the fact that the colours on the car are a contrast. The photo could be improved if the background was a  blank canvas such as if it was a white or black studio. Some people thought that the photo was good, however others thought the photo was not as good.

The subject of this photo was the brick wall and the hole in the roof. I took the picture because it was part of the concept section.The photo focuses on the wall because that is the only area that has colour whereas the rest is in black and white. The elements of design that make the picture work are the colour on the one section of the photo and the ceiling tile pushed up so that a gap has been created. The photo could be improved by having a much wider shot of the area as this would create a larger canvas. People thought this photo was both good and bad they thought the colour against the black was good however they thought the photo could have had a bigger canvas.
The subject of this photo was the bird on top of the building, however I chose to put the bird and building in black and white with the green separating them as i think this makes it work well and improves focus on the main aspect of the picture. As previously the elements that make this photo good are the the black and white on colour aspects of the photo. The photo cold be improved by having a closer shot of the building. People thought this was good as it again had the colour against dark ratio, however they thought it could be better if a closer shot of the bird was used.

Taking photographic images for a specific purpose

I am going to take images to fit into three categories these are exhibition, portrait and concept
  • For the exhibition image I will use a photo of a Honda civic.
  • For the portrait I will use images of friends.
  • For the concept image I will use black and white images, with only one colour showing.
