1. Unit 57: Photography and
Photographic Practice
Task 4 Selection of final
images & review
2. Aim of Shoot
The aim of my shoot
was to create some
great pictures that
had good character
and really spoke for
them selves like this
image has colour
yet still quite dark
and sad
3. Description of shoot
This photo was just on the outskirts of
central Manchester positioning the
camera was the key part of the shot as it
is so close to the lamppost it created a
real great photo with good depth of feel
and with all the different levels to create
my favourite picture. it was taken during
summer on quite a dull day I had the
shutter speed on quite slow as I was
trying to go for the blurred traffic effect
previously. I used gradient map to create
this quite easy and funky look
6. Editing effects
this image I changed
hue and colour
saturation. It may be
perceived as un
realistic but I think it is
a very good shot
7. Final Images
I really like the positioning of this
photo as the bridge draws you in to
the center it has good composition
I personally like the purple aspect
of it but it could be apart of the
photos down fall as it is not as
realistic
8. Editing effects
I heightened the thresh hold giving
it a strange black and white look
It was a simple and effective way
of creating a quite abstract image
9. Final Images
I like this image as it has a
really textural feel to it, its
bold and quite strange
It may be hard to interpret
what it actual is
11. Editing effects
The process I under took here
was I raised the curves to allow
more light exposure and then
inverted it to give it this
florescent dark look.
12. Final Images
I really like how you almost
lead down the street the
inverted effect really creates
this almost horror feel to the
image
14. Editing effects
I raised the photo filter to create a
warm look. I was unsure how to edit
this photo at first and believe this way
is quite effective
15. Final Images
It is quite a simple image
which could be seen as
quite boring
I personally like the picture
and think the space in the
middle of the trees has a
peaceful look to it
17. Rejected Images
These are the three of the
images I chose not to use the
first was just blurred as I left the
shutter speed on to low .
The second image I just found
very boring and bland the
building is quite ugly and not
what I was looking for
The third image was ruined by
people walking in front of me
18. Aims for next project
To make sure I prepare a good location
I will get a better camera and spend more time
actually taking the pictures
