Fifth Shoot

Carrying straight on from my last shoot- I used a digital camera to compare how each aesthetic looks in the same location; in addition to using the same approach of photographing the area as I did in my last shoot, I focused more on lighting this time, to see how it would transfer on camera in this location.

I think these images came out well, especially in its use of lighting and subject matter; it gives the project a different feel, ranging from subtle use of lighting, shown in Image 2 and 3, to images that look like they were staged in a studio through its even and flat lighting, exhibited in Image 5. Nonetheless these images show aspects of everyday life that we usually ignore or hardly notice, like in Image 6, that is central to this project.

As previously stated in my last blog, I would try different approaches to improve the work, like different angles and experimenting with lighting more, and continue using a digital camera alongside a disposable camera; I like both aesthetics and I want to see how they turn out as I carry on with this series.
