In these series of photos, i wanted to capture what we don't notice in public most often and magnify that and put it in frame. all of these pictures in this series are all in close proximity this shows that there is a lot of objects and things that go unnoticed as the negative space shows that the object is small compared to the space in the picture. (the camera i used to take these photos didn't have an option to change the settings) - camera use; Nikon Coolpix B500

Frozen Movement

F-stop: 1/4
Exposure time: 60 sec.
ISO speed : ISO-400
Focal length: 18mm

F-stop: 1/10
Exposure time: 30 sec.
ISO speed : ISO-800
Focal length: 55mm

F-stop: 1/13
Exposure time: 25 sec.
ISO speed : ISO-3200
Focal length: 18mm

In my frozen movement series, i wanted to capture different classroom activities but in a frozen still frame; to show current expression and also it intensifies the image

Blurred movement

Cannon EOS 70D

F-stop: 22
Exposure time: 1/2 sec.
ISO speed : ISO-800
Focal length: 18mm

F-stop: 1/29
Exposure time: 4 sec.
ISO speed : ISO-200
Focal length: 32mm

F-stop: 1/29
Exposure time: 4 sec.
ISO speed : ISO-200
Focal length: 32mm

Raising the shutter speed ( 1/4sec or longer) and f.stop (around f/22) and decreasing the ISO to the lowest available allowed us to create this blurred movement effect. I wanted to capture classroom life through blurred movement.

In my frame within a frame series i wanted to capture two different scenery's in the different frames like the viewer would step into another world if they entered the the picture. as shown the vegetation is filling one spot of the two pictures as it is surrounded by walls of a home. The first photo i tried to represent it as an entrance to a town from the frame to frame even though it was in the town centre

Large depth of field

In my large depth of field series, i took these selection of photos in France to show the vast scenery of Frances different environments; from the Town's trimmed hedges and a well kept garden, to Frances nature and to abandoned buildings surrounded by vegetation.

Shallow depth of field

Focal length 11mm
Max aperture: 1.6953125

Shallow depth is good for bringing out something in the view to attract the attention of the viewer  to that object or thing; as it blurs out the background, it can result in some really nice imagery. i took these series of photos to bring out and make the objects stand out of the crowd. As in the leaf and flower photo there is plenty of the same flowers and leafs among them, but i used the shallow depth of field composition to make the certain ones stand out among  the others. without this composition rule the photo would look fairly plain

My favourite photo series

Nikon Coolpix B500

                                                          by Doug Photography

These are some of my favourite photos of the London underground taken by Doug photography, it has a lot of symbolisation of the underground in just these two photos as it shows the London underground sign (it is well known) and also how busy the station can get. I wanted to recreate a series of photos of my time in the underground these series show a story within each photo going down deeper within the underground with my friend.

Painting with light

By lowering the ISO, increasing the f-stop and lengthening the shutter speed; it creates a light sensitiveness effect that follows the movement of light over the shutter speeds duration, this allows light to be painted. My goal was to be quite abstract with my light paintings and show simple but complex patterns in an artistic way.

Beauty light 

Side light

ISO was lowered to around 500 to allow to allow the light to be more prominent, shutter speed was low to allow an instant crisp image. we used our model Yulia as light was shown in a better way on her face then other models and allowed us to take better images.

Photograms

 Photograms are made without using a camera. By placing objects onto a piece of light sensitive paper in a darkroom, you can use any light source to your disposition to cast light onto the paper and capture the white silhouettes of the objects on the piece of paper. i tried to be abstract and create images that were found in the photography studio.
