Portrait photo

This is my favourite picture i chose for the portrait task. I chose this one because it is colourful and interesting in my opinion. It was taken in one shot.

Decisive moment picture

The picture that i took for the decisive moment task that i chose as one of my favourites was of a woman going past on her bike. I chose this one because it was one of the best ones and because she is the only person in the scene.

Urban VS Nature

The three pictures i took today have a bit of nature and a bit of urban in. The first one has a big shopping mall, cars, traffic and some tress in it. This is because you can see how much the world has changed from being green with tress and bushes to having cars and big shops taking over.

The second picture is of a big building with a few bushes in.

The third picture is of the college and you can also see a gas box with acorns on and you can see tress branches.

Alternative Landscape- David Hockney



















This image is a very weird one, as it is images of chairs copyand pasted together to make it look like one chair is broken
















The picture here is of a person swimming, but it is multiple pictures of what looks like to me is the same person.














Here is thousands pf pictures f different things put together to make it look like it is one picture, but it is all different pictures. He has made it purposely look like diferent pictures.

Alternative Landcape-Andreas Gursky



















This picture is very colourful and bright. The Golden Thrid rule applies to this picture as it has some sort of object in the middle, which looks like a globe.















This picture is of buildings, and the Golden Thrid rule doesn't apply to this picture as there is detail every where and there are hardly any 'gaps' in the image.

histry of Potography

The invention of photography was in 1839, but the idea was around much longer.

Foreground of the pictures is what is in front of the picture, whereas the background is what is in the back of the picture.

The 'Golden Third is the middle, this is because it contains most of the detail.
