Test shoot
Introduction
In
this report I will be showing off my practice images for my final peace featuring
images of Christmas in London.
The first image is of the winter wonderland in Hide Park
London. When this image was taken I used no tripod, the shutter speed was quite
high and the aperture was low. This helped me achieve the affect to make light
stand out however this has a downfall as I am in London there is light pollution in the sky making the sky have some light to it even tho its night time. The
framing in this image is a little off as it captures the winter wonderland but
there s just black space on the right where there is nothing to look at. The
lighting in this image is quite dark but this makes the colorful rides stand
out. this image in particular is not the strongest image that relates to my
theme as these are just rides in the winter wonderland.
This
second image was taken at Westfield Stratford London. Once again this image was
taken with no tripod, however I cannot remember what settings I had on at the
time with the shutter speed and the aperture. Framing in this images captures
the spirit of Christmas with the light up reindeer's and the Christmas tree with
the lights all that is missing is a star on top of the Christmas tree which was
not there. Lighting in this image looks rather bright as of the reindeer and
the light on the left side of the frame. They are lighting up the area giving
the illusion of how Christmas lights up peoples lives around Christmas time with
the presents, the sharing, the giving and togetherness. This looks like a
miracle that brings joy to everyone at this time of year. This image represents
what I am going for rather well as it depicts how beautiful Christmas is
in London.
The
following image was taken at Westfield. In this image you can clearly see the
Christmas decorations over the top of people enjoying themselves having some
food at this great setting with a friend or member of family. The framing n tis
image is a little off as you can see the reflection of the lights on the
buildings to the sides of the image. The lighting in this image is quite bright
making the decorations stand out which also gives the image a nice blue sort of
filter however on the bottom half of the image the light is darker making the
orange ‘Westfield’ sign stand out. This image depicts my theme rather well as
it shows Christmas and how beautiful it is with people enjoying themselves
during this time period with someone they want to be around.
This image was once again taken in Westfield as it is a
great place for Christmas decorations and the atmosphere I wanted to capture.
This is a simple picture of reindeer made out of lights. This image could be
better if I took this image from a different angle with a different background
as a shop is not that appealing to Christmas (besides shopping for gifts). The
lighting in this image is very bright highlighting the reindeer standing in the
grass. The light emitted by the reindeer is highlighting the tree and is
outlining the bushes with the bluish light they are producing. This gives the
image a nice visual affect. I think the
framing in this image is quite good the only thing spoiling this image would be
the background but the background could be replaced easily if needed. This
image captures some of the theme I am trying to capture. This image shows that
Christmas is a bright time of year filled with happiness and togetherness even
thou this is not suggested directly I can see that meaning behind this image.
