Depth Work Diary

In todays lesson we carried on with  depth. We had the opportunity to go into town instead of staying in the studio & take some photos.
I found it hard to find things around that had any meaning of depth to me personally, or that ha depth within itself. However I managed to find a few things that I liked.

Here is a photo I liked

I really like this photo because you can see the cracks in the road. You can see the turmoil and ups and downs. You can see different components that make up the ground we walk on.

Here is the edited photo of this.

My edited version has the theme of blue specks and blue blurred backgrounds.

Here is a photo I did not like.

I do not like this photo because the view seems dull and unappealing. I also do not like it because you cans ee the flash reflection in the automatic doors. 

Whilst doing depth, as I mentioned earlier, you can find depth in something personal to you. Something, or in this case someone personal to me was with me whilst taking photos. A friend of mine was taking a photo of something and whilst I watched her do this, I thought she looked naturally in her set. So I took  candid photo - this was suppose to be just for her but then I found that I actually quite liked them. I then had the idea of the quote "A masterpiece taking a photo of art." I decided that if I could, I would photoshop her into seemingly taking a photo of art or something aesthetically pleasing. Here are my results:

This first one, I photoshopped my friend into sitting at the end of the pier taking a photo of the sun or water. I liked the idea but it was harder to put into real life. I think it would be better if she blended in a little more.

This was another attempt at placing her inside a temple sort of building I think it works quite well, it genuinely looks like she is sitting down, however I think her body proportion needed to have been a little bigger.







Lastly, this is the same as above, however I noticed after that the shadows caste would have put her shadow on the ground also. So I manipulated the figure into looking dark and washed into the ground, It was hard trying to find where the shadow would actually have been caste, however I think it turned out okay. I would have liked the shadow to be blank with no detail but that was hard to do.
