With this shoot I had to get up early so I could use the best light at the beginning of the say, such as the first picture where the sunlight illuminates the tree.
This is my second shoot where I went for a walk and found different buildings and plants for photograph. The majority was taken down a street, where I found a roof with moss that I could just reach. I think that the Fill flash was very evident it lots of the picture where there are a big contrast between the dull sky and leaves. This can be seen in 9 and 6 from the contact sheet.
The pictures of the moss on the room, in some of the pictures could be mistaken for a landscape. The moss makes it looks like rolling hills. The fill flash was unsuccessful in a lot of my pictures much like the first shoot. This is due to how the weather conditions effect the fill flash. How the blue of the sky can't be shown.
Heather Buckley is really good at getting interesting angles and bright colours into her pictures, I attempted this with my second shoot, In a few of the pictures I managed this but most I did not.
Picture 1 is my favourite as the roof with the moss is slanting diagonally across the picture, which splits the picture up this adds an effect that draws your attention to the picture. There is a flash on the moss making it lighter with the sun hitting the tree making it golden in colour. This has a contrast in colours which draws your attention to both sides.
This is my best edit, I have used the levels to adjust the colours which made it look slightly brighter and the colours contrast more. I took the picture with aperture of f/5.6 and a shutter speed of 1/200. This was due to how hard it was to get a view of the roof the picture was taken of.
For my next shoot I am changing artist to look at another technique, so I can expand my knowledge of techniques that can be achieved by using the camera. This will help me gain an understanding of the view point of the camera.
