Walk2 - Work Diary

Evaluation:

After editing the images from the first walk and looking at how I would progress. As a group, we went on a week later to our second walk. We were told to look at the same topics but to focus more on location back of heads and different autumn colours. This was harder than on the first walk as the weather wasn't very good. However, it gave me an eery effect on some of my images that I took in the forest. It added to the autumn effect as the sky was grey, although it made the colours less bold and not stand out. We were also told to look at journey and try and create a visual story from it. I preferred this walk to the first as I had already got the experience and knew what I was suppose to be looking at from advice for the first one. A lot of my journey pictures also could have featured in the autumn category as there was more leaves this time. One of my favourite images from the shoot was the following.



I especially like this image off Josh's head as it stands out among the dark background. I chose for him to stand in this spot as his dark blue jacket contrasts from the light green background. It exaggerates the autumn colours, while his composition in the shot worked well in showing portraiture. One of my other images from the shot which I liked from my second walk was this one. Although it doesn't directly show autumn colours, I like the way it is composed and how the trunk is the focal point of the picture. I will use this image in different ways, for example, in my computer or physical experiments as I feel the level of detail is enhanced in the image.


Progression:
Similarly to the first walk, many of the images that I would inspire for them to look like some of the landscape images. I would also focus more on my sense of journey to look like these. I like these images as they explore a feeling of isolation amongst the audience. In the first image we see the girl stood long along the train tracks, and in the second the girl is walking alone in the empty room.
