Referring back to the exam theme, I am going to compare the images over the course of my shoots which I would consider within the category of ‘truth’ vs. those images I would consider more on the side of ‘fantasy/fiction’.

These are the images I feel reflect the theme of ‘fantasy/fiction’. I chose image I thought looked attractive, bright and colour, as well as image I knew I deliberately staged. They tend to show local Jersey produce in an idealistic light.

On the other hand, these image are the ones I would consider more along the lines of ‘truth’. The criteria for this was to chose images I felt had a distinctive documentary style and were more gritty. I found the less like they that that of Parr, the most ‘truth’ that was in the images. Nevertheless, there are a couple of images I have featured which slightly contradict this viewpoint.
