Third RESPONSE TO HIROSHI SUGIMOTO’S

Over the course of my project I have been collecting images that reflect inspiration taken from my original artist reference Hiroshi Sugimoto. It was much easier to collect a variety of lighting over a long time period therefore every-time I went on a shoot I would snap a couple of Images in the style that can be seen below. This allowed me to collect a wider range of weather conditions and lighting than if I were to go out on specific shoots for this. I think this process has worked very well in allowing me to collect a variety of seascape images with a sense of changing lighting and weather conditions.

For this shoot i wanted to take a different approach to the typical photos that have influenced my interest in the ocean by Hiroshi Sugimoto. His photos usually portray a moody atmosphere through the choice of B&W formatting. Despite his project all containing B&W images there is still a clear focus on the depiction of light. However i wanted to try and emphasize this focus on changing light and how it shapes the landscape as appose to the traditional landscape images from the romantic genre. I feel as if I have successfully achieved this aim with a wide variety of weather conditions and lighting on the same landscape.
