Romanticism - was an artistic, literary, musical and intellectual movement that originated in Europe toward the end of the 18th century, and in most areas was at its peak in the approximate period from 1800 to 1850. In photography, a romantic landscape's purpose is to evoke strong feelings of mainly aw and rapture. The aim is capturing an image that celebrates nature and or shows strong feelings and emotions through weather and landscape that convey exaggerated beauty and power. https://www.artlimited.net/image/en/635966Photoshoot - my response to Romanticism didn't go to plan. I tried to take sea landscapes with a slow shutter speed without a tripod which led to my images to be shaky and blurry combined with the natural light getting darker and darker which also led to my photos being under or over exposed. Personally I don't like the aesthetic of Romanticism which didn't help for me to be inspired by any particular artist or photograph.
However, with the blurred images I had, I managed to create a response to the photographer Idris Khan who layers on photographs to get the desired effect of an out of focus image that almost looks like a pencil sketch.
Idris Khan With the few pictures I managed to salvage a fairly okay image in response to Idris Khan of the oil tower. I used Photoshop to layer on the different photographs and reduce the opacity so each image was visible in one photograph. I then edited it to black and white like Khan's work.
