Best Image from the shoot 

I feel that this is the strongest image from the shoot as I think that it includes the largest amount of the techniques that Iwanted to use; Abstraction,minimalism, and the use of colour.  I took this image using natural light, as I went during golden hour it helped to increase the overall warmth of the image which is what i wanted. I used a slightly faster shutter speed than normal as i wanted the image to be sharp and crisp. I uses an ISO of 100 as it was very bright when I took this image.When taking this image wanted the focus to be split between the building but also on the colour iof the sky so this is the reason for the overall framing of the images, I decided the building in the bottom right hand side and to have the blue sky as the main focus of the image, I wanted the onlooker would look at first rather than the building. I feel that this image has stong links to my interspersion  for this project Grant Hamiltion, has he also went out into his local area and looked very clearly to find theses area of of colour that could be created into pieces of art work. Visually the dominant colour in this image is a royal blue which give the overall image a cooler tone to it, otherwise the colour palette of the image is very neutral. The image is very flat and 2D this could be due to the able in which the light is hitting the house I took this image in an estate near my house close to my house, chose to photograph this house especially due to the detailed architecture as most houses now are very modern and have a emphasis on straight lines and being linear. In this image I attempted to bring in a sense of simplicity, whilst including elements of detail that can go unnoticed if looked at closely.
