Journeys and Pathways Introduction

For Journeys and Pathways I feel like there are two main paths I could go down with both the subject of my photos, as well as how I take them.

In the top left is one theme idea of motoring and cars. This would work well for this project as cars have large groups of enthusiasts and passionate people; which would make for great photo shoots and projects. They also fit the theme really well as they are literally used for journeys and travelling. Many sports cars and vintage cars also have bold shapes and lines in their styling, which helps strengthen photos of them.

In the top right are landscapes and roads. These fit the theme of pathways extremely well as they are routes which people travel on. They also provide strong shapes due to wide roads, and the surroundings providing great scenery.

In the bottom left is abstract photography; which is a method I could use for this project, although it would work best with cars it could be used for any subject. It helps capture the details of the subject as abstract photos are usually taken up close, as well as providing a new view on objects as we don’t usually observe things up very close.

In the bottom right is Wide-angle/landscape photography. Although it is still compatible with cars it is best suited to the subject of roads and landscapes. This is because it helps capture more in a single frame, and gives better results when taken from far away.
