Developing and experimenting- Cropping

Leave a comment

Cropping is a way of manipulating images where you can get rid of certain parts of the image. It can create different impacts because you get rid of some parts of the picture that can give an audience context. This means that you can obscure different aspect of a photo in order to contextualise.

Here I cropped the image of the gun to just include the wheel. I did this because I thought it was the most interesting part of the image since the rust shows how old it is and shows the history that the gun represents.
Here I cropped an image of hole I found in a bunker. I did this because I thought that closely being able to see all the different textures and the interest short depth of field would be an interesting way to view bunkers in more depth.
Here I cropped an image I took of the stairs. I did this because I thought it was a more abstract view on the bunker. I think that this image is more successful because of all the interesting angles of the steps and also because you can see the aging very clearly.
