Farm Fields
Photoshoot Plan
Where – I will shoot the rural landscapes of the St Ouen Sand dunes and the Greve de Lecq woods.
What – I will look for interesting leading lines and romanticised structural elements of the landscapes.
When – imperfect weather conditions, later in the day
Why – To explore the idea of capturing the essence of romanticised landscapes
How – Narrow aperture, wide lens, small vocal length.
I settled on shooting these locations as they provide a lot of potential for exploring different viewpoints and ways of romanticizing them. The trees and dense, populated nature of the woods provides an abundance of the element of sublime, as well as a good light obstruction – drawn out shadows and gaps for light to creep in.
