Plan
What: Soil pollution: The most common type of pollution caused by household waste, industrial waste and agriculture. Knowing the causes of pollution on earth will require us to be a better guardian of the world that we are living on. #
Why: On this shoot i decided to focus on the domestic waste left behind because i want to make people aware of the waste that they leave and is contantly causing damage in our planet.
When: Like Troy Paiva, I chose to do this shoot in the evening. Troy Paiva takes pictures around the evening, using openings of a few minutes to catch the discernible time entry on a lonely edge.
Where: I chose to shoot in a place that is derelict and that represents the things that have been left behind because they no longer have or can find any utility.

Both of the images let you guess that they are taken in the evening because the colours effect are more efficient on the image and there’s use of flash. The lights are obviously artificial lights since they are colours effects. I decided to use strong colours (blue / red) while Troy Paiva use lighter colours (pink / purple) which have less impact on objects. In Troy Paiva’s photography purple is the dominant colour and in mine is red. The tones are almost the same in both of them we can dark parts around the objects that’s what makes them stand out however mine shadows are darkest than in Paiva’s image. The lightest parts are on the objects. This contrast creates a mysterious atmosphere on both of them. We can see on both of the images different geometric shapes like the tv, table and some organic shapes like the curtain, the waste… The object that can be found in the two photos is the old tv who is not from this generation however Troy Paiva’s tv looks more old and damaged. On the image of Troy Paiva the photo is taken from further away so the Tv is in foreground on the middle and the lights are exposed on the background this creates a lot of space on the image while I decided to zoom in so that the TV is not the main object on the foreground but also the waste and the lights are on the objects
as my image is taken from very close and the objects are stacked on top of each other there is no space.
