Shoot 1

For this shoot, I walked around the Millennium park area and other parts of the French/Portuguese quarters. Here I photographed French/Portuguese shops, businesses and workers, as well as areas and evidence of a sense of community within the sector.

This is my favourite image because of the candid aspects of the photograph. The worker is busy unaware of the camera, along with the person in the background glancing over at the camera wondering what is going on. The bright red letter boxes along with the reflective vest contrast to the earthy and natural colour of the surrounding buildings. This image used an aperture of f.9 with a short shutter speed to compensate for the bright natural light at the time. I also like the perspective that the photo was taken at, it creates lines leading down the road in the background that add depth to the image.
