Over the next two weeks you will be…
- selecting your most successful images (from the abstract unit)
- finalising your most successful images (from the abstract unit)
- displaying your most successful images (from the abstract unit)
So…you must create a set of blog posts that clearly shows your thought process, selection criteria, image enhancement and manipulation, and how you intend to display your final image / set of images.
Selection Criteria
Focus…is the image(s) in focus ?
Exposure….is the images(s) correctly exposed ?
Evidence of learning…does the image refer to at least one of the formal elements?
Connection to a chosen photographer…how close is the relationship ?
Unique / interesting…how sophisticated / complex is your image(s)
Examples

Research and explore alternative approaches to presenting your final images. This should be an integral part of your concept…not a gimmick…ultimately, the quality of your photography will be the primary focus and your mark will reflect this…
