Photoshoot 1 – Ronez Quarry and farm
I have been to ronez quarry and took photos from sorel point which I will use in my exam. I think these photos show the industrial impact of humans on the Jersey coastline. There was also a lookout point that had been graffitied. I photographed this because I think this shows the impact of humans on historical buildings. Around this area I also went to a farm. I think the photos I took link to my artist reference, Ed Burtynsky. This is because there was tires that had been dumped on the farm, something that Edward photographed a lot in his career.
Photoshoot 2 – Holme Grown greenhouses
I will photograph the greenhouses near my house as they have been abandoned and are not being used anymore. I think these photos will show the impact of humans on the agriculture environment. I will also photograph the abandoned store which used to be Holme Living. It is now overgrown with plants. There is also building work going on behind Holme grown which I will also take photos of. The origins of Holme Grown was some successful tomato growers opening a store and eventually having a lot of land to grow on. However, in recent years these greenhouses have become unused and the owners are looking to sell the land so that urban buildings can be built. I think these photos will show the area of time between agricultural growers and urbanisation.
