le hocq photo shoot

Contact Sheets

On Tuesday 4th October we went to Le Hocq beach and travelled down to photograph things such as, rocks, landscape and ocean. I took around 300 images of different rock formations and the beach. I then exported all my images over to Lightroom and used the P and X tool to decide which images can be further edited.

P and X tool

After going through all my images and choosing which were the best I came down to around 30 images which I then decided to edit. Below shown are some of my best unedited images from the Le Hocq shoot:

Best unedited images:

I edited my images using Adobe Lightroom and changed many different features on my best images. I edited features such as the tint of the photo to create a warm or cold coloured image. Also, I used the transform tool to make my images straighten up because of the horizon being slightly slanted. I edited around 20 images using these different tools and was happy with how they turned out.

Lightroom Edits:

Overall, I am very happy with the way my images turned out after editing. I like the monochrome photos because the contrast between the brown rocks and sand makes the rocks stand out compared to the rest of the image. Also, I really like the close up images taken of rocks because it shows a very good amount of detail and texture.
