Rut blees luxemburg is a German born British photographer. Her photography focuses on night photography. I was inspired by the image below so did a shoot to try and replicate the image in my own way.
The New Topographics was a term used to describe a group of American photographers who took photos of the urban landscape. The main photographers in the new topographics were Robert Adams, Lewis Baltz and Nickolas Nixon, they would take images of urban landscapes such as car parks, suburb housing areas (with a glimpse of nature in the background), isolated built up areas.
The New Topographics reacted to the cruel and oppressive idealised landscape photography of natural elements such as the work of Ansel Adams. They photographed the tension between nature and the structures in post-war America
Robert Adams is an American photographer from New Jersey who was apart of the ‘The New Telographics’ who took images of urban landscapes in west America.
This is a digital image of a urban landscape. The mise-en-scene presents mobile homes in West America with a mountain in the background. The focal point of the image is the mountain as it stands out and draws the audience to the image. The colours are monochrome and there’s a range of tones in the image such as the white mobile homes and the darker area of the mountain and the shadows below the homes. Adams has used the rule of thirds however, he hasn’t used leading lines.
Exposure bracketing is a technique where you take three photos (or more) that all have different exposures ranging from being over exposed, under exposed and one being correctly exposed.
This can be done by manually changing your camera settings.
