Photoshoot 2

Here I took some photos of buildings, the sea and anything else that was around me as I tried to take pictures as to how I see the view to show my own point of view, I put these photos in black and white mainly to be inspired by Ansel Adams. The whole point of taking pictures of the beach and buildings is to show the different places in the world how  each person may see it differently , why taking a picture of it how its seen and not adjusted will help to capture the true moment and not fake photography as many things that are shown today have been photoshopped due to technology and photos have become created by AI which makes everything a lot more dangerous and scarier. If we have Ai creating pictures then what’s the point in going out and taking them, well it helps to keep photography real and alive, it helps to show the true perspective of the world and not how some people may edit it and make ‘fake news’. I feel as though making my photo black and white helps to keep the nostalgia feeling alive as in a few years this area could be covered in new houses or different buildings, it could also be destroyed due to some complications, the answered are always unsolved. The black and white helps also to make the photo look more modern in my opinion as you don’t have colours clashing with each other creates a contrast, contrast is one the basic elements of design, as the eye is drawn directly to it. 

Here are some photos of France, these are landscape photos, however instead of having a photo filled with nature, plants, flowers and no man-made items, instead I have used landscape photos of buildings, with other things surrounding them such as cars and people. I made these photos black and white to yet again represent Ansel Adams photos, although his photos don’t tend to have buildings in them, I wanted to show how society has changed and how beautiful empty lands are getting taken over by humans building houses and other things. This is destroying nature and taking over. Even if these building are seen as beautiful and helpful, they have taken over the empty lands and these photos look very different from each other. Most of these photos still have plants in them which shows that we still have elements of nature around us, and we aren’t destroying everything. To edit these photos, I used photoshop and used the adjustment tool to level how dark each colour on the photo would look as black and white. This help to make each photo have certain things highlighted . these photos here tend to have an industrial look t them as they are filled with buildings and don’t have many natural landscapes and these places would have changed over time as they didn’t always have buildings which shows that man-made products are slowly destroying the earth, for one reason is because many houses, buildings are being built onto of these beautiful places and soon we will have no free land left to do all of our farming, we also have technology taking over where many people are losing their jobs as technology is able to replace them with robots which is a bad thing, but we do have plus sides to technology for example cameras have excelled our photos so much and being able to edit our photos is a big help, to mature the photo, make it look more presentable.

Here I have some photos in colour to show the difference between black and white photos and coloured photos and how they can make the whole mood of the photo look different. For example black and white photos tend to have a nostalgic look to sadness and yearning, they tend to make the photos look quite gloomy, the black and white have a tendency of showing that the photograph is quite old and ancient as they didn’t have colour back then, therefore gives us a nostalgic sensation as the photos are very old and the building/ area could have changed so much between that time. I decided to keeps these photos in colour as it helps to look at the different shades in the sky and how the sky can change very quickly within minutes, that’s why its important to take a picture of the moment and not miss anything.
