St Malo Trip Photoshoot

Selective Colour

Black and White Edits

Summary

Overall I am happy with how the photoshoot had turned out, I managed to take a variety of candate and rustic architecture photos with different angles up close and far away.

Similarly to Henri Cartier-Bresson, I used my camera as an “extension to my eye” to try and capture the everyday view of a tourist or local in St Malo, I wanted to capture decisive moments in time that represented people’s memories. Unlike Cartier-Bresson I didn’t have a small compact camera so it was much harder to capture these moments without people becoming aware.

I’ve used a black and white filter with a yellowish tone and experimented with blurred images to add to the aged feel and look to the town. However, I intended to photograph cars in some of my images because I like the contrast of the town against something very modern, It shows the shift from the old days into the new.
