st helier habor first photo shoot

Selections

I managed to narrow it down to 14 images that I found to be the best from this shoot.

Editing

I have cropped this image to centre the painting, the point of the roof is not centre to the photo, however, the flag pole balances it out. I have also cut our some of the negative space in order to have the focus not only on the building but on the painting.

For this one I lowered the exposure to give the image more depth.

For me, a black and white photo can create more emotion with in the viewer. The building in the middle is the jersey rowing club, it is also the old life boat station. The slip is where the first lifeboat, the Howard Davis, was launched from. By lining up the rowing club in the centre through the barrier and the boat it is like a window to the past.

favourites

This is one of my favourites from this shoot. the dolphin is in line with the breakwater and the horizon and creates a nice even line across the images that is only broken by the ?. There is a lot of negative space with the brightness of the sky which creates a nice contrast to the darker colour of the sea.

Evaluation

This photo shoot was fairly successful however I would of liked to be more creative with my photos. A lot of what I took was very straight on and a bit more classical. I would like to go back down on a less windy day.
