COMPOSITION
COMPOSITION RESPONSE
In my response of the common composition remake photos I gathered random everyday objects and turned them into certain composition patterns these individual patterns where scattered through out cars makings on walls and building scaffolding i used all of these to my advantage and moved the camera to different angles of the object so the viewer could see a shape if they looked closer in the image i presented them with.
SEBASTIAN MAGNANI
My Response
Magnani, in my opinion his artwork always has a link to a refracted world which has been reflected by a mirror this shows us what is going on behind and surrounding the camera this can have a huge affect on what the viewer sees in the photo because there is more details behind the chosen setting.
After taking these photos I have realised that they can only work when the object/person you are trying to reflect is standing out a lot.in detail to my response I in particular I used a dark setting and with some LED lights it lit up the whole mirror so you could see the mirror and the lights, in correlation to Sebastian Magnani he in particular chose his settings to be in the daylight and to reflect a tree branch or a object of nature and because it is in daylight you can see everything being reflected.
In my response to Sebastian Magnani photos I came up with this masterpiece in detail instead of placing the mirror flat on the ground we placed it diagonally leaning against a wall or object (car tyre) and took a photo of the reflecting surroundings like objects around it.
YUENG
What are Yeung photos trying to do?
In my response to Yeungs photos my ones were particularly aimed at the sky to try get an effect with the clouds to make them look like a semitropical corresponding to the closest building to it. What I think she was trying to do was to create an optical illusions aimed at buildings, she is also trying to deceive the natural occurring vision of the human eye initially creating artificial shapes in a clear blue sky when edited.
ROMAIN JACQUET
MY RESPONSE
In my response to Romain Jacquets photos I believe it was a challenge to find a place/building covered or taken over by the green in a professional setting though there were a lot of spots were little plants are sprouting out of the ground with an infesting like purpose slowly infecting the concrete and day by day it gets bigger.
INDEPENDANT DEVELOPMENT
Matt Barnes
My muse en scene Matt barnes took the image 'cold stations' in Fuji 2009.'Cold stations' is a series of photos taken by Matt Barnes they all share something in common, he collective feature is that they were all taken at nighttime.These interesting photos are particularly intriguing because it is insight to what a gas station might look like when no-one is there.After researching he expressed that he wanted his key feature to be a photo which had desertion written all over it I think he wanted to explore the idea that what buildings/places would look like without any people.
Eliot Porter
Eliot Porter shows off the colourful scenery of nature, he does this by taking pictures of bushes or huge trees that have been affected by the natural causes of autumn Although this photo has no name it is the 50th anniversary of the wilderness act. However Porter uses a unique skill in defining his photos and perfecting his masterpieces the rich tonal colour range found in his photos was achieved through the dye transfer process, it is very complex and labour intensive but allows precise control over the image colour in my opinion I think porter considers the amount of the dye transfer he puts into his work because if he does not it would look like a lazy photo shopped picture.
Sato Torkhiro
Personally one my favourite Sato Torkhiro uses unique skills in the development of his photos he shows this off by using light emitting tricks to give off an illusion of the light running around the forrest like a child in this photo particularly he took it in the nighttime so the light trick can stand out a lot. In detail to his photos he uses a penlight a light time to form a maze like trail that follows him wherever he goes. In particular he uses a long shutter speed (long exposure) to not be captured in the final photo.
My response
To create these photos I had alter the cameras shutter speed, 10'-20' (ISO 100) we then had to put the aperture to F8. after all of that, using a dark setting so the light could stand out I then moved the light around sometimes making shapes or just random patterns in general, for making patterns it is key to cover the light with your hand to make your artificial image as precise as you can slowly forming the image of Sato Torkhiros photos.
Double Exposure
To create these photos I had to open a portrait in photoshop and depending on the base photo (if the photo was mainly white it will work better with certain backgrounds) I then had to find a background that was the most compatible with the base photo, turning it into a layer I selected the blending mode 'overlay' so the two photos would merge together so they would blend in essentially it turns out like the photos above.
Close up abstraction - Colin Winterbottom
Colin Winterbottom is a photographer that grew up in the Washington suburbs, essentially he earned a degree in economics and master of arts in philosophy. His photography has been profiled in the Preservation magazine his work is in many public and private collections, including Washington's DC's art in public places collection.
Development -close up and faraway
Above are the photos that I have taken inside I like these because it shows how structures inside a building can be affected by natural decay and cracking/moulding in my next photo shoot I will display close up far away structures in and outside the corridors.

Final Piece
What I like about these photos is that it shows how these structures have been affected by natural weathering and man made causes. it also shows how the beauty and natural elegance of man made and natural structures and how the light and original colour of them fades away over time.
It also brings out the to its viewers the luxury sight of ageing essentially, to the viewers this feat can let them see the how the world and nature alter the natural structure of inanimate objects.
