This image makes me feel nostalgic, they are all working as a team together however, they are fighting for their lives in fear.

# data[].attributes.body
This image suggests that men are running back to their own trenches, I can feel fear within this image. The contrast between the black and the whites makes the image more mysterious.

This image makes me smile in respect, as it shows war hero's having their dinner, still living their life, but not like anyone else because they are living in a trench fighting not only for us but their own survival.

Looking at this photo, I feel amazed that the soldiers can act so casual when they are the ones fighting on the front line for the country.

# data[].attributes.body
This image makes me feel thankful, this image shows a huge amount of soldiers which is only a small portion of the Army.

# data[].attributes.body
This image interests me as the audience, as it looks like the soldiers are stuck and are looking for a way out, setting up their camp in the middle of a Forrest.

# data[].attributes.body
This image makes me feel almost sick, the amount of dead bodies on the floor should be overwhelming for anyone viewing.

# data[].attributes.body
This image makes me feel sympathetic to the pilot, the war was started out of greed and extremism resulting in the mass murder of millions gloabaly.

# data[].attributes.body
This image also makes me feel ill because of how raw it it, you can not stage a war photo like this. The bodies pilled up suggest no one cared - which suggests an a public assassination to me as they do not look like soldiers.

# data[].attributes.body
This image makes me feel proud, imagine your flying a plain for the war, you could loose your life in so many different ways, but yet soldier on and all they needed was a tab to calm them down.

# data[].attributes.body
This image is kind of scary to me as you would never see a pilot in this day and age hanging off the propeller of a plain trying to fix it.

# data[].attributes.body
This image makes me feel nostalgic, as people are loosing their lives but there are people risking their lives to help save other injured people.

John Warwick Brooke was an official British war photographer in World War I. Being a press photographer, he dropped from the Topical Photo Agency in 1915 and enrolled as an NCO in King Edward Horse, where he was awarded D.C.M. and commissioned 2nd Lt. in 1916. The same year he joined Ernest Brooks becoming the second British official war photographer.

Why did you choose these images?
I chose these images because I feel like these are behind the scenes images of the war, Which interest me. These are not typical photos of the war. For example most people would expect to see trenches.

What stands out in these images?

I love the balance between the whites and the black in the image, It really exaggerates the war time feel.

How does these images make you feel?
These images make me feel like this was the easier part of the war (if there is such a thing) which makes me slightly happy as i know the war would have been the worst thing to be put through.

Sir Donald McCullin, CBE, Hon FRPS, is a British photojournalist, particularly recognized for his war photography and images of urban strife. His career, which began in 1959, has specialised in examining the underside of society, and his photographs have depicted the unemployed, downtrodden and the impoverished.

Within the conflict images I can see; devastation, energy and anger. These are all interpenetrated through the use of mid tones throughout the  images. I love creating atmosphere by increasing the strengths of the blacks in an image, this makes the image look more full and gives it an emotion. #1 Shows devastation due to a house being blown up.
#2 Shows power and energy as they are charging forward as a stampede.
#3 Shows intimidation by having a tank drive down streets as if they were cars.

However in comparison, the peaceful photos use more a neutral peaceful feeling.

Within the peaceful images I  see/feel; loneliness, nature and scenery. Some words that jump to mind are; Empty, Alone, Peaceful, Natural and untouched. The dark's seem to be very dark and the whites seem to be very bright however on the second image a haze might have been layered on top.
#1 Shows an empty farmers field in what looks like Northumberland, It has been isolated and the colors create an interesting contrast between them.
#2 Shows Peace and escape, the hazy fog makes the image more calming and mysterious and you cant see what lies ahead.
#3 Shows what I can only interpenetrate as a natural way of living. In comparison to Image #1 of the conflict images, The house has been destroyed and is angry and upset about that but #3 of the peaceful image shows a scruffy house that is slowly falling apart, but its still all together and the people in the image do not seem upset, again i think this is their natural way of living since they can afford a can of heinz.

I like the use of motion blur in contrast to the focus point, I also like how the image is in black and white as it allows your eyes to focus on the people in focus rather than being distracted by colours.

This could inspire me to play with longer shutters whilst shooting street photography. It would add complexity to my images.

# data[].attributes.body
I like how the colours have been brought out in the image, the pinks and blues create a nice contrast. The image is also symmetric which aesthetically pleases the eye and creates perfect reflections which makes the image more calming.

This may inspire me to explore the early hour colours (blues + pinks) and also to think more about compositions and camera placement.

# data[].attributes.body
I like how there are leading lines lead your eye to the isolation of the subject, I also like the black and white effect. It makes you think of the struggle the subject went through to get to that point. I also like the lines (wires) leading from the the pylon into the distance on to the next.

This might inspire me to explore more conceptual work within photography.

# data[].attributes.body
Problems : A big problem that I faced was trying to get the camera to focus through the glass ball. I knew I really wanted to follow through this idea as I feel like it shows isolation the best.

Overcome : I over came this by taking photos from different focus points. I also tried to position the ball in better places in order to get the most eye catching picture.

# data[].attributes.body
Problems : Some problems I faced was trying to get the image to look appealing. I noticed the photos I was taking looked boring, so I shot them underexposed and in post ill be able to bring the details out.

Overcome : I was bored of shooting boring looking images so I went and grabbed one of my class mates to model with the headphones on.

The photographs you have taken are well composed however I don't believe these are the best you can do.

Look back at the imagery you have researched and briefly discussed, how are you incorporating conceptual imagery and colours into your work?

I would like you to re-shoot both ideas, make them more personal and personable. The audience needs to connect with what you are trying to say. Although the images are well taken I don't feel connected to them and I KNOW you can do SO much better :)

What I like about this composition is that the buildings on each side of the sign acts as leading lines. This then gives the sign a sort of isolation.

# data[].attributes.body
What I like about this image is that the subject is standing directly in the middle of the composition. What I like even more is how the anonymous mask is facing us dead in the center. The police in the background also makes for a nice depth of field.

# data[].attributes.body
I like how the sign is directly in the middle of this composition and also how the people around it have darker blacks than he sign is self, contrasting against the background.

# data[].attributes.body
I like this image because I feel like it is all over the place. I love the divided between the police at the bottom and the civilian onto of the lamppost. I feel like the smoke and the burning building on fire creates negative space towards the top/left of the image.

This is a poster that I designed in order to be mounted on to a placard and protested. The protest is about peace, and when I think about peace that means no war and no conflict.
I came up with the idea of "drop acid not bombs", a slogan took from the 60s, a friendly time and we remember the 1960s as an era of activism and social change.

HOW you made your experiment, test, piece of work

I used photoshop to edit my photos, while watching a video tutorial from youtube. The tutorial instructed me to mess around with the curves, playing around with the RGB layers. This changed the overall colour and tone of the image, making it slightly yellow and saturated, mirroring an image from the 1960s.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BC3jMMF3Aao

WHY you chose certain materials and mediums

I was instructed by the video tutorial to use the curves rather than the hue and saturation. The way I knew how to do it was just to increase the saturation and the warmth, but this way was just as effective.

WHAT you set out to do? What were your original intentions?

My original intentions were to make the image more saturated and yellow, making it appear older looking. I think I achieved this look, however, I think it might be a little bit too yellow for my tastes.

WERE there any problems?

There were no problems, although I did have to watch certain parts of the video more than twice as it was an area of photoshop that I was not aware of.  Here I am referring to the curves tab, more precisely individually changing the RGB columns.

COMPARE this test/edit with another, how are they similar/different? Which would you take forward & WHY?

My yellow edit, is the image that is least appealing to me. I feel like this is because the image has been drowned heavily in yellow colouring and contrast. I think because the image is already quite a bright image the yellow does not do it the right justice.

For the best effect I realised that for me anyways, black and white stands out more compared to the yellow edit and gives the image more depth and strength. By dropping the midtones and adding a bit of noise, It reflects the working style of certain photographers in the 1970s/80s.

# data[].attributes.body
I chose to do this design because when I think of the 60s I think it as an era of activism and social change. I also feel like the 'acid' tabs and the 60's font scream 60s. I remember watching a film based on Charles Manson, and three were several referenced to peace > acid in the documentary and how acid was peaceful to them.

Describe what you did in the workshop

I had to use photoshop in order to design a poster, demonstrating peace. My placard design was "drop acid not bombs". In order to show how I feel about war. I feel like my poster reflected my intentions.

Idea 1

Light trails - Will show lazy shutter, lights trailing behind, shows peace = me taking it slow. Also colour contrasts red + blue. Peace to me, Being in the car, taking photos.

Idea 2

Self portraits: Black + White clothes, black or white backdrop, edit images in black and white to show clean, crisp images. Shows me being content.

Idea 3

Self portraits: edit me how I want to show me being different and showing myself how I want to be seen.

Photographer name: Mark Peterson @markpetersonpixs

Link to peace: It shows people how they need to be captured, needs to show importance, as they are of important people. Just like Peace in my project.

Influence on photoshoot: The images looks sharp, as he takes photos of important people. The images are also in black and white, in order to further exaggerated that these are serious photos of important people.

Photographer name: Robin Hammond @hammond_robin

Link to peace: Links to the project as, the images are showing people doing there own thing, how they want themselves to be seen.

Influence on photoshoot: Real, documented. Showing real people being themselves, edits are suited to the person, environment, movements or actions.

Photographer name: Matt Black @mattblack_blackmatt

Link to peace: There is no conflict in the images, as they all seem peaceful. Blacks and Whites, very light.

Influence on photoshoot:  Blacks and whites to strip back to what they actually want you to see. Blacks and whites contrast against each other.

What you think of the placard you made?

I think my placard design was very powerful as well as the message behind it. I am aware it was slightly inappropriate, but I noticed that my point had got across.

How could you have improved it?

To improve, I could have added extra trippy bits of colours to further exaggerate the message.

Did you enjoy being part of the protest?

I didn't really like being in the protest, however I really enjoyed taking photos of the protest. This might inspire me to look out for more political opportunities.

# data[].attributes.body
This is a contact sheet full with my own self portraits. My aim is to try and show peace with my self portraits. Showing me as my own peace, or being at peace with my self.

# data[].attributes.body
I really like this piece as only half of the face is shown and the hand is covering the side that you can see. Hiding identity or showing themselves the way they wanted to be seen. I like the reflection-like part in the bottom right hand corer, as it adds to the image, maybe the subject is trying to hide his identity from that man.

# data[].attributes.body
I took inspiration from the unknown artist above when composing this image. So I hid part of my face and covered it with my hand like the artist above.

I feel like this image came out successfully as I feel like I am showing me, in the style of another artist. I also feel kind of creeped out by the image, which I think is due to my wide, white eyes and the dark, black background. What catches my eye the most is the shininess of the watch and the ring. I feel like it adds the things that are missing in the image.

To improve I think I could have either filled the space of the composition or cropped the image down more, so that there is less negative space on the top.
However I do like the concept that my mind is disappearing into the darkness, which further exaggerates the creepiness of the image.

# data[].attributes.body
I was on Instagram and seen this post through my stories. I feel like it hides/shows identity really well, and I like the use of the newspaper in the image. I really like how the eye is looking up like as if its fed up. I feel like it gives the image a creepy/weird feeling. Which I like.
So I might take inspiration from this image.

The work you have produced, can you link it to an artist you have seen or a time period that links with the task?

# data[].attributes.body
Excellent imagery Scarlet, can you link the work you have produced and edited to any imagery you have seen or researched as part of the demonstration workshop or the Peace project as a whole?

# data[].attributes.body
The editing on the images is crisp and beautifully textured. Your compositions are excellent. Be careful of accessories in your images that you don't require and that may draw attention from the centre or focus of the photograph.

# data[].attributes.body
Do you have any of your own images that you could link to the photojournalists you have researched? This link could be made through composition or editing style.
