What is Gabriel Hemery's editing style?
He keeps his editing light and doesn't heavily edit his
images.
Choose 3 images you have taken and edit them in the style of Gabriel Hemery.

Are you happy with the results?
Explain your answer.
i am happy with the results, it was hard trying to find out
how he edits his images but it looks like he doesn't do a lot
anyway.
Will you use this editing style again?
i think i will, its simple and clean.
How could you link Hemery's photography style OR his editing style with your Home project?
I can link his editing style to my own project as i am also
taking photos of trees so i want to keep the photo as
natural as i am able to when editing.

The specific princess may be a personal preference, but it is the notion of someone being the beautiful heroine of her own story that carries the day

from the photos i took earlier, i used the text tool to add words i felt/ heard at the location i was.

i used 5 photoshop layers to edit this photo so the effects will show on each layer. Underneath the colour wheel, i clicked on adjustments and experimented with it.

I used adjustments to edit this photo on one layer. first going to image and onto adjustments, then clicking on curves and experimenting with it again.

This morning we were asked to go to a location for ten minutes and take pictures and write how i was feeling and what i was hearing and in my chosen space I felt calm as it was secluded, the space I chose allowed me to reflect on myself as it was a darker space as well as it being out of the way from common spaces, it was ideal for me as i have social anxiety.

The windows allowed for an actual reflection of myself. the text activity was good as it allows me to learn more on photoshop although I could have used more words and different fonts and sizes, next time I will take more time to experiment on these things.

in photography, leading lines are existing lines within a frame, in most situations the photo creates these lines.

André Kertész, born Andor Kertész, was a Hungarian-born photographer known for his groundbreaking contributions to photographic composition and the photo essay. I chose this image because i really liked the composition and the contrast in the shadows is really great.

# data[].attributes.body
With the photos I printed out I taped them to a bigger piece of paper so I could sketch over them before that , I rolled ink onto a plastic sheet so it was even and smooth l. Then I laid to two pieces of paper over the ink and started to sketch the image, after I was finished I peeled the pieces of paper off the ink to reveal the image printed onto the second piece of paper.

# data[].attributes.body
I tried writing a message but I had to write backwards which was difficult . It says ‘I have to write backwards’

I tried to print a photo with a lot of detail but I don’t think it worked that well because of how messy mono printing is. I think the simpler the image is, the easier it will be. Also I think I put too much ink on this one as you can’t really tell what’s going on.

# data[].attributes.body
With my printed image I carved it into a piece of foam and made sure it was really deep so that I could put a lot of ink into the foam. After I rolled the ink into the foam I put a piece of paper onto the foam and used a clean roller to put lots of pressure onto the foam. And after I peeled the paper off the foam it showed the image had transferred onto the paper.

# data[].attributes.body
The piece of foam used.

# data[].attributes.body
My first attempts weren’t so good as I thought that I’d have to use a light amount of pressure for the image to transfer like the mono printing I did before. However, these activities were very fun and I enjoyed it.

# data[].attributes.body
After I was finished I added extra detail by taking a different colour and printing over the previous print after sketching extra details in the foam.

Hamish Fulton born in 1946 is a British artist, since the 70s he has taken photos, creates illustrations wall texts of the walks he goes on. the image above has text which states the date, place and country, as well as Fulton's name, that the photo was taken at.

# data[].attributes.body
Fulton describes a 14 day walk in benicadell. Fulton's photographs are very simple, he tells shows you where he is,

# data[].attributes.body
Fultons images are what i think would be on a tourists pamphlet of sights to see.

# data[].attributes.body
Fulton shows his journey through the image and the text in the post above his photo shows he is on his way to the benicadell rock and in this photo he has arrived.

# data[].attributes.body
i like this image because its kind of a play on words as the image shows hands carving a skull, which has connotations of death and the text 'you kill time' it relates as the hands carving the skull is a way of doing something to 'kill time'.

# data[].attributes.body
As part of image and text i used photoshop and a drawing tablet to do a little doodle of a ghost sitting in a photo of a chair i took as part of week 4 homework. i drew a little ghost resting on the chair as i was feeling the Halloween spirit and to really drive it home i added the hand drawn text 'ghost' to clarify that's what it is. The words ghost chair link to my image because when i was taking the photo i found it weird there was a random chair in an empty room so i decided to edit a ghost sitting there because their wasn't anybody siting there.

# data[].attributes.body
i feel like these images are very edgy and have a darker tone to them, they are very political I think.

# data[].attributes.body
this is the first Barbara Kruger image i did. i like it but i think the dark green doesn't really make the image stand out as its too dark as a whole. i will add a lighter colour to make the image pop.

# data[].attributes.body
this is the second image i did i like it better as the colour i added is lighter and it makes the black and white image stand out more as well as the text.

# data[].attributes.body
the image i did for Hamish Fulton reflects his own work well as he writes the destination he is at rather than a political message or what he's feeling at the time.

# data[].attributes.body
i printed the same image twice. Here I ripped pieces of the image up and drew all over it. I focused more on the drawing over the writing. 'flow' is describing the waters movement. this isn't my favourite photo i did today as i didn't really know what i was gonna do with this one but i liked how it turned out and the experience was fun. the pattern i used here links to 'flow' because its flowing across the page just like the water is flowing over the rocks.

# data[].attributes.body
This image is of the flowers outside my house and I focused on writing more than drawing. i chose to focus on the flower and used words like 'pure' 'fresh' and 'wild' to describe the flower and put emphasis on it by drawing on the flower.

# data[].attributes.body
'at sunset' is meant literally as this photo was taken at sunset. I've also loosely drawn sunsets on each side of this image incase anyone missed the focus of this photo. i really like the double image that printed out, i enjoyed hand writing/ drawing on this image instead of digitally.

# data[].attributes.body
while i waited for more photos i edited this image. i was having fun here playing around with the colours. the blue and pink compliment each other and work well with the image.

# data[].attributes.body
Kertesz uses a horizontal line here which contrasts with the diagonal line of the well. the leading line takes your eyes downwards from the top of the well to the ground to the landscape behind the well. i chose this image because its so bare, with the lighter sky and darker ground, the contrast is so nice. examples of line in this image are where the ground meets the sky, the diagonal well and the trees leading the eye to the well which is a leading line which my eyes follow through the image.

Jim Goldberg is an American artist and photographer, whose work reflects long-term, in-depth collaborations with neglected, ignored, or otherwise outside-the-mainstream populations.

# data[].attributes.body
The imagery is showing a man walking away, like he is turning his back on the camera. The words are quite rude, it implies that this person has been bullied for being different and the image in the left hand corner supports that as well.

# data[].attributes.body
i cant even read that

# data[].attributes.body
i think that the best photo i took was the one with the yellow chair as i could do a lot with it in editing.

# data[].attributes.body
I also really like the first photo here as the blue house pops out against the white around it. the photo underneath it works well also as there's a bit of perspective, looking down on the street. however, i think the bottom middle photo isn't great as it isn't great quality and quite boring.

# data[].attributes.body
we were asked to take photos either from the inside of a window looking out or on the outside looking in the window.

# data[].attributes.body
edited homework.

in this image i am looking into a window of a crystal shop the line directs my eyes to the reflection in the window first where i can see another building behind me. the tone here is quite dark and this image reminds me of the fantasy books i read because of the
dragons and fairies in the shop window.

# data[].attributes.body
i can see people getting their hair cut inside the window but im eyes are immediately drawn to the car passing by

# data[].attributes.body
to recreate his photographs i first turned the image black and white and then selected blending option son the layer thumbnail and selected texture to give it an old timey look and played around with that until i came to the final image. i liked the end result because i enjoyed this task and i think it came out well

# data[].attributes.body
in this image i am looking out at buildings. this is where i am drawn to the most. the people underneath all look busy like they have somewhere to be. The tone here is kind of gloomy although it appears to be bright. The building in the middle reminds me of old medieval homes.

What is there?

What you actually see NOT your interpretation

What formal elements are you drawn to?

Line, tone, texture, shape, colour, pattern, form.

What are you reminded of?

Other artists work, buildings, films, places you’ve visited, etc.

How does the image make you feel?

William Henry Fox Talbot was many things but the thing he is the most famous of is calotype, one of the earlier methods of photography which used paper as material and made negatives that can be copied many times.

# data[].attributes.body
Fox Talbot invented the negative/positive process for producing photographs between 1835- 39 ? Any number of prints could be made from the same shot by transferring the negative image on to special paper.

Nicéphore Niépce (born Joseph) was the first to successfully experiment with photography and set foundations for future experimenters and photographers. His photographs needed long time of exposure but could be fixed to last in light without darkening.

Louis Daguerre, inventor of daguerreotype, pushed the photography (which was a young art at the time) in a right direction by shortening the time of exposure from few hours to few seconds

this weekend i will take photos of nature. i am interested in this because i like walking around and being in nature. i will probably do this over the weekend because i will have more free time to put my attention on photography and i will just walk around some parks because there's a lot of trees, nature and flowers around. i will use my camera and will also use my phone camera if i see something nice to take a photo of when im out an dnot with my camera.

# data[].attributes.body
Viewers can disagree about the quality or relevance of a photograph, and they can and usually generate multiple interpretations of the same image. It’s also common to read a photograph one way and then some time later, when re-visiting the photograph, read the same photograph a different way or arrive at a different interpretation.

On 9 January 1839, the French Academy of Sciences revealed the daguerreotype process to the world. Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre invented the technique and his 1837 still life entitled L'Atelier de l'artiste is thought to be the first daguerreotype to be produced using the process of exposure, development and fixation

You have some really lovely images showing dynamic uses of lines. I would like to see more of these. So make sure you are including contact sheets (or screen shots of thumbnails) of all the images you have taken.

# data[].attributes.body
Be careful when choosing artist images, as only the first image is by Barbara Kruger, the other two are by other artists but using her style.

When discussing work start going into much more detail, think of me standing next to you and saying "why?" whenever you write down an answer.  Get into the habit of fully explaining or justifying your answers.

# data[].attributes.body
i like this its fun and colourfull. The contrast between the green and the warmer brown makes the image look fresh. The line leads your eyes away from the leaf and separates it from the grass.

# data[].attributes.body
i like this image better, as the black and white makes it look more dramatic and more interesting with more contrast than the original edit

Hemery is a part-time professional photographer  his subjects include tree, forest and landscapes. His images have been used in magazines, books, merchandising, and global advertising. i have chosen this photograph because i was drawn to the leading line of this image, drawing your eyes up the tree trunk and onto the sun shining through leaves. this image makes me think of the feeling of sunshine through tree leaves in summer.

he shoots in micro four thirds format using Panasonic Lumix photography equipment. The small form of this format means it’s possible to carry a camera body and several lenses on a long trek, along with other hiking gear. The micro four thirds camera system was released by Olympus and Panasonic in 2008. . Micro four thirds is the evolution of four thirds, but without the mirror box."4/3" redirects here. For 4:3 image aspect ratio. I have chosen this photograph because I liked the texture of the clouds and the contrast of them with the sun shining on the land below. i t makes me think that it started raining soon after this was taken.

# data[].attributes.body
i chose this picture because i like the colour of this image and the way the further the trees get, the less saturated they become it makes your eyes drawn to the foreground of the image. this image tells me that the light source, the sun, is closer to the trees in the background. It makes me think that this was taken in the early morning.

# data[].attributes.body
The concept o f my photoshoot was nature but i leaned more towards trees and into two of my photos is a back to nature concept, it is an abandoned building near my house.
I wasn't really planning on having my photoshoot there because I was walking my dog but it was sunset and it looked pretty so I started taking photos on my phone, however, I liked how it turned out because there was a lot to take.
The shoot wasn't planned so it probably isn't as good as it could have been, as I was occupied with my dog more than taking photos, I could've experimented with angles.
i feel like the sunset made the shoot better and i especially like the bridge photo because of this.

# data[].attributes.body
i really like this edit better, the green hue gives it a twilight vibe, this image makes me feel very sad like I'm a 40 year old business man who hates his job.

# data[].attributes.body
this image also makes me feel gloomy but i don't think its as good as the coloured version. To me its not very interesting, the black and white makes the whole image monotone and boring.

What is sustainability?
Sustainability is when something is able to maintained and doesn't erode over time or put the environment around it at risk, it is infinite in resource and power, such as windmills and ocean energy, using ocean waves for power.
photography can be used to highlight how good it is for the environment to have sustainability in everyday life things, such as driving and recycling, photography can also show why its bad to litter and use things that aren't environmentally friendly such as using fossil fuels and single use plastics.
However by being a photographer we can easily be unsustainable as well, our cameras are electronic and has a limited lifespan.
By ordering new equipment that comes in packaging that often doesn't come biodegradable
I can use my theme, trees and nature, to highlight how what we do in everyday life that effects the nature around us, such as littering and the fumes out of cars as well as deforestation to make room for new buildings.

# data[].attributes.body
For my homework I will be taking photos of how sustainability is good for the environment by taking photos of nature to highlight how it can effect nature and energy use, i can show this by taking photos of animals in their natural habitat. over the weekend i will take my photos as i see animals and the ones I've already taken when i went down Southampton, at the wildlife park. having a food environment keeps these animals alive.

To emulate Gabriel Hemery's images, I will go to the rising sun because its a huge forest and there's a lot of trees to photograph.
I will be out of my comfort zone in this photoshoot because i will have to take multipole photos of the same subject and make them look all individual or interesting in their own way.
I will be taking photos of trees mostly, Hemery also does general Landscape so i might also try to recreate his work there.
I will probably use my phone because its more convenient to not take my camera a long distance.
I will probably be taking photos from the ground up to exaggerate the height, to make the trees look lager, I also want to recreate the image of Hemery's where you're looking up from the ground and you can see the sun shine through the trees leaves.

Henri Prestes is a Portuguese fine art photographer based in Southern Europe. Prestes started shooting small commercials for local companies when he purchased his
first still camera. He started going out at night to take photos and he was in love with this photography.

# data[].attributes.body
Prestes either uses some type of jelly on his lens to get this effect or its the way he edits the photos and i want to try and emulate this with my own images

# data[].attributes.body
these images look like they have been painted rather than them being actual photos

# data[].attributes.body
In this image i tried to emulate Prestes' works by taking the photo inside a car when it was raining, i also used a blending brush in photoshop to try and recreate the blurriness in his images.

What genre of photography do you prefer working in?
i like doing landscape photography, but usually i just take photos of things that i like.

What will push you out of your comfort zone?
I'm not quite sure, I've not been doing photography for a long time so its all out there.
