My first most successful photograph was chosen as the first best due to the fact that most things went well with it. i placed my tripod in the middle of the road, giving it an even and balanced composition. it also consists of leading lines, rule of thirds and negative space. the ISO and white balance was well set and that is the reason the image was well exposed. My second most successful photograph was also a decent photograph because it had leading lines and it guides you towards the end. it also has rule of odds.it the last photograph was chosen for the fact that it was nice and clear and lines could be seen but however because of the bright electrical board ruining the view, it basically brought the photograph from being the best to average.

The first photograph is the framer within a frame composition, the second photograph is the point of view composition and the last one is the reflection. these three are the different aspects of composition.

on the left hand side the photographs from Vauxhall trip can be seen.  these photographs did not come out well and according to the plan and the task given. one of the reason for this was because most of us were prepared for the weather outside and when we went there it was freezing cold and it was hard to capture photographs with all the passion, ambition and excitement i had. the weather was also dark and cloudy.
The first cityscape photograph has some motion blur and cityscape view which is good as this was the plan before the trip. it also has some leading lines as well as rule of third. there is also some negative space, patterns and different POV.
the second photograph doesn't have much speciality but however it was one of the best one i have taken due to the fact that it is HD and is well exposed. however the framing and balancing of the photograph isn't the best and that's what makes it look a bit off balance. apart from that, it has patterns, negative space, rule of odds and rule of third. the third photograph is similar to the second one with similar compositions.
The ISO and white balance for all the bottom two were 200 and cloudy. however this was changed later on to the first best photograph and because the shutter speed was slow, i could not use the same settings so i had to change it and reduce the ISO to 100 and also change the aperture to control the light going inside the camera otherwise it would become overexposed.

In this trip I have experienced and gained some good knowledge of how to take good photographs while keeping in mind all the aspects of composition of a photograph. the first photograph was the best out of all my photographs taken at excel centre. there was only one issue with the photo and it was raised and pointed out by Sheila and that's the framing.
Almost every aspect of composition was used in this photograph apart from framing I failed to do so. I have negative space and I could have got ridden of that by capturing the entire building on the right and reduce the negative space on the left of the photograph. the ISO and the white balance was set well to the weather conditions on that day. my ISO was 200 and the white balance on cloudy.
overall it is a very effective photographs due to its unique, ancient and ghostly look as if the buildings and everything has been there for centuries. the colour of the letters in red also matches the colour of the ships which sends a message and could have a hidden meaning to it. the most interesting part is the reflection in the eater which makes this photograph unique and special. framing method was used for the second photograph but however the framing was used incorrectly once again.
The third photograph, for the third time I have struggled to capture the right frame and balance out the image and this is one of my weaknesses which was also pointed out by Sheila so I need to focus and work more on this

this is the research and photographs of all the famous photographers who does landscape photography. their unique and special work gives me many different ideas on what sort of photographer I would like to be in the future. I have a very good interest in taking landscape photographs and would love this to be my career. I love being different to others and create something new that others may not know about or something that's there but its not famous or well known. an example on this could be mixing portrait photography with landscape and cityscape photography. this will give it a very unique and special look completely different to what other photographers may be taking. to make it even better, different settings could also be used such as black and white. this will completely change how a photograph may appear.

in conclusion, looking at these photographers and all their techniques and skills, I be combining and mixing individual's skills to create my own special way of being a photographer. the work of photographers that attracts me the most are Charlie Waite, Robert Adams, David Naton and Paul Reiffer. Charlie's work is more based on calm and relaxing nature, colourful, with different seasons and different mood whereas Robert's work mainly based on black and white, giving it an old, ancient texture and old look more like photographs from world wars. David's work is very similar to Charlie's work and almost have similar ideas but David takes pictures of nature whereas Charlie takings photographs of nature that involves patterns, leading lines and other compositions.

Paul Reiffer's photography attracts me the most and I will be using his work to plan my shoot plan and do my individual shoot. his photography is at night where he captures the unseen beauty of cities and the busy roads.

We went to Oxford street to put all the camera techniques, taught in the class into practice. In regards to the location, nothing was planned and we had to create ideas and suggestions on the spot. At the start i was struggling with the camera's settings and the photographs were overexposed and bright. i have changed the ISO to 200 as it was a sunny and bright day. when I was in Oxford street, on that day i didn't know much about aperture and what it does so i didn't adjust it. My group and i then decided to change our location since we could't do much about the overexposure of the photographs. we then started to get well exposed images and capture motion. My first most successful photograph was also chosen by the class as one of the best photograph. it was taken as the bus was moving and there were some people standing there but how ever the photo was blurry and did not come out perfect.

Photoshop is not only for improving the quality of photographs but it can also be used to create exciting and cool photographs. we can change photographs from colour to black and white to give it a different and unique texture and look. we can also invert photograph where the black or dark areas in an image becomes white and the white or bright areas in an image becomes black. you can also be creative and change the appearance of the photographs and make it look completely different to the original Photograph. The Hue/Saturation option is where you can change the colour of the image. you can also change the sharpness of the image and change it the way you think looks good.

We used Photoshop to experience and learn the basics of how to improve photographs that were not taking well with a camera. these photographs can be underexposed or overexposed. Photoshop will help us produce better quality image than to the one taken with a camera when our settings were not set well. we can use Photoshop mainly for the purpose of correcting minor issues with the photographs. In Photoshop an option called brightness/contrast is where i edited my photographs and changed the underexposed ones to well exposed and overexposed to well exposed too.

Zoom burst occurs when a camera is zoomed in or zoomed out while taking the picture. it creates more like leading lines towards the centre of the photograph, taking your attention to the middle. most of the time these photographs will look blury and would have lines for you to  be directed to one spot that the photograph is focused on. this can be seen in two photographs titled as zoom burst.

# data[].attributes.body
motion blur occurs when two objects, a moving object and a steady object comes in front of the camera. it is basically the contrast between something or someone moving and something or someone standing still both at the same time. it can be seen very well in photographs titled as motion blur.

# data[].attributes.body
in this activity we practiced and noticed what camera shake, zoom burst and motion blur is. Looking at the photographs titled as camera shake, we can clearly see that camera shake has occurred and the reason behind that is when a camera is set to any shutter speed slower than 1/60, camera shake will occur. camera shake can be noticed when photograph is blurred and can not be seen clearly.

for this activity we had to go out to Clapham common park and take photos based on the composition i was taught in the class. my camera setting was set perfectly for the right weather and lighting conditions. it was a cloudy day, my ISO was quite high in a range of 1600/3200 due to low lighting conditions, my white balance was set to cloudy.
The main purpose of this activity was the understand the principle of composition and use all the rules in photographs. below is a list of the rules used in composition.
there are as follow: rule of third, perspective, negative space, rule of odds, different angles, centre of picture, framing, point of view, frame within a frame and many more. in this activity it can be seem that most of these rules have been used such as the bench which creates leading lines and rule of third. On the right, there are contact sheet of all the pictures taken and 11 best were chosen.

Paul Reiffer has a very unique way of taking photographs. He uses low shutter speed, motion blur, reflection, low light condition and other techniques to capture cityscape photographs.
His work in his website is displayed in a large full screen format with slide show. he displays all his famous photographs in his website. I have learnt that taking photograph at dark gives a very unique and special texture and beauty to the photographs.  the two locations for my photo shoot will be the Tate Modren and Kingston. I will go to Tate Modren at night time because I would like to capture motion of the moving cars with a low shutter speed similar to the photographer I selected. I will also be going to Kingston at night to capture the traffics moving on A3 and another street there. I will need a camera, tripod, warm cloths, SD card and extra battery. the tripod will help me in taking motion photographer as it will hold the camera still when my shutter is low. holding the camera in hand and taking motion photographs, specially the ones with longer shutter speed will create camera shake.
I will use tongstune white balance due to the fact that most cars have tongstune lights. the ISO will be around 100/200 and my shutter speed will be at the range of 10 seconds to 30 seconds.

The first photograph had come out according to the plan. The centre of the photograph is the brightest whereas the edges or the frame of the photograph is darker than the centre giving an idea of where to look in the image. Natural light is used for taking this photograph. the direction of the female is towards the sun or the light meaning that she is walking towards success or a better future. because the sun is half covered in branches, it can also mean that the female is in search of success or looking for a better and brighter future. The shadows can represent bad days and it is clearly seen that she is leaving the shadow behind and is not looking back at all. she is concentrated and looks very straight towards the light. The spring season can also represent happiness and freshness.
The second photograph is also an image with a powerful message similar to the first one but however in second the light has been blurred out. the light comes from the centre and we also have the main subject at the centre. The innocence look of the little girl and the dog can represent companion, friendship and no to animal cruelty. The light has a yellowish colour due to the autumn season and it gives a connection with the colour of the dog and the girl sending a message that we are all the same and should be treated equally.

The first photograph was taken by Stuart Low. He comes from a family who were all farmers and hard working people and that's where he got the idea of landscape nature photography. This photograph was named as the spooky wood. it has a very unique and special look when looked in depth. the first thing is that pattern technique is used and all trees are in line. the trees are also creates leading lines which directs you to the end where you see bright light more like if there is an open door. it gives  an image as if that is the door to heaven or success. This is what makes him a landscape photographer. the photo has a very unique colour, the colour of the trees, the floor and the shadows/ dark areas gives it a scary look more like a ghost controlled area.
The second photograph was taken by Graham McPherson. This photograph made into the 2012 take a view landscape photographer of the year book and it was published at the London Theatre, as well as getting attention of several media and being published. The speciality about this photograph is that it has leading lines which directs and focuses you on the centre of the photograph. The other technique is that the lavenders are patterned. The leading lines directs you to sunset and redyesh sky. This is am infinite view which makes it a landscape photography.
