Forced perspective is a technique which employs optical illusion to make an object appear farther away, closer, larger or smaller than it actually is. It manipulates human visual perception through the use of scaled objects and the correlation between them and the vantage point of the spectator or camera.

Eric LAFFORGUE

Ever since he was young, he has been fascinated by far away countries and travelling, and spent some time in Africa, unknowingly retracing Monfried and Joseph Kessel’s footsteps when he was 10 years old in Djibouti, Ethiopia and Yemen.

He started taking photographs in 2006. Quickly, magazines and newspapers from all over the world like Geo, Nat Geo, Lonely Planet Magazine, etc began using his work for illustrations on North Korea, Papua New Guinea, the tribes of Ethiopia, etc.

In 2008, his work on the people of Papua is displayed at the prestigious VISA photojournalism festival in Perpignan.
Eric Lafforgue spends most of his time travelling the globe to share his encounters, through the perception of an ethnologist and the heart of an artist, privileging the regions or populations in danger and less usually visited countries.

He is Sony Ambassador.

Only due to me using the flash to capture this picture of this boy. I meant to capture and focus on the image of him but also, try and highlight the warship in the background. Instead the flash with it's brightness only overexposed the image.

Now with more understanding and Knowledge about the Camera and settings, and how to utilize them effectivly to capture different types of Images.
I can now hopefully compose and capture and interpretate and define the images i want to capture.
And with continually time and practise become a better photographer.

After My Planned and finished Cityscape Shoot,  discovered some similiariity with some of the style, colour, and feel of these cityscape pictures to my own. Even though it was to emulate a mood or scene or Photographer.

I liked to show colour and motion and vibrant images to my own cityscape motion pictures.

This was shot at night at Canary Wharf. I waited to try and capture one of Canary Wharfs Main Buildings. I like how successful i got to frame and capture the building and the trees with lights which also enhanced and framed it superbly.

I decided to research the popular photographer's Julien Grondin and Paul Reiffer. I got excited with their Camera style of cityscape shoots which are vibrant, colourful, creative and imaginative.
Scrolling through the many cityscape image's online to research and understand and learn, but  I couldn't escape how intelligent and beautiful was their  pictures.
Julien's website also however gave anybody's interest in this style and art form step by step tutorials and helpful advice in creating and capturing photo's.
Vidoes on his websie explains each process.
With this new found information and knowledge, i can then hopefully apply this knowledge to my own picture's
I have already understand the technical side of motion capture, motion blur and zoom bursts, and what camera settings to use . Therefore I can use the knowledge learnt and impliment them within my own photo's.
Shutter Speeds to either freeze,blur or capture trail lines.

Self-taught, Julien Grondin — a.k.a. Beboy photographies [Beboy Photographs] — has been a photographer for more than ten years. He began his career as a graphic designer and developed a special attraction to color work. He acquired a digital SLR and started by practicing different kinds of photography — but soon started focusing on shooting cityscapes.

While living in Paris, the photographer criss-crossed the capital, whose great monuments became his first source of inspiration: “My idea was to revisit the classics, to give a different interpretation to places that have already been heavily photographed, by looking for a new angle or a unique light.” Definitively fascinated by cities, he has decided to pursue his photographic adventure in the great cities of the world, setting out to discover the streets of New York, Los Angeles, London, Singapore, Shanghai, Bangkok, Hong Kong, etc.

Julien Grondin’s compositions are characterized by high dynamics. Favoring long exposure times, bold framing, and twilight, the photographer literally sets the stage for the city, placing it at the center of a living whole. Light, whether natural or artificial, is omnipresent in his work, giving his photographs a dominant and sometimes spectacular “pop.” “Even more than the photos themselves, it is the cities and their immensity that attract me. Taking the time to feel the place where I am is very important to me, which is why my best photos are usually taken at the end of my first week there, and not before.”

To live his passion, Julien Grondin has decided to devote his life to travel. He began this new nomadic adventure at the beginning of April 2013, traveling the world with his girlfriend, looking for ever more spectacular images.

" On some of the Capturing Motion Blur picture's, would be more an improvement and crisper and sharper camera shot's if  I used maybe a Tripod " and not any other ways to steady the camera
