The texture of the grass looks to be smooth and soft. The way they fall is scattered and creates various hidden shapes.]]> 2018-04-23 18:27:12 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/254553951 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/254554171 With this photograph I didn’t particularly focus the camera on any one place, because I think that the contrast of the leaves in the photo suited well. Their major difference is clearly visible – one leaf being dry and crusty and the other being healthy and smooth.]]> 2018-04-23 18:27:38 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/254554171 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/254554685 To take this photograph, again, I used my phone.I focused the camera on the end of the leaf and the flowers. The texture of the leaves looks relatively smooth . I picked this particular area because of the placing of the flowers.]]> 2018-04-23 18:28:41 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/254554685 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/254555100 I used my phone to take this photograph, and I had it so the camera focused onto the leaf.
The texture of the leaf looks to be dry and rough.

I used a Nikon DSLR camera.

This photograph will help me make progress with my project because I could capture multiple angles, have the composition of the photograph change ever-so-slightly with each photo.
The shapes in McEvoy's image below are the basic rectangles, circles, squares & triangles, but they're put together in such a way that makes the building itself look simplistically aesthetic.]]> 2018-05-08 10:31:21 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/258843080 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/258844918 Again, like the image I uploaded to my padlet for Rick McEvoy, I've uploaded this image because of the general composition of it. This photograph links to my project because it's a great example to follow by to help promote the area.
This photograph will help my progress because its an example to go by. Where the light hits the building in the photograph, it creates a slight glow on the image; and in a way, helps promote the area to which this building sits.]]> 2018-05-08 10:39:26 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/258844918 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/258939619 I decided to add this time-lapse to my padlet because I like to think it shows a route; although it's quick and tends to hurt the onlookers eyes, it still shows a journey.]]> 2018-05-08 14:52:14 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/258939619 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/258947993 I think this photograph, along with the others, can help me make progress with my project because the leading lines could be a good feature to help promote the area I am focusing on. This image links to all my other photographs as they all lead up to my final photographs. They all progress to my final pieces of work.
The colours, lines and textures in this photograph work extremely well together. The fluorescent glow over the top of the picture helps the flow and smooth transition of the different textures. It also emphasises the lines (which separate each texture) a lot.]]> 2018-05-08 15:09:12 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/258947993 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/258948419 I think this picture, like the picture to the right of this, will help my progress because the lines point to where you want the audience to look. This photo has leading lines; but the textures are much wider a range, and the smooth transition is not as obvious. As I had the camera set to 'auto' I cannot tell which white balance is on this photograph, but I think the naturalness and colours in the image are emphasized by the pale-peach path. ]]> 2018-05-08 15:10:10 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/258948419 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/258948715 Although this image is a lot like the one to the right, it is not the same. This is slightly further up the path; you're able to see the change in texture for the path. Slowly, you are able to tell that these previous images have created a still sense of journey as the composition and texture in each of the images changes. The leading lines in this photograph have you focus at the end of the image, but at the same time, it encourages you to explore to the sides of the photograph.]]> 2018-05-08 15:10:44 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/258948715 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/258949225 In this photograph you can see that there isn't much actually happening and it's sort of messy, yet it draws you in. Personally, I think that it may be the leading lines which draws the audience in to the picture because it's tidier and it has you look to the end of the path. That, I think, may be the only thing which draws the eye of the viewer. This photograph can help me with the 'Location, Location, Location' project because it demonstrates what I shouldn't do to help promote the area I'm focusing on. The (main) texture in this photograph looks to feel quite rough and like it might give you a small cut. The other texture in this photograph is deceiving as it looks smooth but is ever-so-slightly rough.]]> 2018-05-08 15:11:44 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/258949225 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/258949726 I added this photograph to my padlet because it's different (and similar) to the other photographs in the series. The leading lines aren't as obvious but you're still able to follow them as the people in the photograph don't completely block them. With the people in the photograph it makes the feel of the journey more realistic.]]> 2018-05-08 15:13:00 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/258949726 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/258956841 This image (contact sheet) below is a series of the other pictures already featured and more images I took. If you look closely you can see, together, they form a journey. Up until the end of the 'journey' there are clear leading lines. ]]> 2018-05-08 15:27:50 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/258956841 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/260422919 Location: Welwyn Garden City.

I think this photograph would help me promote Welwyn Garden because a lot of people do enjoy the nature as well as knowing there's somewhere close to go and eat (or buy) something. The colours and shades in the photo give a slightly warm, welcoming feel.]]> 2018-05-18 14:59:14 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/261949050 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/261974504 With this photograph you're able to see the different textures and the leading lines clearly. The roughness of the ground against the slim, smooth tracks is contradictory, and it works well. I think this image is sort of aesthetically pleasing, mainly because of the leading lines and how the diamond shape lines up almost perfectly. Also, I tried to line up the bottom of the diamond shape with the middle of the tracks.]]> 2018-05-18 16:06:27 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/261974504 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/262340396 Majority of the shapes in this photograph are rectangles and that really makes my friend in the picture stand out because he isn't rectangular. The lines in this photograph dominate the image, they all lead down to my friend at the end of the wall. They really help him stand out.]]> 2018-05-21 12:55:32 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/262340396 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/262341245 I put this on my padlet to show that there's a lot of people who visit Welwyn Garden City. This photograph links to the other images because they're all progressing to my final finished pieces of work. The amount of different textures and colours in this photo is substantial; the subtle differences between one colour and another is everywhere, but the texture difference is so much more obvious. For example, the hedge looks to have a rough, prickly texture and the pavement in front and behind it a much smoother surface.]]> 2018-05-21 12:58:00 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/262341245 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/262343141 I uploaded this photograph to my padlet to show some of Welwyn Gardens valued buildings. In this picture I love how the railings on the sides of the stairway points to the Shredded Wheat building. I like the tidiness pf the image, though it could be improved by actually having the Shredded Wheat logo showing.]]> 2018-05-21 13:04:08 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/262343141 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/262489985 For these last images I photographed some shops, supermarkets and cafes to show (as examples) which shops, etc. to go into, though the majority of the shops in Welwyn Garden are in the Howard Centre. In the picture below, the sunlight (I think) frames Costa well. I used the inspiration of Ben Wood, and the image that features below, to help take this photo. The sun isn't exactly sitting on the front of the building, like his is, but I feel like this promotes Costa somewhat.]]> 2018-05-21 19:37:09 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/262489985 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/262490341 This was one of the harder photographs to get as the sunlight wasn't in the place I needed to get a better photograph. However, I did my best. The dull lines on the ground point to the Sainsbury's logo, but it's not too flattering or helpful. It's one of my least favourite photographs that I've taken on here, simply because of the dull and awkward placing of the logo.]]> 2018-05-21 19:38:15 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/262490341 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/262490721 The progress this photograph could help me with is of what not to do when photographing buildings. It doesn't flatter the building, or make me want to go into it. I could improve this photo by choosing a different angle to take the photo, and changing the time of day I go to take the photographs.]]> 2018-05-21 19:39:25 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/262490721 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/262491011 The lines in this photograph make the John Lewis building look a lot better, they help it aesthetically.

Just like the previous shoots, I will be using a phone camera. With this shoot, I plan to photograph some of the shops and cafe's. I'm going to photograph shops and cafe's because it shows where you could go to do some shopping or sit down for a coffee.

Outcome: The shoot, I would say, was only partially successful; because I got shops and cafe's, but did not succeed in the lighting aspect of the photographs.]]> 2018-06-05 09:56:59 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/265593524 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/265593958 Plan: I plan to do my first Location shoot in multiple places. What I'm going to be using to take these photographs will be my phone camera. My intention for this shoot  is to help see which town I think needs a little boost. I'm going to be doing my shoot in multiple places because it will help me choose which town to promote.

Outcome: In my opinion, the plan went well. The photographs came out better than I expected, as a phone-quality camera isn't the best to use. The shoot was quite successful in helping me  pick and choose which location to stick with.]]> 2018-06-05 09:59:44 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/265593958 noodles2001 https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/265598820 Plan: From my previous shoot, I concluded that the shoot helped me choose which location but did not specify which I chose. The location I plan to continue the last two shoots for is Welwyn Garden City. The equipment I'm going to use is a higher quality phone camera. What I intend to do is photograph what I deem the important areas of Welwyn Garden City.
I chose to continue with Welwyn Garden City instead of the other locations I originally chose from because I feel as though it's not an area that's appreciated enough.

Outcome: The outcome of this shoot I would say was relatively successful. Majority of the photos shown have leading lines in them, which I think helps promote the area.]]> 2018-06-05 10:29:52 UTC https://padlet.com/noodles2001/fiv8qcy3tx86/wish/265598820
