Work Diary - Eleventh Shoot

Evaluation 

This shoot is a follow-up of my previous 'ageing' shoot, however this time i decided to focus on a new perspective of ageing, and shot at Leigh on Sea, where i found rusted chains, decaying boats and wood etc. I enjoyed shooting this, especially because it is a different scenery and background to my other photos. I was lucky enough that it was a nice day so the sky was blue, and my camera was able to shoot without a flash. I also liked using more close-up shots, as previously in this project i have focused on portraits and mid-shots. I enjoyed zooming into rusted areas, and my camera was able to pick up the texture of the surfaces which made the photograph much more effective. Overall, I am happy with the result of this shoot, the photos are just as i would have liked them and i was able to shoot the photos i already had in mind, initially before taking the images.


This is one of the shots i took, and is one of my favourites. I like the contrast between the blue, cloudy sky and the rusted chains. I also like that photo shows the texture of the chains, and the rust forming on them. I think this photo is a perfect example of the evidence of 'ageing.' 


This is another photograph from the shoot. I like this photo particularly because of the contrast between the colours of the interior of the boats that still vibrant and visible, and everything else that is weathering away. I also like that it is clear that the photo is displaying the 'ageing' of the boats. 

Progression

In my next shoot, I plan to move on from 'Evidence of Ageing' onto rainy weather. This will include photos of rain droplets against surfaces and streaming down windows. These photos will display evidence of 'bad weather', and i will solely focus on the rain itself, like droplets, puddles etc. These are a few of the photos that i found that have influenced this shoot:
