Work Diary

The first photograph i am evaluating is the edit of the converse. This edit shows blurring very clear and is very interesting to look at as it shows an illuson of double the converse. The colours are very clear and sharp but to improve this edit i would of made this photograph more blury to make it more intrieging to look at. And to make it clear to any viewers that this is the formal element of blur.

The second Photograph i am evaluating is the book edit. This photograph is very blurry and the as i moved my camrea in one direction there is a swift blur affect that travels to the left. This photograph contains a bright blue that is very eye catching. This photograph didnt come out the way i would of liked it to as the photograph looked extrmely unclear to improve this is wouldnt of moved the camrea as fast and as much to make the blur less intense.

When i went out to take photos for blur the weather again was very dull and raining so i shot most of my photographs inside one room. To develop my photographs i would of taken more in different rooms to get different affects and colours in the blur.
