Form Work Diary

The first photograph I'm going to evaluate is the photograph of a building. This photograph has a very good angle and has been taken to show half of the building which makes this photograph look interesting. The photograph shows form very clear and is very noticeable to the viewer. The lighting is very good and was taken at the right time when the sun was shining. To improve this photograph I could of made the photograph closer to make form more obvious.

The second photograph I'm going to evaluate is the photograph of the path way and banister. This photograph shows form very well and the angle of the photograph shows depth as well which makes this photograph very captivating. The sharpness ad quality of the photograph is very clear. However to improve this photograph I would of taken the photograph lower to be at its level.

When I went out shooting the weather was lovely and bright and made it easier for me to take photographs of form. To improve and add to the shoot I would take more photographs on nature and plants.

Texture Work Diary

The first photograph I'm going to evaluate is the photograph of a green plant bush. This photograph was taken very close up to show the texture clearly and how detailed the texture is. As well as the texture to be identified to the viewer. Also the colours of this photograph are very bright and eye catching which creates the photograph to be at a high quality. The light in this photograph makes the texture stand out even more and creates nature to look beautiful. To improve this photograph I would of taken it extremely close up to show texture even more and focus on one part of the bush.

The second photograph I'm going to evaluate is
the extreme close up of the tree and its texture. This photograph has a light and dark side to it the light side really enhances the texture and I can see straight away that it has a rough and edgy feel to it. The photograph focuses on the texture and has no business in the background taking your eye of the photograph. To improve this photograph I would get all the tree in the light so that the whole texture is enhanced.

When I went out shooting texture the first attempt there wasn't much light out therefore texture in my photographs wasn't seen very well. How ever then I went out the second time and there was a lot of light and all my photographs came out showing texture very well. To improve my shoot I could of taken more shots that weren't hugely close up to give a range of angles in my contact sheet.

Image Bank- Texture


This photograph is of  bright blue wooden columns of wood which could be for a fence or bench. The photograph has been taken close up this is to allow the viewer to notice the huge detail and what texture this photograph is of. The texture used in this photograph is rough this is because the planks of wood have bumps and gaps in them and have shades of darker blue to show where the roughness has been increased by the weather. This material is known to be rough unless it has been made to be smooth.
This photograph is of a close up of a flower. This flower uses bright yellow colours and orange colours to give the texture more detail. Also the closeness has been used to make the viewer see the texture easier and clearer. The texture of this photograph is smooth on the petals and soft in the centre of the flower. Both these textures are very delicate and are shown as the material in the centre looks very fluffy and also in real like they are soft and the petals have a metalic look to them which make them look soft.
This photograph is of a cobbled wall. The colours of this photograph are very dark and duel as they are blacks and greys. This photograph is close up to show the deepness and detail of the texture. This photograph has the rouugh, stoney texture as the hardness of the photograph estblishes this. As well as this being a material i have seen and has been in the visual world.
This photograph is of the back of a sofa. This photograph of a piece of furnture is a fresh gold colour and has been taken close up to make the focus of the photograph to be the texture. The texture of this photograph is a cushiony smooth texture. I know this because this piece of furniture is in my every day life.
This photograph is of a person holding two ice creams. The person is blurred out to focus on the texture of the icecream. The colours of this photograh are bubble gum pink and brown for chocalote. The texture they contain are a smooth texture as the spirals of ice cream show this. As well as ice cream being a food i have eaten and is in most peoples every day life.
This photograph is of a roof of a house. This photograph has been take from an angle and close up to show the texture in detail. The colours of this photograph are rusty browns. The texture that has been used for this photograph are rough textures this is because the roof tiles look very worn out and this would suggest a rough texture where as if they were new the texture would be very smooth.
