DIP's by Rebecca


First DIP this one is to complying to the theme of industry and documentary. Both photographs were taken in Bradford , one was taken in the David hockney building the other was taken outside the old building across the street. The viewpoints on each image was pointed upwards as i believe this creates a unique effect on the photograph. Both images are using natural light as both shots were taken during the day. to improve the images i could re shoot later in the day so that the light in the second photo would be covering the entire object. To create a different kind of photo i could re shoot at night to have more of a dismal effect on the photo as the different light would change the look of the image. The image with the most central focus is the second photo as that has a object in the centre of the frame which grabs the viewers attention. On the first image there is no single object in the frame that stands out to the viewer, however as there is two  lines in the photo which allows the viewers eye move along the lines. Out of these photos i prefer the second one as it has more interesting item in the frame and this is what i want to do to my final images which will include an inanimate object. 
Again these were taken in Bradford however the first photo was taken on a road near the city park and the second photo was taken at a bus stop near the Alhambra. to improve the second image i would adjust the contrast, i believe a higher contrast would make the image better as i believe the image is slightly flat. Both of these photos have a central object with draws in the most focus of the audience of the photo. This set of images theme is travel as one photograph contains a mode of transport and the other photograph was taken at a bus stop. In this set the lighting is varied as on the first image there is two rays of light on the image and on the second photo there is a dull overtone as light is not directly shinning on either the object or the surrounding space. The image i prefer is the first one as lighting is used more effectively and there is more going on in this image. 

These were taken at locations that are very different to each other,as the first one was taken in city park and the other was taken in the library in the David hockney building. Both images has a main subject as the second photo has a large bookcase placed central in the frame.Both photos fit into the theme of documenting as one image is about a bookcase and the other photo is an image of a location which is a tourist attraction in Bradford , this is city park. Both photos uses natural light which lessens  the amount of harsh shadows which would be created if i were to use artificial light. However natural light does add a tint of grain to the photos which makes them look slightly flat. To change this i could higher the contrast to give the photo a lift, which would make the subjects more eye catching and appealing in the frame, it could also improve the effectiveness of the photo. Both images are mainly / mostly focusing on the subject which is what i want to achieve when i use a inanimate object however on the first photo i could re shoot to reduce the amount of foreground as with this amount there isn't much background for the audience to look upon.
