this is my photographic evidence of my project of photograph on a theme

1. PHOTOGRAPHY OF LIFE
Luke Blackman

2. INTRODUCTION
I was told that I need to compile a catalogue of photos (ten
at minimum) and that my images had to fit into one of the
given categories.
The category I have chosen is ‘Life’.
In this powerpoint I will show the ways in which I went from
drawing boards to the finished image production.

3. MOOD BOARDS
• Before I could take my images, I had to create
mood boards to explore what I was looking to
create in my images.
• The following mood boards show different aspects of
life, including nature and living things.

4. MOOD BOARD WITH COLOURS
Like the different
colours and directions
Like the different bold
and shades of colours

5. MOOD BOARD WITH DEPTH OF
FIELD
Like the different
colours and
composures
Like the different fade
ins and outs

6. MOOD BOARD WITH MOVEMENT
Like the different the
movement of the
water
Like the fine lines in
the waters

7. MOOD BOARD WITH
COMPOSITION
Like the different
colours and
arrangements
Like the different
shades and angles

8. MOOD BOARD WITH TEXTURES
Like the different
colours and shades
Like the different
shapes and sizes of
texture. Looks very 3d

9. MOOD BOARD WITH LIGHT
I Like the different
colours and directions
I Like the different
arrangements of light

10. IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS
• Before I went out to take my photos I had to consider some important things.
These were :
• The location
• The area in which I would take photos – eg. Countryside or populted area
• If I need permission to photograph the chosen area or object
• What equipment I will need
• Aperture, shutter speed and exposure
• If I will use models in my photos
• Props
• Health and safety precautions – create a risk assessment

11. LANDSCAPE IN THE PAST
• Ansell Adams (1902 – 1984) was a landscape photographer taken photos of
nature national parks and other natural sites
This one (right) is of McDonald Lake at a
national park in America.
The source of the photo is form archives.gov

12. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS FOR
CONSIDERATION
• My teacher gave
us some questions
to answer to show
how will we
overcome these
areas in order to
do photography.

13. CHOSEN IMAGES 1
Iso 100, resolution = 180 Pixels Per Inch,
exposure = 1/100 seconds, setting =
landscape mode, F4.7 aperture
Iso 100, resolution = 180 Pixels Per Inch,
exposure = 1/320 seconds, setting =
landscape mode, F16 aperture

14. CHOSEN IMAGES 2
Iso 400, resolution = 180 Pixels Per Inch,
exposure = 1/60 seconds, setting = automatic
mode, F5.8 aperture
Iso 100, resolution = 180 Pixels Per Inch,
exposure = 1/800 seconds, setting =
landscape mode, F5.8 aperture

15. CHOSEN IMAGES 3
ISO 100, resolution = 180 Pixels Per Inch,
exposure = 1/180 seconds, setting =
landscape mode, F9 aperture
Iso 100, resolution = 180 Pixels Per Inch,
exposure = 1/125 seconds, setting = portriat
mode, F3.3 aperture

16. CHOSEN IMAGES 4
Iso 100, resolution = 180 Pixels Per Inch,
exposure = 1/500 seconds, setting =
landscape mode, F3.1 aperture
Iso 100, resolution = 180 Pixels Per Inch,
exposure = 1/800 seconds, setting =
Landscape mode, F9 aperture

17. CHOSEN IMAGES 5
Iso 100, resolution = 180 Pixels Per Inch,
exposure = 1/1000 seconds, setting =
landscape mode, F3.1 aperture
Iso 100, resolution = 180 Pixels Per Inch,
exposure = 1/640 seconds, setting = Normal
mode, F9 aperture

18. CONTACT SHEET
Due to the size limitations my client would be unable to steal the
photos easily. If they did take the photos, the quality would be
very low anyway meaning they would still need to purchase the
original photos from me.
I created a contact
sheet in Photoshop so
that my client ( if I
had one) can view
the photos and
choose the ones they
would want. original
photos from me.

19. NO1 PHOTOGRAPH
This is my chosen photograph

20. RESEARCH TO PRINTING
• Next, I had to find a photograph printing firm to make a professional
photograph printed on professional paper.
• The choices of paper are matte and glossy, I have chosen matte because
my image is very bright and glossy paper might overdo it.
