Photography in a Day

Landscapes - Urban vs Nature

We were asked to take landscape pictures that show both man-made and natural parts of Crawley.
Playground


This a picture of the path leading to the playground. From this angle it shows that it has the grass and bushes on either side of the concrete path which is leading to the childs playground.


Social Documentary - Christmas Shopping

We were asked to take pictures of the busy crowds in Crawley.

Crowd


This is a picture of a fairly large crowd outside the shops so they can buy christmas presents.



Portrait

We were asked to take pictures of college students with the college as a background.
Car Park Roof
This is a picture of Nathan leaning on a rail with the college building in the back and from the angle you can see the sign on the side of the building.

Cindy Sherman produces portrait pictures some of which could be described as surreal.



Her work scares me a bit when it first comes on the screen but then it just looks weird.



Her work doesn't influence me because its quite weird and its quite scary.
