I have rather enjoyed this year at college. I think it has helped me develop my photography skills and take  them to the next level. Through out the year I have been given the chance to try things such as; Studio work, creative camera, drawing and self guided work. I think that this course helped  broaden  my understanding and taste in photography.
In particular one of my preferred units this year was drawing. Experimenting with different ways to create a interesting images from; working over the photographs on photoshop to drawing directly over them. I preferred this unit because I liked to draw it gave me a huge chance to be creative and different with what I did. If I would change anything about that unit, I probably would have like to create more i photographs.
I think my weakest unit this year was possible the first unit we did, portraiture. I think my work lacked individuality and my own personal touches to it. For that I am the only person to blame. If I could go back I think I would have done more research and tried more ideas.

MUSIC VIDEO STORY BOARD

This is one of my latest units. Which is pretty simple and one of the most fun actually. We had to pick a song, any song we like and then create a story board for a section of the song. I picked Biffy Cylro - Bubbles.
I think the idea itself of using bubbles can be tricky. cause they can be hard to capture clearly in a photograph. But I'm happy that I took the risk this time.

Studio

This wonderful little girl below is my niece Tori and my sister was kind enough to let me steal her (Not literally) to be one of my unit subjects. In this unit, I wanted to make her a young version of Alice in wonderland, mainly focusing on the part, where all the white roses are getting painted red. I'm pretty chuffed with my outcomes to say the least. Like most kids her age she can't keeps still really for more then a minute unless they are bribed with sweet things. The only thing I found particularly hard about this unit was when I had to set the studio up... I'm the type of person who would rather take photos outside rather then in a studio.

LEGO MEN!

Ah, I live to annoy my tutors sometimes, I think anyway... I'm not exactly a easy student when it comes to unit ideas... I ended up basically talking my tutor into allowing me to go up a ladder to take my first photograph! I'm the best at balance I can tell you that. This unit I scarcely remember anything, which is of course my fault entirely. Instead of telling you what my unit was, I can however tell you what my pictures are:
It's an adventure! A Lego friend adventure, in everyday surroundings (WELL, my surroundings that is)
I did actually enjoy taking photo's for this unit, lots of ideas and a few friends inputs made the work pass quickly.

Creative Camera Tech!

One of my projects not too long ago was creative camera tech, where we were shown how to think outside the box a bit more with our work, be more experimental and generally have fun. Below are a collection of photographs I took in Lincoln Cathedral, using the effect called zoom bust. I particularly like the effect it had on several of the stain glass windows.

(Washing Machine effect) Turing the camera on the side while the picture is being taken. I like the effect it had on this photograph, it makes the stain glass window look like a firework.

Sorry!

I've been forgetful lately ( more like the past couple of months), so... Perpare the flood gate for a load of updates comming this way.
