Using Lighting

These are images that I took with different lighting, such as flash kits on the camera.



This is the first image I took. I like this because against the black background it makes the colours stand out more. You can also see the details clearly because of the lighting.









I took this image using a red filter on the flash. This makes the picture more interesting and has tinted it red. It also makes the shadows stand out more which gives the picture a more sinister feel.














This picture is interesting because it is simple and only has one subject you can be drawn to so it doesn't have too much going on.

Photos taken with various lenses

For these pictures I have used a various selection of lenses depending on what I was hoping for with the image.

This is a selection of images that I took when I first started.


This picture is effective because you can see the silhouette of the tree in front of the sun, which makes the lighting look good. Where the tree is placed also adds interest to the picture, as it demonstrates the rule of thirds technique.













This image is effective because the lighting makes it stand out and the details all very visible.







I like these two pictures because they both are very detailed. The way that both the shells and the pine cones are placed makes it interesting as it only focuses properly on one, so the others are slightly blurred.




































Old and New




This picture shows a contrast between old and new. You can see the detail in each of the leaves and the lighting brings out certain parts.
