FINAL IMAGES - CITYSCAPE

Location photography covers a wide range of disciplines – from the captured image of a fleeting moment using existing light to the highly structured and preconceived advertising image using introduced light.

While ago I went to London hopping to do some practise in night photography. Unfortunately I wasn’t too successful in that and in order to present at least some of my work I made just  images as a fragments from my weekend in there which I will be presenting as my second theme in Location photography.

All pictures will be printed in this year’s calendar issue format, making nice flashback and giving different look to City of London captured by me.

 

 

 

 

• SETUP LOCATION: City of London.

• LIGHTING: Natural light, araound midday and evening.
  

• LENS: WIDE ANGLE LENS  KIT LENS Nikon 18-55mm VR lens; TELEPHOTO Tamron AF 70-300mm lens.

• CAMERA SETTINGS: I use Manual exposure mode, to get full control over Shutter speed and Aperture.

• ACCESSORIES: Tripod Velbon DF-50.

FINAL IMAGES - LANDSCAPE

I’m glad to present you with my final Landscape images regarding my Assignment 307 Location Photography (Theme I).

One of the most important parts of capturing a good landscape image is understanding quality of light…There are many terms to define the various qualities of light, such as soft or diffused light, hard light and so on, but the purpose of landscape photography – the most important part is knowing how the light interacts with the landscape at certain times a day.

For my first location I choose sea…who can blame me as its everyone`s photographers favourite subject. As I was telling you before I had a chance for two weekends went down to Cornwall, the most amazing places where I ever had been searching for best golden hour scenes – as the most part, the best time to photograph a landscape is just before sun rises and right before sun sets.

So going through all my hundred’s and hundred’s images I manage to get down to the most representable 22… from was even harder to choose final 10, as all 22 will be presented as a slide show.

 

 

• SETUP LOCATION: Lizard Point to Lands’ End via Porthleven. Right by the edge of England most southern and western points.

• LIGHTING: Early mornings and late afternoons – evenings, using all the best light of Magic hour.

• LENS: WIDE ANGLE LENS Tamron’s SP AF 10-24mm F3.5-4.5 Di ; KIT LENS Nikon 18-55mm VR lens; TELEPHOTO Tamron AF 70-300mm lens.

• CAMERA SETTINGS: I use Manual exposure mode, to get full control over Shutter speed and Aperture. Early mornings and evenings were captured using Bulb setting.

• ACCESSORIES: Tripod Velbon DF-50 and various Cokin filters.

Final 10 descriptions will comes in the very end of the course together with theme II images.

Photo imaging equipment and materials (205)

Introduction

This assignment is based on opportunity to demonstrate evidence of the use of a range of materials supported by efficient operating of photo-imaging equipment, producing a written account for a set of thematic images captured by me.

 

 

I’m still working with same sort of equipment as I was on Level 2 - My Nikon D3000 camera – kit lens, Tamron zoom lens and also same tripod. 

But even so - I have some upgrade in my photo bag - as recently I become  an owner of wonderful wide angle lens what cost me more than my camera, - Tamron SP 10-24mm. I will make separate post for it as also for my new Cokin Sunset filter and Cokin Polarizing filter.

 

As I don’t want to repeat myself this time in assignment I`ll be trying to pay more attention for my new improvements only and what kind of advantage’s and disadvantage’s I found to using them.
