Aquarium/London Photos

Figure 1

The photographs that you see here are ones that I have taken when I went up to London and to the aquarium. I also tried to relate them to the topic of light and dark as this is what I was thinking of when I took them.


My favourite photo is Figure 1, with the starfish attached to a ball, what I like most about this image is the colours and how around the framing/edge of the photo is dark so all your focus is on the brightest area of the picture (the starfish). I think the colours look very warm as they are mainly orange, therefore this contrasts with the darkness of the edge of the image.





 

This image of the 'merry go round' is another of my favourite photographs, I like it because of the colours and how the brightness and boldness of them contrasts with the darkness of the sky and its surroundings. I also like how I have captured it clearly as it was moving which was one of the struggles I had when trying to take photos of it.

Overall, I like this selection of images as I think they each show something different for example some show a use of a shallow depth of field whereas other show a wide depth of field, I think I could improve my photos by exploring a wider variety of different angles and perspectives.
