Personal project image bank

Personal project image bank





















































I chose the first half of the images of rural landscapes/areas because these photos are relevant to the photos that I will and have taken for my rural shoots. The majority of the photos that I have included in this image are of trees or woodland, that is because from the shoots that I am planning to do or have already done, are in rural environments. I think that these photos will give me some inspiration for different angles and styles to take my photos of trees in, as within my work I do want to develop the techniques I use in my shoots. Even though the photos are of trees the majority of them do show meaning and relevance to my project and what I want to convey throughout this project. So a lot of the trees that are shown in the photos above have in a way been somewhat destroyed, as the trees have been chopped down, broken, shaved, carved ect. Which is what I want to capture in my shoots, not just the beauty of the natural environment but also the destruction of the environment, as some photographers are criticized for only showing and capturing how peaceful and perfect the natural environments are. However these images contradict the beauty. 

The second half of these images in my image bank consist of photos go urban landscapes and areas that have been visibly destroyed, either by vandalism or just general wear over a long period of time. I chose these images because they are what I want to try and produce, however I recognize that I won't be able to capture images of buildings tat have been damaged as extremely as some of the photos I have chosen because the areas close to me like North London are not vandalized or destroyed to this extent. Although I chose these photos because of the general message that they convey, which is the destruction of urbanization. These photos have also been taken from a variety of different heights/perspectives too, so I think that this will help me when I start my urban shoots with capturing these buildings but from different angles not just a normal front view.
