Some landscapes possibly for my folio?










Question

If you were asked to do a travel shoot what would you be expected to shoot?

It all depends lon what company you are shooting for and what they have asked you to do? it could be anything from landscapes to people portraits, depending on what the client wants.

Question - What do you like in a landscape photographtoadress

A good landscape needs to address some of these examples

1 - Have mood or emotion
2 - Great colours and tones


3 - Simplicity


4 - Composition, textures and patterns




Good good techniques to shooting a landscape is to have just one focal point and to be simplistic don't make your photo to crowded or complicated.

Church Interiors

A task to see how different white balances react under lighting conditions at St johns Church.

Task 1 - A fully corrected overall view including ceiling.


Task 2 - Corrected view using photoshop
As you can see because of the 10mm lens i was using the distortion was overwhelming and correcting it was almost impossible and looks terrible.


Task 3 - Detail shot using a auto White Balance

This was way to warm


Task 4 - Corrected using white card

This i believe had the best colour outcome.


Task 5 - Corrected using a grey card

This had a bit of a green ting to it and i dont think it was working very well


Task 6 - Corrected using colour meter

I found this didn't work as well as it should have, it kept giving me many different reading that were very different.


Task 7 - Corrected using an expo disk

This one was a bit warm and has a very muggy green ting to it.



Overall I would defiantly use the white card over all the other ways to correct the colour and now i am going out to buy a white card.

Question - What would I like to learn

I would really like to learn more lighting techniques and more about environmental portraits as i have found it very hard shooting our portraits or our final folio. I feel this this is a very week point in my photography. I would also like to learn more about landscape as i feel i can improve in this alot.
