Shape Work Diary

Description of the shoot:
For shape I found my favorite pictures were ones that I took of things that curved edges so they curved around the image. I found a lot of these kind of images outside in buildings and in objects that had been placed together to create the curve.

Image I liked:

I really liked the layout of this image as the building slightly curved outwards. I like how this gives the image some dimension as it appears that depth has been added to the picture as the building has been pushed back. I also like the top edge of the picture because of the way the top of the building appears to be quite straight and the horizon of the town peers above the edge of the building. I like how even though there is this straight image the inside of the building shows how the building curves.


Progression and image I disliked:

I photographed this image as I liked the effect it gave because of the different colours and sections that create a complex pattern. However I don't think it's very suitable for the topic of shape. This is because it's more of a pattern as all the sections are separate and there isn't one clear and defined shape. Therefore I think if I had a chance to re do this task again, to improve it I would focus on getting clear and more simple shapes that are defines with an object and a background.

Images from the internet:

This is an example of an image that I found on the internet of a curved building in a portrait view taken from a low down angle. I like how the image almost follows the building round and it travels upwards which gives the image direction. I think this has a similar idea to the image that I took of the curved building above.
