On Sunday 9th March 2014, I went to Reddish Vale Country Park to take some photos for this task since it was a nice sunny day. I focused on getting images that linked with the 4 themes; Heavy, Space, Time and Glass. This shoot really helped me focus into Photography more and I learnt how to use the different settings on the camera in my own way (with a bit of help from my Dad about depth of field!) and own time. I had time to carefully think about what photos I could take, how I could take them, what of and how they would link to the chosen theme. I really enjoyed taking these images and this really helped me with research into the four themes, as I feel that I have a better creative understanding of the theme.

I used a Canon 30D (on manual settings and manual focus, and my sister (who wanted to copy what I was doing!) used a Canon Powershot SX500.

Heavy
For this image, I wanted to show someone walking up steps from the steps point of view. I wanted to get as close to the steps as possible so you could see the detail of how they were formed, making this image abstract. I think that this represents heavy as it is showing heavy footsteps and also heavy concrete from the steps and bars that is holding it all together. I think the main challenge I faced when trying to capture this image was trying to get as close to the steps as possible and have the framing right to capture the steps, the sky and trees and Carlton. I also wanted to capture a vanishing point from the steps so trying to get all of these points in was quite hard but I think that the image turned out quite well and how I wanted it to be. I think the lines of the steps makes this image abstract and the point of view from where I shot it at, as I could've just shot the steps from far away to make it more of a landscape, but I shot this image from an usual point of view instead.
