Together Sam, Stephen and I decided to do our project on how the lighting in an image can change a photo. We decided to show the difference between natural and artificial light. We needed to add a subject to the photo so we chose something natural like an apple and artifical object like a toy but then at the end decided to use water as it is a good reflector for light and we can represent it in different ways. The content of the photograph would be the light, background, object and everything inbetween. For my photo in particular i used a water bottle with the light coming through it and reflecting in different ways, this was effective as it made the bottle almost glow. The background was grass which made the water bottle stand out but also made it natural. The form of the object is transparent flimsy bottle but when filled with water it becomes a stronger builded object that cannot be broke down. The bottle is artifical however the water inside is natural which builds a contrast inbetween the two. Also when doing the boys photo's we had to try multiple times to get the effect we wanted in the end. Sam, Stephen and I worked well together as we can motivate each other and give each other advice. I feel the project went well with a few minors such as people in backgrounds and finding the exact space we wanted within the time limit we had. After completeing our photos and uploading them onto a presentation we went round to ask some of our audience's oppinions. They said they didnt really understand them untill after we told them the context. They then said before we told them more about it they liked Sam's best as it had an interesting texture, after the context was explained they started to change their minds. If we had more time we would have liked to get a few more opinions on how to improve them to appeal to the auidence more but i feel we did well with what was given to us.
