Day 28 - 26/2/12

Day 27 - 25/2/12


- When walking around, the sofa next to the bin caught my eye. I found it quite amusing the way the chair has been carefully left there like there would be someone sitting on it. 

Day 26 - 24/2/12



- I found a car on its own behind a building and the contrast of the colours attracted my eye. 

Day 25 - 23/2/12

- Poker night...the poker chips! 

Day 20 - 18/2/12

- Waiting for a bus in the freezing cold outside a pub. Instead of getting a picture of the actual pub, I wanted to get a photograph of the sign of the pub and the rest of the street. 

Day 19 - 17/2/12

- A very rainy day! I wanted to capture the reflection from the rain and also a bit of the sun within the reflection. 

Day 18 - 16/2/12

- Lots of work in the mac today! 
I wanted to capture the lights from the keyboard to add an effect to the photograph as a whole.

Walker Evans



Bruce Gilden




Stephen Shore

1-8 Yuma 





William Eggleston

This is the work from William Eggleston from the collection of "Los Alamos". I like the variety of photography that Eggleston produces that covers the 'everyday photography'.






  

Day 13 - 11/2/12

- So this is a memory that the majority of people may have but it was in particular of a friend which he had the game in his friend at uni. He said that it brought back memories as being a child where he played it all the time. 
I wanted to capture the game in an interesting angle getting a wide depth of field with the bright colours. 

Day 12 - 10/2/12


- This is a Swarovski bracelet that means a lot and brings memories to a friend. She received the bracelet from her sister for her 16th birthday.
To take this photograph I used a flash in order to bring out the colours from the bracelet and also the shine. 

Day 11 - 9/2/12


- I asked a friend about a something she was given that gave her memories that was close to her and she showed me this teddy which she received for her birthday when she was younger.
I decided to not edit this photograph in any way because I wanted to show the different colours within the photograph and also the patterns.

Day 10 - 8/2/12

- I asked my flat mate one way she keeps memories and she replied with having photo albums and a book in where her friends gave her as her 18th birthday present, where all of them wrote her a message about a memory they shared together.

Day 9 - 7/2/12

- This is a photograph of my board in my room where I had a bunch of photographs that mean something to me. I have also kept notes and accessories that all have a story behind it. 
I also changed the photograph to black and white. 

Day 8 - 6/2/12

- So when thinking about how I would start this theme, I realised I had a memory in front of me. A photograph in a frame of me and my sister when we were little kids. 
I decided to manipulate the photograph by changing it to black and white to have the main focus on the photograph rather than the colours. 

New Theme! - "Memory"!

So I was assigned a new theme which is now "memory". I decided with this theme I wanted to show ways in which someone may store a memory they have cherished or something that means a lot to them. 

Day 7 - 5/2/12

Eugene Atget



Humphrey Spender

 - Street Life 




- Traffic Offence - Police taking notes

Day 6 - 4/2/12



- Too cold to go outside, very icy! 
Experimenting with the angle and depth of field, I wanted to show the low temperature in one frame. 

Day 5 - 3/2/12

- Laundry day!
Playing around with the angle, I wanted to show the laundrette without being inside the room. 

Day 4 - 2/2/12


Day 3 - 1/2/12



- First day of nice weather for a while. 
I wanted to be able to show the nice weather during sunset so I can show the variety of colours taking into consideration the composition. 

Day 2 - 31/1/12



- Whiskey & rum, ready for the night out! 
With the drinks that I took, I wanted to show a dramatic look of the bottle therefore I wanted to have a dramatic lighting with an angle showing the bottles but without exposing the whole bottle. 

Day 1 - 30/1/12




- When walking around, the orange peel attracted me by colour. 








For the first week I have decided to take photographs of something that has happened during my day or that has been involved throughout my day.
