Nature

There is a clear link to the statement of intent to produce a series of images that reflect the changing seasons in South Derbyshire.  The course has run through Autumn into Winter.  The initial choice of images refect both through changes in nature as well as the colour pallete and quality of light.  A range of images from macro to landscape; varying lighting conditions; range of skills required to achieve the images chosen.

Built

The initial Statement of intent identified a focus on community buildings within South Derbyshire.  The available time, weather and opportunity has meant that this has been extended to include the city of Derby.


Demonstration of a range of techniques, inclding post production conversion to B & W.  I feel that there is a demonstrable link to the research that I have undertaken into architectural photography.
