Panning shots

a panning shot is when the photographer can show movement in a photo without having to look to close 

   This is made by moving the camera while on a slow shutter speed this records everything that is in the line of sight of the camera within the time of the shutter

Burley Forest

 Burly wood
These photos I took were in Burly wood just outside Bransgore.


This I have photo-shopped to show a definite sinester look and atmosphere to them by dulling down the vibrance and brightness I even used the magic wand tool in some places to show shadows in the picture 

                                                          In this photograph it is even more dark than the rest not phisicaly but mentally 
     By using this abandoned rope swing in the picture it represents a nouse for hanging people making it a very sinister picture.

photoshop

this picture was put together by me 

    for this I used photography from the famous artists like: Fox Tabolt, Man Ray and Daguerre 

These are the steps I used to put together this collage on Photoshop      

1. first I took the photos I wanted making sure there were the right size for a good resolution 

2. Then shrinking the photos to the size I wanted

3. with the photos in the frame I switched the layer to give the impression that in was in the frame therefore adding form. i also changed the layers on the wall paper so it looked like it was spread on the brick wall (using the lasso tool and then deleting what I selected to give the ripped effect).

4. After I used the FX tool to make shadows. This shows that there is light coming from the top right corner of the picture this too adds form to the picture making it look like the picture frame is closer than the wall to the person looking at the picture.

man ray

man ray

man ray was a famous artist (August 27, 1890–November 18, 1976) In 1915, Man Ray had his first one-man show of paintings and drawings. 

While living in New York  with his friend Marcel Duchamp, he formed the branch of the Dada movement, which began in Europe as a rejection of traditional art. He co-founded the group of modern artists called Others.

After a few unsuccessful experiments, and notably after the publication of a unique issue of New York Dada in 1920, Man Ray stated, "Dada cannot live in New York", and in 1921 he went to live and work in the Montparnasse quarter of Paris, France during the era of great creativity. There he fell in love with famous French singer, Kiki (Alice Prin), often referred to as "Kiki de Montparnasse", who later became one of his favorite photographic models.

For the next 20 years in Montparnasse, Man Ray revolutionized the art of photography. Great artists of the day such as James Joyce, Gertrude Stein, and Jean Cocteau posed for his camera.

With Jean Arp, Max Ernst, André Masson, Joan Miró, and Pablo Picasso, Man Ray was represented in the first Surrealist exhibition at the Gallerie Pierre in Paris in 1925.

In 1934, Surrealist artist Méret Oppenheim, known for her fur-covered tea cup, posed for Man Ray in what became a well-known series of photographs depicting Oppenheim nude, standing next to a printing press.

Together with Surrealist photographer Lee Miller—his lover and photography assistant at the time—Man Ray invented the photographic technique of solarization. He also created a technique using photograms he called rayographs.

Man Ray also directed a number of influential avant-garde short films, such as Le Retour à la Raison (2 mins, 1923); Emak-Bakia (16 mins, 1926); L'Étoile de Mer (15 mins, 1928); and Les Mystéres du Château du Dé (20 mins, 1929).

Later in life, Man Ray returned to the United States, where he lived in Los Angeles, California for a few years. However, he called Montparnasse home and he returned there, where he died. He was interred in the Cimetière du Montparnasse, Paris. His epitaph reads: Unconcerned, but not indifferent.

The 'pinhole process' and developing

A pinhole camera is basicly a light tight box that has a small hole in it letting only a small amount of light in. when putting the photograph paper into the camera be very careful because if it comes into contact with light it will start 'recording' the image of what ever is facing the camera.When you want to take the picture take your hand off the pinhole to capture the image. Next you have to develop your picture so you must make sure your in a dark room and then put the photo in each of the chemicals and then leave it to dry

Great Artists

Dauguerre
A famous French artist born in 1787 in later work he had competition with William fox Tabolt
   He made experiments and later partnered with niepce who later died in 1833 so  tabolt had to carry on without him










William fox Tabolt

William Henry Fox Talbot born in11 February 1800 and died on the 17 September 1877 was a British inventor and a . He was the inventor of calotype process, the process to make  photo processes of the 19th and 20th centuries. He was also a noted photographer who made major contributions to the development of photography as an artistic medium. His work in the 1840s on photo-mechanical reproduction led to the creation of the photoglyphic engraving process, the precursor to photographs. Talbot is also remembered as the holder of a patent which, some say, affected the early development of commercial photography in Britain.

Talbot was known by his second name Henry, rather than William. It is commonly assumed that "Fox Talbot" is an unhyphenated double-barrelled surname. However, Fox was his mother's maiden name and was not passed on to his children. 

edward muybridge

Edward Muybridge was born at Kingston-on-Thames, England on April 9, 1830. He moved to the america arriving in San Francisco in 1855, where he started a career as a publisher's agent and bookseller. He left San Francisco at the end of the 1850s, and after a stagecoach accident in which he received severe head injuries, returned to England for a few years.

He reappeared in San Francisco in 1866 and rapidly became successful in photography, focusing principally on landscape and architectural subjects, although is business cards also advertised his services for portraiture.

Niépce took what is believed to be the world’s first photogravure etching, in 1822, of an engraving of Pope Pius VII, but the original was later destroyed when he attempted to duplicate it. 

 Niépce did not have a steady enough hand to trace the inverted images created by the ,camera obscura as was popular in his day, so he looked for a way to capture an image permanently. He experimented with lithiography , which led him in his attempt to take a photograph using a camera obscura. Niépce also experimented with silver chloride  , which darkens when exposed to light, but eventually looked to binutmen, which he used in his first successful attempt at capturing nature photographically. He dissolved bitumen in , a lavender oil solvent often used in varnishes , and coated the sheet of pewter with this light capturing mixture. He placed the sheet inside a camera obscura to capture the picture, and eight hours later removed it and washed it with lavender oil to remove the unexposed bitumen.

He began experimenting to set optical images in 1793. Some of his early experiments made images, but they faded very fast. Letters to his sister-in-law around 1816 indicate that he found a way to fix images on paper, but not prevent them from deterioration in light. The earliest known, surviving example of a Niépce photograph (or any other photograph) was created in 1825. Niépce called his process Heliophotography, which literally means "sun writing". Nevertheless, semiologist Roland Barthes, in a Spanish edition of his book "La chambre claire", "La cámara lúcida" (Paidós, Barcelona,1989) shows a picture from 1822, "Table ready", a foggy photo of a table set to be used for a meal.

Focusing and sharpness

Focus
depending on how far or close an object is from the camera when the photo is taken it will be blurred or sharp sharp-a medium distance. Blurred- close this has certain effects that can can be manipulated to the photographers advantage using a lens.

shutter speed and aperture

Shutter speed

In  cameras, the  shutter speed is the time that the shutter is open when taking a photograph. Along with the aperture of the lens, it determines the amount of light that reaches the film or sensor the exposure is measured in units of exposure, sometimes called stops, representing a halving or doubling of the exposure.

In addition to its effect on exposure, the shutter speed changes the way movement looks in the picture. Very short shutter speeds can be used to freeze fast-moving subjects, for example at sporting events. Very long shutter speeds are used to intentionally blur a moving subject for artistic effect. Short exposure times are sometimes called "fast", and long exposure times "slow"Adjustment to the aperture controls the depth of field, the distance range over which objects are acceptably sharp; such adjustments need to be compensated by changes in the shutter speed.

Aperture
An aperture is a hole or an opening where light travels. The aperture determines how light the admitted rays are which is of great importance for the appearance at the image plane. If an aperture is small, then highly light rays are admitted meaning the focus at the image plane. If an aperture is wide, then dark rays are admitted, resulting in a sharp focus only for rays with a certain focal length. This means that a wide aperture results in an image that is sharp around what the lens is focusing on and blurred if not. The aperture also shows how many of the incoming light is actually admitted and thus how much light reaches the image plane (the narrower the aperture, the darker the image for a given exposure time).

Martin Parr

Parr began work as a photographer and has taught photography  from the mid-1970s. He was first recognised for his black-and-white photography in the north of England, but switched to colour photography in 1984. The resulting work, Last Resort: Photographs of New Brighton, was published in 1986. Since 1994, Parr has been a member of magnum photos Recent work has included work with design Paul Smith in Iford, capturing people wearing Smith's Autumn/Winter 2007 collection In 2008, he was made an Honorary Doctor of Arts , in recognition for his ongoing contribution to photography.










I think this photo shows how normal objects are accepted by people but put some different ones together can completely change what people think.
