Hill view

When resiting Matlock for the day i took my camera along , and when walking around matlock is surrounded by high hills and in them hills is some lovely big houses which some modern but mainly old full of character and the setting around them i thought would make all together a great picture .

 

 

 

The first 3 pictures came out completely out of focus however i did like the position of the picture and how much of the hills and houses you could see and the angle of the picture.

  After getting the camera into focus and changing the F5.6 to F7.5 i took the first picture all though i liked the position of the picture i wanted more of the front house into the picture and less of the trees behind but enough so that could still see the background.

After slightly moving down i got the picture which i was after more of the front house but also wanted the main object of the picture to be the middle bigger house but also have the background in the photograph as well overall i think the picture turned out well , if i was to make any changed editing wise after it would be to have a bit more light in the picture .But this could be altered later on in a editing program such as photoshop and lightroom. Furthermore if i was to go back i would concentrate more on the house in the middle and maybe try and have only that house in focus and the rest of the picture out of it .

Woodlands

 When choosing my own genre or subject for pictures i wanted to take some pictures in a woodlands area capturing the scenery with different angles and using the different natural lights.

 

 

 

The first couple of pictures i walked up so i was on high ground and able to look down into the woodlands i took these two pictures from slightly different angles in which captured different lights .The first picture is from more of a right angle and captures the sun light coming through the trees in the left off the picture i think this is really effective and works well as the right side of the picture is darker.

 

 The second picture i moved further forward and was stood more central doing this only a slight bit of sunlight in coming through on the left of the picture , because of the lack of light the picture would of been to dark so in order to add a Little i used flash when took the picture.

I also wanted to capture a picture looking upwards and seeing the height of the trees and the light beaming through them , after finding a spot i layed down and pointed the camera at a angle looking up ,i really like this picture and how the sun is not to over powering but effective enough to give light shadows onto parts of the trees.

 

I next wanted to experiment with focus in my pictures and also depth of filed in capturing some objects in the picture closer to the camera than others. I found a part of the forest which i thought this would work really well with having the branches at the for front of the picture and then the rocks in the background.

When i first took the picture the focus was completely out and instead of the leafs being in focus the whole picture was out of focus . After changing the F from F6.3 to F5.3 the focus was a lot better and worked really well with the next two  picture.
