Example of Action Photography


Dr Harold Edgerton - Densmore Shute Bends the Shaft, 1938


This is an image by Harold Edgerton and it is a good example of a photograph which uses action. This type of photograph was revolutionary at the time because the use of layers in the image had never been done before. The photograph shows a man playing golf and follows the swing he takes to hit the ball. I like this photograph because unlike other photographs it doesn't show just one moment in time it shows what has happened over a period of a few seconds. The spiral shape created in this image is very interesting and draws the audiences attetion towards the image.

Example of Good Composition



This image is an example of good composition, the rule of thirds has been used and so the focal point is on one of the four intersecting points created when you divide the camera's viewfinder into nine equal-sized sections using two horizontal and two vertical lines. The focal point in this image is the tree which is located to the right of the image, automatically drawing the audience to that part of the image.

Introduction

My name is Cassie Green and i am studying GCSE photography in Kenton School. I have been doing this course for a year so far and I have made this blog as a place to upload and share my photographs. I am currently working on an environment project , looking at different photographers and the style of their photographs to get ideas and then use those ideas to create my own work. During this project I will be able to discover a wide range of different genres including: Portraiture; Landscape; Still Life; Narratives; Documentry and Animation.
