    Task 1:

    paper

    Tasha Lowe
    Research
    With this task, I wanted to approach it from a different
    perspective. The task of photographing 'paper' can lead the
    mind to think in numerous places but mine went straight to
    fire and burning newspaper.
    After looking through some images, I was almost instantly
    drawn to the effect I would be able to create by using fire,
    however with capturing fire there were some necessary
    precautions I had to take;
    ◦ I would need to beware of the surroundings and do it in a
    very open space
    ◦ Have some sort of assistance or guidance
    ◦ Make sure to have a fire extinguisher or something to
    prevent any big fires
    SHOOT
    PLAN
    Image_9239
    I liked this image because
    it's very clear, has some of
    the writing on the
    newspaper in the image
    and shows the fire
    illuminating the paper.
    With this image, I was
    really drawn to the dark
    surrounding which is
    obstructed by the
    newspaper which is on fire
    which makes for
    an ominous effect. I also
    like the use of in between
    depth of field which allows
    the piece of newspaper on
    the right more in focus
    than the piece on the left
    side.
    Image_9143
    I chose this image because I liked
    how the background is blurred
    which forces the viewer to focus on
    what's in the foreground. The fire
    in this image isn't the clearest,
    however, the font and subtitle seen
    on the newspaper is clear and cam
    be read.
    I mainly really like the sunset in
    the background, this changes the
    feel of this image and gives it a
    warmer feel. I have also
    used compositional techniques in
    this image as the paper is coming
    from the top left-hand corner and
    into the frame.

    With this image, I like how the
    fire appears to be spreading
    across the paper. The colour
    tones in the image are very
    warm as the natural lighting of
    the fire highlights and
    brightens the surroundings.
    I also really like the
    composition of this image as
    my subject is not completely in
    frame but coming out from the
    left-hand side.
    Image_9219
    I was drawn to the amount of
    detail seen in this image. The
    camera setting used really
    captured the vibrancy of the
    flames. I also like how I managed
    to capture the flame coming out of
    the frame which reinforces the
    aggressiveness and fury of the
    flame.
    I like the warm tones created by
    the fire itself which is highlighting
    the newspaper and shadowing the
    areas not on fire which creates a
    nice, pleasant contrast
    Evaluation
    I personally really enjoyed this shoot, I enjoyed working with fire and changing a simple task and
    making it more exciting. This was fairly easy to execute and I will definitely try out this genre of
    photography again in the future. I feel like I followed my research and shoot plan effectively and
    composed some images that have come out in the way I intended them to.
    With that being said, I played around with different photography and compositional techniques
    in this shoot and with my images and got a feel for something new that I have not tried before. I
    don't think that I could have changed anything as the outcome came out exactly how I had
    envisioned, so I am rather content with this shoot.
    One thing I did in this shoot was take a lot of images, however, when looking through my contact
    sheets you can see the evalution of my images and the experimenting I did with my camera to see
    what worked best. There were a few images that I crossed which came out too over exposed, but
    th majority of them came out well and as planned such as the ones I chose.
