Whats in a picture?

Ok so two pictures of an Ariel Atom in action. What one do you think shows the most action?

The top one you get the action from Clarkson's mouth the bottom one uses the blur of the wheels and the background. What one shows the most action in your view?

Does the distortion on Clarkson's face give you a more personal impression of speed and action Vs the impersonal view of the helmeted driver?

Does the fact that in the bottom picture you can see the car as a whole rather than the close up of Clarkson's face in the top picture allow you to feel more of sense of movement?

Lemme know and we'll see how many think that the top picture gives more sense of speed and action and how many the bottom picture!

Picture series ideas...

Any ideas on a series of pics that you would like to see? I am thinking that a series of pictures showing decay and urban crumbling could be nice!? Urban Decay...what do you think I should show? Litter, Graffiti, Boarded up shops and houses maybe just Rust and Grime? Let me know and I will try and find it for ya!

What do you want a photograph to say about you? That you are artistic? That you are technically minded? That you are good with you hands? That you are a caring family person?

Let me know what emotion or message you like or need your pictures to contain.

Seen a picture that appeals to you on some level? Jot down the photographers name and drop me a line to let me know! I always love finding new photographers and looking at their work.

We all take pictures but its what the picture is thats always different!

Hands

Hands. What we do with them...almost everything. How we hold them when we are having a picture taken..Nobody ever knows what to do with heir hands. Send me an email or leave a comment and let me know what you do with your hands when having a picture taken! Me I use my hands to focus the camera and operate the shutter release...I am on the other side of the picture!

Ghost In Mirrors

Random shot from a photoshoot I did with a local band. They have just released their first album ( Big thumbs up from me! ) and they needed some new pics. I loved working with them as they all had their own ideas about the way that they wanted to look. I would love to do more photoshoots with bands and groups. Anyone looking for a photographer? If you are hit me up!

Ok head start time!

Meant to be doing this in the HND class next week but hey why wait!
