The focus of this photo is the street, the river and buildings as a whole. This photo includes punts, trees, buildings and the sky. The foreground is the punts as they are the closest to the camera. The punts stand out to proportion to everything else, due to the colour difference. The punts are shiny, made of wood and have a oaky orange colour. 

I used rule of thirds as there are lots of different things to focus on in this photo. As the sky is towards the top, the streets and buildings are centralised and the punts are towards the bottom.

The shot was taken still, the exposure is set at even so that everything is bright all round, trying to keep shadows underneath the trees noticeable.


In this photo, you can see a brick style building layout on all the buildings. This style is the same for the ground as the ground is brick like. This gives a street feel to the picture. The main focus of this image isn't direct, but the outside of the restaurant where the green chairs are, is the most eye catching in this photo. The colours stand out, as most of the photo is brick and light maroon colour, therefore making the outside restaurant stand out.

I didn't use rule of thirds in this photo, as there was no main focus and my intention for this photograph was to have a background. This is different from most of my photos as this does not have a certain focus or point to look at.

The photo was taken at a shaked position. All of the other photos were still, so a slight shake of the camera was used to create variety. The photo was taken at an overexposed point, this was to bring out the brick walls vibrance and saturation, whilst the green and ground look underexposed and gray.



This photo is based on a street styled background with no main focus. The photo has a mix of dark and light. Towards the side of the shops its darker, however towards the plants and away from the shops the photo is darker. The centre of the image is the pillar closest to the camera, which is in focus. however, everything else around the image is blurred.

I used rule of thirds in this photo at all parts. The plants are on the left, the pillars are in the centre and the shops are on the right, making sure that the attention isn't in one place specifically. I wanted as much of the plant area to be in frame without any background/wall, as it ruins the nature look and the overall effect.

The photo was taken at still and steady, the exposure of the picture is even. This was so that the difference between daylight and shadows could be noticed even more.


The main focus of this photo is the chairs and tables. This is because the chairs and tables look like they are made of wood giving a shiny look, which is more eye catching then a casual brick wall.
This photo has a different feel too the others. This is due to the foreground looking restaurant and cafe like, however the brick wall behind the chairs give that street feel.

I used the rule of thirds by having the chairs in the centre and the edges. However the first chair in frame is half cut off, as I wanted to include as much of the brick wall as I could. I took the picture at an angle where you can see almost all of the chairs and tables, but also include a background. The closer the chairs and tables were to the wall the darker they got, giving a natural shadow look.

The photo was taken still and the exposure is even so that you can see what part of the image are brighter and darker naturally. Towards the left of the photo it began to get brighter, however towards the right of the photo it started to get darker.


The main focus of this photo would expected to be the signs of the cafe, due to the difference in brightness throughout the picture. Everywhere around the photo is normal, so its natural to see. However the main focus (the sign) was brightened, making it more eye catching. I did this, as I took another photo similar to this but the sign and shop name was the same exposure as the rest of the image, which is why I made the main focus different to the rest.

This photo relates the previous one, but this shows the name of the cafe whereas the photo before just showed the chairs and tables.



This photo's main image is the entrance of the shop. This is due to the contrast in colours, as the bottom of the photo is white, however the shop itself is light blue with parts turquoise. This shows that the background has a mix, as there is no certain and specific main focus.

I didn't include the model in this image as I wanted to have a street feel from a different view and perspective. This could be seen from the models view in first person. I didn't use the rule of thirds method in this picture, as there was no specific element or focus.

The shot is overexposed, as the whole image has no specific foreground or background so I connected them in a way, in which was completed by having the same brightness on the outside of the entrance, however I added shadows and natural darkness to the entrance, to bring a small amount more attention to the entrance.


The main focus in this photo is the model's facial expressions. The focus is also to show a persons lifestyle. This brings the attention to the foreground and the model's side profile, this meant that the background was blurred, showing that the main image is more important.

The model is slanted on the wall to the edge of the camera, facing away from the camera with his phone in his hands. The photo is framed so that you cant see below his arms and hips, this was so that the model's expressions could easily be seen and conveyed.
The shot is still and the exposure is slightly darkened. 

However, even though the main image is darker and consists of more shadows, the background being brighter makes the darkened main image stand out.


The main focus of this photo is the graffiti next to the model. This is because the model isn't in centred, but also the camera fit more of the graffiti then the model. I used this method as most of my photographs had the model as the main image.

The model is facing forward towards the camera with his arms to his side. The photo cuts below his waist so that the graffiti is in line with the model. I used the rule of thirds in a way, by having the model and the graffiti in the centre the rule of thirds is focused for the centre only. The shot is exposed the same in every part of the pic, with a neutral setting.


The main focus of this photo is university behind the model. This changes from my other photos, as this time instead of the foreground as the main image, we have the background as the main image and attention. Even though its just a plain coloured background its more appealing as the background has a bigger subject to the model. 

To bring the attention away from the model, I cut off the models body and legs, so that the university to take up more of the image. This photo has a darker tone and feel. The model has more shadows to the university, but overall the exposure is darker then normal. 

This shot was taken at an angle, however its still. I didn't use rule of thirds specifically in this photograph as the model wasn't in much of the frame and not the whole building was in frame.


The models body from behind is the focus of this picture. The model is in the centre at a medium range distance, so its not the main foreground. This gives an effect making the model blend in with the background in a sense.

The models colourful top stands out and helps bring attention to the whole model as the background consists of plain colours. Creating an unbalanced theme and tone. The shot is steady and still, however the movement of the model isn't still as he is walking while the picture was taken. The photo is slightly overexposed. This is due to the background being mostly white. 

I felt that for the model to stand out in any way then the photo had to be overexposed even at the slightest.
