This photograph was taken by Liam Frank-land and is a landscape photograph that shows the aspect of depth and scale. This photograph is a very influential photograph and the idea of decreasing the color to a faint black and white affect allows the bright red flowers to stand out hugely. However the photographer hasn't removed all the color in the landscape showing the beauty of the setting still. In addition this photograph has been taken at a slight low angle this is to enhance the height of the flowers to make them look a lot bigger in size than what they are. Where as in real life they would be very tiny to look at this is very effective as it brings a bold focus to the landscape which interests the viewers looking at this photograph more. Furthermore the aspect of depth of field has been used and the technique is shown as the depth of the landscape is blurred to look further than what it is this empathizes the aspect of scale in the landscape. As well as the main focus of the flowers in focus to create an eye catching affect to the photograph.The connotation of red is love this photograph expresses this as well as expressing the beauty of landscapes. Without the technique depth of field used to enhance the scale this photograph would show creativity and complexity. The idea in this landscape of a flower which is grown to its fullest and in contrast with this a half grown flower next to it allows this photograph to show an aspect of a life cycle of a flower which makes this photograph have more meaning to it then just a landscape. I especially like this photograph because of the use of the selective color and this is something that I have shown through out my portfolio on landscapes as I feel that photographs like this are very successful and gaining its viewers attention through the use of color.
of depth. This photograph was taken at Hyde park in London and was a section of a huge landscape. The reason why I chose to photograph this part of the landscape is because it allowed the textures, tones and depth to be highlighted more to show the beauty of landscapes and nature. The colours in this landscape are also a main aspect as the vibrant and striking tones of orange in the flower and in the distance showing depth of field are very bold and stand out hugely because they catch my eye instantly. The smooth and delicate texture of the flower in focus is seen in a lot of detail because of the sharpness of the picture. Furthermore this photograph was taken so that the flower is positioned at the right hand side of the photograph this allows the depth of the flowers to be more interesting as its not covering the whole of the photograph or in the centre showing a uniqueness to this photograph. The aspect of depth was taught to me at the beginning of this project and the technique that I learnt I showed here and I feel that this is my most successful and affective depth of field photograph I have taken. In this photograph the orange and green colours clash which makes this photograph even more appealing as well as these colours enhancing the beauty of flowers. By having only one selected flower in focus gives this photograph a main focus point which is where the eyes of the audience will be drawn to when they first take a look at this photograph.
Both these photographs have a connection because firstly they both have a main focus of a flower this is because both photographs reflect the beauty of nature and this is both shown with the technique depth of field. In addition the technique of depth of field that has been used in both photographs enhance the depth of the landscape and enhance the scale of the photograph as well. Also both photographs rely on the colours in the landscape to make the photograph interesting and creative to look at. This is because the bright and vibrant colours shown in the flowers in both photographs make the landscape more appealing to look at and create an eye catching picture. Lastly both photographs have slightly used the technique selective colour as both backgrounds are a very faint colour that allows the main focus of the flowers stand out as the bold colour is even more affective against duel colours.
