This image is by Jim Golden, I really like what he has done in this photograph because he has laid all of the locks out so that they are all visible, he has also made them fit into a square which could be quite difficult as the objects are not very square. He has used a lot of different coloured objects which makes the photo a lot more interesting than if it was just silver locks. In addition, the shapes are all different which means that rather than just glazing over the image, you are more inclined to focus on it to look at all the different locks.
This is my image, I really like this because you can't tell what it is from first glance, you have to focus on it a bit to work it out. I stood the screws on their heads so that the pointy bit was sticking up, I then took photographs from above, this was so that we could see the shadows, I also wanted to be able to see the different sizes from a new viewpoint.
I turned this image black and white because I wanted it to be simplified slightly, it previously looked a bit too busy as it had so many colours in it, and this with the shadowing, didn't work very well.
To compare, I think that the two images are both good, however, personally, I prefer my image, I think that Jim Golden's photograph is much larger scale than mine, which could work, however with my limited time scale in the exam, I don't want to risk it not working well.
Both of the images are technically very good, I think that Jim Golden wanted people to know what his image was of exactly, whereas I wanted it to be more abstract.
