Shoot Seven - Work Record

Plans for the shoot & what I hope to achieve:

For this shoot, I intend to take a photograph of a book, I would like to try and do more of an abstract photograph, with the pages splayed out so that the shadows go in many different directions. I hope to achieve a good final shoot before the exam that will give me more ideas about what to do for the shoots.

What I actually achieved:

I ended up with a good shoot that worked really well, the shadows were very visible despite the pages being slim, I also took other pictures of the pages without any shadows.

ISO: 100

F/3.5

Shutter Speed: 1/10

This image is of the book pages spread out a lot, the shadows look quite pretty I think so I'm very happy with the picture, but I think that you can still definitely tell what this is.

The image didn't turn out as good as I hoped because the shadows weren't as long as they were meant to be.

ISO: 200

F/5.6

Shutter Speed: 1/10

This image is also of a book, I took it straight on so I could see the pages in front of me. I don't think that you can tell what this photograph is straight away so it's a little bit different from the rest of the photographs in the shoot.

What I'm going to do next:

I liked this shoot a lot, however I don't think I like it as much as some of my previous shoots so I probably won't use it in my exam. I think that it looks a little bit rushed and many of the images I took didn't turn out that good. Further, I think that some of the images are quite dark compared to the others as the pages are darker than the table, you can definitely see this from the difference between the first and the second.
