Studio Contrast Work Diary 2


Work Diary


I believe that i had a much better session than last time, I managed to get a longer time taking photos and i came up with much more imaginative ideas and all round better photos. i found it a lot easier this this as I was able to tie more photos and take the skills from the 2 location and previous studio shots, although i occasionally struggled with ideas overall it was a much better session.

This photo uses contrast between the items of clothing, the fluffy jumper and the thin cardigan, there is clear contrast in the colour as well as the fabrics. I do really like the way  neither person takes up more room then the other in this photo both are either side of each other. 


There is a lot of contrast in this photo, from height, size, clothing and colour. I do really like this photo but I do think there are some improvements that could be done for example the model on the far right is a little to far away from the model in the middle and the model on the far left is a little to close, I feel that I need to pay a little more attention when taking photos to fix problems like this straight away. 

To improve, I'd properly change the lighting each picture feels really dark and difficult to see what's going on.

I didn't have a whole lot of time during this session as we were the last group in, I token a reasonable amount of photos but nothing I was massively proud of, but none the less I still had some good photos. I found this session to be rather easy as I had already tried contrast location and I incorporated what I'd learnt for from that and brought in into the studio.


In this photo the contrast between the two models is quite clear, one has a bowl around her head the other does not, I thought this photo was fun to look at, it looks good and makes you laugh a little, although for this photo I would have to crop of the right hand side as the background has come in a little.


This photo has a lot of contrast involved for example an obvious one it the different kind of shoe but also leg size, jeans, shoe size and colour, this image is good but for me the shoes could be more centred but also more in line with each other as one is higher than the other. 

To improve, I'd like a longer period and i believe that i could come up with some more creative ideas and much better photos.

In this session I had the opportunity to take photos of people surrounding the idea of contrast, I found this easy as you use pretty much anything for example contrast in gender and height. This was easy for me as I had already practiced these skills trying to do studio work.


This photo uses contrast really well, the colour difference in the jumper and jacket flows really nicely, not only is there contrast in colour but also in the fabric as you can clearly see the difference in the soft jumper and rough jacket. . 


This photo shows contrast in something other than colour, in this photo the contrast is between the sky and buildings, the sky is cloudy but also flat almost whereas the building is more alive and the different look of the building next to the sky is really nice. 

To improve I believe that i could find better contrast between people, gender and height are very clear things perhaps it would be fun to take photos of minuscule contrast.

In this session we went out and focused on contrast much like in our studio work but this time within the real world and this meant being able to focus on nature and natural contrast. Flowers and walls had quiet a major part in session and that is what the majority of my photos resembled. I found this to be rather easy as i found good contrast in a natural environment although i did forget to take photos of contrast in people.


This is very good photo from the session, I like this photo because the contrast is strong yet there isn't a lot of the yellow, the compassion of the photo is what causes the contrast to have a better effect, I feel that if the yellow was in a corner the photo wouldn't be as good as it is. 


This for me is a really good photo, the contrast from the brick withe wall and the floor goes very well although there are things that I would improve, for example if I was to move the brick away from the door as there is no reason for it to be there, also I feel as if I need to take it from a better angle it looks a little sideways.

Straight Images Contrast Location 2








Definition Post Contrast


Definition Post


The state of being strikingly different from something else in juxtaposition or close association.

Describing Words: Different, Colours, Size, Age, Gender, Material, Texture


Contrast here is clearly shown by the difference in snow and water, as well as the man in black and geese in white on the black water. This is contrast shown in both natural and slightly man made by the man in the photo.


Contrast here is show with elegance and slenderness of the ballerina against the roughness and obesity of the larger man. This is contrast within people and sizes showing that colour contrast is not the only form of contrast. 


This is contrast between eh leaf and the ground, your first thought is that its contrast between colour, red vs brown, but it could also be between wet and dry.


The contrast here is shown in colour and text urn, the grass looks spiky as the ground looks rough, there is usually more than one bit of contrast within a photo and this is a prime example. 

My Definition: Contrast is the difference in anything, whether that's size, colour or texture, it points out the difference in things.

Contrast Image Bank


The contrast shown her is the red rose amounts all the green, maybe it symbolises beauty among boring, all the other plants are the same but this one stands out. 


The contrast in colours here is shown by the the different colour pencils, Think the the whole of this image is to show how colours can be mixed in an extreme way, the colours are being mashed together onto the paper. 


The black and white in this image is the contrast in this image, this photo for me shows journey and a sense of adventure, a boy and his dog, similar to a plot in a movie. 


This image again uses black and white to create contrast maybe this time to create emotion of sadness, it's like the man on the bike is saying goodbye to someone he just missed and now they're gone. 


The contrast here is between the dock and the lake, between manmade and natural, the image looks really bright and amazing to look at but the bit of wood in the centre ruins that in a way and therefore could symbolise how people ruin nature. 


Here the contrast is between he different coloured fruit, the fruit here are coloured in extreme ways, the fruits aren't actually coloured purple and blue but this has been done in the editing stage this gives the image a clear but surreal feel to it.
