19th post

Tuesday 24th November, Greg tutorial. So today I had a short but good tutorial. I showed two ideas, the first, my Polaroid/bridge size idea went down surprisingly well. The idea as a whole is something that would be worth pushing forward, I can start to see myself developing this project into just three Ideas which Is good. The thing that I would really want to do is actually get a Polaroid camera and go out and do the work, but, being able to get hold camera and the now rare film would prove to be to challenging. One thing that I am seriously considering is doing take the photos on my Nikon F5 and create my Polaroid picture via making window frames. I made my own on photoshop and cutting it down to size to looking like a standard Polaroid but it didn't look to great.

The second idea that I showed was my bridge world idea which went down very well. The reason I create this was simply finding a good tutorial on the net but I'm pretty glad of the outcome. The picture below only took me about ten minutes to create and is still very basic and very unrefined. I'm going to try and make it so that both of the ends of the bridge meet. What's so different about it is a bridge is nearly always a straight line, maybe curved, but with this picture it's completely changed, you never see a circular bridge...


The third idea that I would want to push forward is the 99 bridges idea which is the most basic of the three. All this project would involve is to take pictures of 99 bridge and then lay all the pictures out into a large grid kind of like the Bechers but It would be in colour and many more then the Bechers use.
