    Evaluation 

    My shots were all taken in my garden where there are allot of different kinds of flowers. i choose flowers for my natural forms as they are the most simple but effective thing to take a picture. They are the best thing to take a photo of as they are very colorful and vibrant.  both i my researchers helped me in to achieving these photo's as they also do the same kind of photography.

    GSCE PHOTOGRAPHY (S) - SECOND SHOTS






    
    These are my first three images that I picked as my first shots I think these are good and I like the way that I have edited them in Photoshop. These photos look and could have loads of different meaning.
    Top image:
    This first image has been edited to has been edited to have a cartoon like effect to it I think as it looks like it has been manipulated to look like it’s all the same building it just reminded me off cartoon picture where they have been made to look like something.
    I think this image is good because it could have a different story every time you look at this image. When I look at this image I see a building that looks like it’s being protected from something or its hiding something away.
    Second image:
    The second image I have chosen is this image of a building from an angle where you can see the sky. I chose this image to edit because it has the feel behind it that it’s a dark and gloomy building which has a dark structure so I edited this image to look darker. I also have created a cloudy effect above the building just to give it a bit more extra feel.
    Third image:
    The third image is of a building from a wide angle. I edited this picture as it looks like something you would see in a movie scene. I tried to make this image look like a screen shot from a movie. And I brighten the windows up so you can see a point of interest.

    GSCE PHOTOGRAPHY (S) TEST SHOTS 1


    Top Selected Photo: I have chosen this picture as one off my chosen three as it is a random shot and shows details of a building and shows you the pattern that has been used in the building which gives it a good effect and makes the viewer take interested as they would like to know what the photo meaning is.

    Middle Selected Photo: I have chosen this picture from my selection as like the first one it is a random shot off a building and also shares similarities with the first shot that was taken.

    Bottom Selected Photo: I have chosen this picture as one off my selection as it is an image of a part of the building that has been designed in a way which gives it a repetitive effect i think this is a good picture as it look like it has been edited this way where it just is the design of the building.
