Book Review
Joel Sternfeld American Prospects

Joel Sternfeld American Prospects, contains photographs taken throughout the American landscape and within the book are some famous photographs of his, such as the 'McLean, Virginia, 1978'. The photographs taken throughout the book are all printed in colour and it is noticeable that the colour has a key role within this book as it helps emphasise the vibrancy of American and the contrasts between different colours within the American landscape.

'Wet 'N' Wild Aquatic Theme Park, Orlando, Florida, 1980'

This is the cover image of the book. The image shows people at one of the American water parks, it shows tourists relaxing and enjoying themselves with friends and/or family members. The main subject of the image is the middle ground where there is people within the wave pool enjoying themselves.

Within this image I find colour really interesting because I like how bright and vivid the water within the wave pool is in comparison to the rest of the image as the rest of the image's colour is dull and bland, this helps to draw your eyes onto the main subject of the image easier.

This was my second time in the studio. The focus was experimenting with shadows. To experiment with shadows we had to use a different lighting set up. These are a few of my favourite images. Hope you enjoy them :)

 

These photographs were taken during last term. This was my first time in the studio.

Here's a few examples of pattern, shape, texture and form, from the 1st and 2nd photography outings. Hope you enjoy them :)

Hi, my name is Danielle Jenkins. I am studying an AS photography course at Crosskeys Campus Coleg Gwent. I decided to take AS photography as I have a keen interest of the subject. I have decided to make a blog to post all of my work on throughout the year as I thought it was a good way to share my work with others who also have a keen interest in photography. My work will be reguarly be uploaded to my blog for you to view. I hope you enjoy my work and any feedback on any of my work would be appericated as it would help me greatly.
