photographs- townscape

 These are just a few of the photographs that i took when i was out side there all diffrent and I'm just basically showing photographs of the building i took pictures of. it was difficult and there was problems in the proses of gathering the images like getting color cause most building are grey or orange so had to explore the surrounding a bit more, and also the camera was a problem because to be fed I'm no expert on cameras i know basics and i couldn't find the right settings for the camera so had to go back to college and ask about that which is also a time waster. but at least i got my photographs and they look okay.









task1 townscape

henri cartier bresson photography, i like how he catches the moments of people but still has the the buildings in the background to give the picture life and a great effect it looks old fashioned and makes in an amazing picture. the buildings he chooses make an impact to the picture like this first picture makes a wonderful vue of all the building. he's a wonderful photographer and i like his work.
