More 10 Second Snapshots

Here i set up my camera again somewhere i knew that alot of people would be walking past. I was interested in just seeing peoples feet moving through the space. I found the amount of people that moved through the space whilst i was photographing it interesting and think that the line up of photos seems quite intriguing as the viewer is left to imagine the rest of the person, bike, buggy etc. 

10 Second Photos

I am currently looking at the construction of narratives within videos and photos. To experiment with these ideas i set up my camera in my window looking down at the road below. I knew that people and cars would be moving through the space but that i could not choreograph or construct. This first test was created between 4.30 and 5.00pm, and i took a photo every 10 seconds for the whole half hour. This gave me a 180 photo, unconstructed narrative leaving viewers to make their own assumptions.

newspaper void

By ripping into layers of newspaper a tunnel impression has been created. The textures and layers which become increasingly smaller make these images visually interesting to me. The camera has emphasized certain 

 areas and exaggerates the depth and perspective to give a more uncanny impression. 

moving fan

Whilst walking around university I noticed  moving fan on the side of a building. There were moments where I could see inside and when I photographed this the images above were produced. They remind me of the saying "light at the end of the tunnel". The blurriness and contrast between the dark shadow and the clear detail of whats inside is striking. 

Tunnel

Taken through an old found concrete tunnel these images exaggerate depth, perspective and shadow. There is something about the circle shape which becomes smaller and smaller which I find interesting, there is a sense of mystery and intrigue. 

Uncanny - 'kitchen roll'

Uncanny can be defined as something which is familiar yet unfamiliar at the same time. My starting point was to take a familiar material and make it unrecognizable. I think this was successful in the sense it isn't immediately obvious what it is, the viewer focuses on the hole and asks what is behind there and where does it lead to.  My camera has allowed me to expand this idea, different settings giving some very different impressions.
