LAURA WILLIAM'S PHOTOGRAPHS...
This photograph has an autumn effect towards the viewers because of the different colours of the leaves including orange and green. Also, the photograph includes a long depth of field which is also described as deep, where more of the photograph appears sharp. This is better than a short depth of field because it shows more of the photograph to the viewers which makes the photograph more effective.

This photograph has an effect of childhood memories because it shows a child reading a book. The book could be a nursery rhyme book or fairy tales which links with the other photographs. However, this photograph is very focused on the main subject and is obvious to the reader that the book and the girl are the main subject. The whole photograph is fitting towards the photographers style of photography and how they are all displayed. |
I created this by taking a photograph of a person holding a mirror and then took another photograph of the same landscape to then layer onto the original photograph. This then created the horizon feeling of the photograph. The main subject is displayed at the right of the photograph, however, Williams normally displayed her subject as the centre of her photographs. The colours link with her photographs as she displays them in a natural source. The depth of field is a long depth of field as you focus on the background. However, there is also a feature of a short depth of field as you automatically look at the mirror of the photograph. The trees and the houses add a different tone to the photograph, as William's features no human interaction other than the subject which is a difference between her and my photographs.
Christopher Mckenney
Surreal Photographer
Christopher Mckenney is a surrealist photographer who uses Autumn coloured themes in the background of his strange photographs. The subject of the photograph is easily noticed from the viewers as it is in the centre. Also, there is a long depth of field on the photograph which is a good composition because you can see the whole landscape and background. This is a helpful feature in the photograph because it adds in extra texture in the photograph, the texture is mainly in the leaves on the floor as you can see the lighting is bright on them.
