Take Photographic Images for a Specific Purpose

I have chosen three categories to take photos of. These categories are;

  • Record an event. I'm going to record a trip to the zoo, focussing on the animals.
  • For an exhibition of nature.
  • A concept of close up photographs.

Cropping Images

This is my original wide shot. Not many of my wide shots had lots of interesting parts as the school is quite mundane, so I've done the best I can with this one. I have cropped four smaller images from this one of the sections that I've found the most interesting.
This is taken from the bottom right corner of the photo. I found this to be an interesting section as the tree is set to the left of the new image (rule of thirds) and the tree silhouettes well against the sky.The darker more obvious clouds are set further forward than the white ones, which I think makes the photo look slightly  layered.

This one is from the right of the photo. The main focus of this doesn't follow the rule of thirds, as the top of the roof is set mainly in the middle of the photo. However, the top of the tree is to the left of the new image which I think helps make it seem like it's framed better. There aren't many colours in the photo, but there's slightly more textures; the clouds, the sky, the building and the tree.

This is take from a section of the sky somewhere near the middle of the original image. I chose this section because the clouds are mottled slightly, similar to the scales of a fish. I find this to be an interesting cloud pattern, and so thought it was a good section of the photo. The colours in this one are nice and bright and contrast better than the previous two, even if there's only blue and white. This one shows the textures of the clouds better as well because they're more visibly fluffy.

This is another section of brighter more colourful sky, but these clouds are smoother and less mottled. This cloud looks fuller and larger, making it a different sort of photo. One aspect of this I don't like is there is a the tip of a darker cloud in the bottom right of the new image,  which, in my opinion, looks slightly like a blemish on an otherwise bright photo.
