Another Day of Rain...Friday's Post.

Yet again we had another day of rain :( but still I took two horses out riding so rain or shine I still ride. This is the reason I choose this image because the horses just look a little unenthusiastic!! Again I tried to show my daily jobs (not chores!) to see how it differed from everyones elses life within the blog group.

Thursday...What a day!



Today was our tutorial and so I decided now would be the appropriate time to narrow down my theme as it still seems to be a little random. I still want to stick with "The Outside World" but I want to make it more specific basing it where I keep my horse because it is a major part of my life and is my main reason for loving being outside. I want to focus on the actual yard, the day to day stuff I find normal yet others may not, maybe the things I take for granted like a gallop in the fields. So here is my image for the day of my horse eating a carrot out of a puddle!! I decided to choose this image as I don't want straight forward documentary images I want to work with composition and angle to create a more interesting image, without trying to be "arty farty" - direct quote from Hugh. Hopefully my project will take some direction from now on!!!!

Wedneday's Post!


I am goin along with the theme of The Outside World but today I decided to make images of something I see everyday and which I never really look at in detail and appreciate. These are a few shots of a tree in my garden, I decided to shoot them close-up as I like the detail on the needles.

Tuesdays post.





Now i have decided on the theme of The Outside World I decided to photograph this aeonium that i came across earlier, I think it fits into my theme as although its part of "The Outside World" also it is a natural object which is what I think i will focus on. I really like the colour of it and the pattern that the leaves naturally make, this is why i decided to publish it for today's blog. Another reason I decided to publish these pictures is because its been a horrible day and hoped this would brighten it up a little!!

The Theme!!

As i am now getting into this project I decided with a hint from Hugh that i needed to begin to set a theme for this project. I originally thought animals as so far this has been a common theme in my work, the obvious exception being the misrepresenting nottingham section. But I thought about it and with the help of research on general documentary photography I decided to call my project The Outside World. Basically, everyday of my life i spend a lot of time in "the great outdoors". Sometimes the reason may be an animal commitment but mostly its becuase I just enjoy being outside so this is my reason for theming my blog in this way and hopefully my pictures will be a representation of this.
