Conceptual idea and photographs.

27/3/2012
(week 7)


This was another encouraging class. Thanks goes out to Sean for such positive feedback on the selection of photographs i put on display for everyone to comment on and give feedback. It was great to see everyone's concepts and start to understand a little more about their style of photography and what interests them etc


I enjoy the review process of this class to. Scattering out a bunch of prints for sorting and discussion amongst my peers and lecturer is a fantastic thing for me as it frees-up the confines a computer screen limits you with during this process. I will continue to do this process in the future for all my work.


For me, it is often hard to single-out one or two inspirational photographers, because i take inspiration from so many aspects of different creative industries and day-to-day life.. but I appreciate Sean giving me with a few photographers to reference/research to help my theme - i will continue to look for others as well.

Josef Koudelka - http://www.magnumphotos.com/Archive/C.aspx?VP=XSpecific_MAG.PhotographerDetail_VPage&pid=2K7O3R135R3G&nm=Josef%20Koudelka



The following images are other random samples of inspiration i have found before even deciding to tackle this theme - the sub-concious mind continues to wow me :) You may also notice some familiarity between these and the images i have been taking below.

Here are the images of mine that were singled-out by Sean to tell my story... basically my theme is trying to show the beauty in simplicity.
