CAMDEN MARKET - AUGUST 2010

objective- looking for images for Assignment 3

• Complementary colours( colours that face each other across the colour wheel


• similar colours( those that are near each other)


• colour accent

The series of three shots below were taken tat Camden town tube station. I reduced shutter speed to a hand held speed to capture the contrasting colours of the tube train against the yellow of the lines on the platform. I focused on the words " mind the gap" to add interest to the composition and make it obvious to the viewer what the subject is.

This is my favourite image as you can see clearly all the colours

and there is a small reflection of the words in the trains body

LEARNING NOTES/COMMENTS

disappointed at coming away with less images than had planned for. Still need to improve sharpness of images so will need to consider not using any filters, which reduces the f numbers,
