http://richardrp-taop.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Detailed logbook for my work on the Open College of Arts course, The Art of Photography. Tuesday, 29 April 2008. Today I worked on the Smooth. Subject, par t of the smooth/rough contrast pair. It was mainly cloudy today, and fairly bright at times and so I decided to use the relatively diffuse daylight that falls onto our dining room table to light a few subjects. Here are the results, I've tried to be fairly abstract, concentrating on the lighting and smoothness:. Monday, 28 April 2008. After a few hour...

TAoP: Sunrise
http://richardrp-taop.blogspot.com/2008/04/sunrise.html
Detailed logbook for my work on the Open College of Arts course, The Art of Photography. Wednesday, 9 April 2008. I got out early this morning, by about 6.15am, hoping to catch the sunrise. I got in the car and headed over to Ivinghoe Beacon (Bucks) and the sun was already up! By 830am I'd completed a circuit taking in the top of the Beacon and made around 60 shots. I've put a selection of these on my home website. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Project 8: recording a sequence. The Alphabet of Art.

TAoP: Project 13: the golden section
http://richardrp-taop.blogspot.com/2008/04/project-13-golden-section.html
Detailed logbook for my work on the Open College of Arts course, The Art of Photography. Saturday, 12 April 2008. Project 13: the golden section. After reading the text in the folder, I still had gaps in my understanding of the Golden Section and so went searching for more information. Here's a resource I found useful: Apogee Photo Mag: Creativity and the Rule of Thirds. And there's a useful Photoshop script to add a layer to images with the rule of thirds or golden section: GoldenRatio.zip. Eyes are on ...

TAoP: Sunset
http://richardrp-taop.blogspot.com/2008/04/sunset.html
Detailed logbook for my work on the Open College of Arts course, The Art of Photography. Thursday, 24 April 2008. After a few hours out taking pictures in afternoon and not being too happy with the results, my wife persuaded me to head out in the evening, the sky was looking good and there was still a little light around. I headed for the Pitstone/Ivinghoe, first I headed up towards the Beacon where I took this:. So now I need to figure out how they can be used in TAoP. Assignment 1 - Diagonal?

TAoP: Project 8: recording a sequence
http://richardrp-taop.blogspot.com/2008/04/project-8-recording-sequence.html
Detailed logbook for my work on the Open College of Arts course, The Art of Photography. Thursday, 17 April 2008. Project 8: recording a sequence. I didn't really like this project, as I said earlier, I don't like the idea of walking around in amongst a crowd of people with a big camera pointing at them. I opted for the Zoo as a location and the flamingos in their surroundings. As a subject. Here are the shots I took on the approach and closer in:. 1 I could see the flamingos, too far away, walk in.

TAoP: Snow in April
http://richardrp-taop.blogspot.com/2008/04/snow-in-april.html
Detailed logbook for my work on the Open College of Arts course, The Art of Photography. Sunday, 6 April 2008. Today I woke and outside was covered in a blanket of snow. It was about 7.20am and it was still snowing. After feeding the baby his milk, I was ready to head into the back garden armed with my tripod and camera. I took some shots of a spiders web which was holding snowflakes, daffodils bowing their heads and other flowers and objects. Here are a few:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
