What is Photography?
My Favourites
This photograph of my friends shoes made it into my favourites of the set because I think is a successful photograph, and therefore can help me to describe what photography is. The thing I like about this photograph is that you can see all the marks and general wear on the shoes. This detail within the photograph really makes this picture what it is. I think that this is an important part of photography, that is that the little things can have a huge impact on the outcome of an image. This picture backs this point up; the mud below the nike symbol on the sole of the shoe, the stone jammed in the print of the shoe and the creases on the leather itself at the top of the photograph.
However it may seem, this photograph is not posed. This goes to prove that it is possible to take a good photograph through luck.
This photo is among the best of the set in my opinion. Firstly, i like that it is not certain what the main focus is. This is due to the photograph being out of focus, originally, I wanted to just take a photograph
