31.3&4

I chose this photo out of a number of similar photos because I believed it had the best shutter speed and aperture settings. The settings let in enough light so we could see the silhouette but not too much that the photo was overwhelmed with white light. I decided not to use the rule of thirds here because I wanted this photo to have an unconventional look to it, and for it to stand out amongst the others.

I chose this photo because of how the flame leant slightly to the left of the frame, this worked well with the rule of third framing I'd been trying to achieve. The drastic contrast between the colours of the candle and the darkness provides a fantastic variation of colours for the viewer. I also lowered the ISO so that the picture was quite dull and dark to hint at the dark content of the show.

I chose this photo because it portrays the history of the city. I changed the focus so that the statue was more sharp than the building background, drawing the viewer's attention to whats important in the shot. The statue features a soldier holding a weapon which implies a dark war-struck history of violence. In a more positive light the statue shows the soldier keeping his head held high and has him facing the sunrise. This implies a fresh start for the history irrelevant of it's dark past.

I chose this photo, because of the way the dawn's sunlight reflects on the left side of the building. I also chose this shot because it respects the rule of thirds. Another reason I chose this photo was because the shutter speed and ISO settings were good enough to let in enough light to catch the colour of the sky whilst not overpowering the shot with white light.

I chose this photo because of the positioning of the buildings in the alleyway, and because the framing respects the rule of thirds. I chose a lower ISO with a high shutter speed so that the photo is quite dark, hinting at the characters dark surroundings as well as creating a sense of mystery. I utilised the manual focus on the camera so that the window at the centre of the frame was most sharp, and therefore having the viewer focus on what matters in the shot, not the two walls on either side.
