Never come back with nothing...

The brief for this image was for a close up of a wooden bench with room left on the arm for it to accommodate text and it also be at a slight angle. The images that I collected on the 'recce' needed to be shot that these things could be achieved. In order to achieve the correct close up and angle  I had to use the far side of the bench this meant it was the wrong way around. however I was able to correct this in photoshop by flipping it vertically. 



the requirements for this image were that the chimney must be brick and have four pots. Also that it must be free from ariels and sat-alight dishes (however they can be re touched out if there was no alternative). I was able to find a chimney that did not have any dishes and only one ariel attached to it that I was able to re move. The angle is not quite correct however it was difficult to get that angle as it was on privet property and fenced off.



I found this image the most challenging to replicate because of the restricted time scale that I had to find the images in. It was difficult to find a tree that was on its own and that also didn't have too much of crowded background. This is the best one that I was able to find, however if i had a longer time period to go and find another location I may have found a better match to the original image.



Although the brief was for a 'scary' looking door this is the best that I could find. I think that the scratched texture and peeling paint on do help to make it feel a little more sinister. If I had longer to source locations I think that I would have used a more sinister looking door way to help achieve the effect that the client wanted. However it would be possible to create the effect they wanted with this door in post production. 

From this workshop I have learnt that carrying out a 'recce' can be very useful when trying to match an exact idea for a client. Also that it is extremely important to look closely at their ideas and always keep them in mind, and constantly refer back to your brief so your images reflect their ideas clearly and effectively. 
I feel that I could have found more closely matched images to the briefs if i had of had a little more time to visit different locations and try different places.
