DSDN 144 Project 3- Light.

Review after second shoot and moving foward-

After looking through and reviewing the photos from my second shoot, I am happy with some of the photos and how the lights I attached on the pole succsesfully create the long trail of light I was aiming to achieve. They succsesfully guide a viewer through a photo and display my idea on how lights act as guides.

My next step to improve my project is to explore more areas on where I want to photograph my photos, and this time I want to focus on whether I want the viewer to be within the path of light or be observing the long path of light at a different angle that may appear more interesting. I want to improve this area because I want to bring the feeling I want to get across in my photos foward more. If the observer was looking at the photos from a different angle, they may appear at a more interesting view to look at, but won't be feeling as if though they are a part of the long trail of light that is aiming to lead the observer through the photo. However setting the camera to sit within the light trail may take away the use of different angles to observe at and make my photo sequence look boring and uninteresting.

Another area I am aiming to improve on with this project is to make sure my story is getting across more clearly- How lights act as guides with a specific location. I feel that this is an area that I would like to improve on because while it is displaying light in an abstract form, I feel that this could still be improved on some of the little things such as the use of colour. Even though the coloured lights are succsesfully showing a succsesful trail for the viewer to follow as a guide through the photo, the many different colours seem to be somewhat distracting. For my second shoot I am going to look at having one colour for it instead of 4 to see whether it makes the photos overall apperance better or worse.
