When shooting my last shoot it didn't really interest me because there is no meaning behind my images. So I have decided to change to street and urban photography. I'm going to research Dan Holdsworth and then explore night time photography. Dan holdsworth is a street photographer who focuses on taking photos of natural landscapes, roads and lights. When taking his photos he uses long exposure as one of his many techniques, this allows him to capture light trails from the cars. Long-exposure, time-exposure, or slow-shutter photography involves using a long-duration shutter speed to sharply capture the stationary elements of images while blurring, smearing, or obscuring the moving elements. Long-exposure photography captures one element that conventional photography does not: an extended period of time. I'm also going to explore the techniques of night time photography. When taking photos at night I would take a flashlight to light up aspects of the image. I would also take a tripod to stop the camera from losing focus. Night time changes even the most familiar scenes. This creates an opportunity for a whole new range of photos. You can easily change the perception of the image by taking the photo at night instead of taking the image in broad daylight.
