Josef Sudek

Josef Sude was a still-life photographer who used everyday objects, such as; eggs, bread and glasses of water to create strong images.

What I am to Achieve;

Using what i know on Josef Sudek i plan to take a series of still life photographs using raspberries, as leant with shooting with fruit from my previous shoot, and a glass ( with water ), life Josef Sudek.

Best Images;



These aremy best imagaes as; theyre are all in focus, with some having depth blur, and have vibrant reds from the strawberries, with lighting that workds and isnt ttoo overpowering.

Images that require improvement;

This image requires imrpovement because it is slightky out of focus, but also as the background shows too much. To correct thiua next time i will use manual mode and be more precautionary when shooting.

This image requires improvement because it is out of focus and over exposed. To fic this in the nect shoot i will use the zoom ring effectivly when using manual mode and use a shorter shutter speed.

This image requires improvement because the image is too dark. To correct this next time i must use the lighting more effectively and/or make sure flash is set up properly.

AO3; Record ideas, observations and insights relevant to intentions, reflecting critically on work and progress

My idea for photographing Circles and Curves was to use the natural form of fruits such as raspberries and manmade objects with form and curves like wine glasses. I was inspired by the work of Yayoi Kasuma as she uses circles in a regular lattice and bright bold colours to create mesmerising and eye catching abstract work. Her use of sed bold colours and cirles inspired me to use raspberries as she have a strong red hue.

AO2; Explore and select appropriate resources, media, materials, techniques and processes, reviewing and refining ideas as work develops

AO1; Develop ideas through sustained and focused investigations informed by contextual and other sources, demonstrating analytical and critical understanding.

AO4; Present a personal and meaningful response that realises intentions and, where appropriate, makes connections between visual and other elements. 

Progression 

Progressing on from this shoot i have done research on additional artists like Man Ray and have decided to shoot abstract shots of close up paper to show curves by accentuating the tones in the image.
