Example of his work
My Opinion On His Work
This Photograph which was taken in Southern California is a reflection photograph. The reflection is coming from a mirror. The image is like optical illusion because it looks very dark on the ground and the mirror is pointing to the sky and the mountains. His photographs are related to the reflection.
This photograph looks very good but looks a bit edited because the sky doesn't look very realistic enough according to me. The image looks real in some particular places such as the rock and the tree and his pictures are taken in California which is in America. The photographer has always taken photograph like these because it's his life and he can inspire people to.

My opinions on his work
Working In the style of the photographer : Lee Friedlander
Plan for shoot One :
I am going to work in the style of a photographer which is Lee Friedlander. I am going to take pictures of mirror reflection from the cars because I want to work in the style of photographers.
Shoot One :
Personal Response :
Best Image :I like this Image because I like the angle and the way I took the picture. The picture has the glare of the sun and that makes it stand out.
|
Worst Image:I personally don't like this Image because the way I took the Image was terrible. I took the picture from an high angle. To Improve, I will sit inside the car and take the picture from a better angle.

Working In the style of Daniel Kukla :
I am going to work in the style of Daniel Kukla and I am going to take reflections from a mirror stand and try to work in the style of him. I am going to take the pictures outside if the weather is decent enough.
Plan for Shoot Two :
For my shoot two, I am going to work in the style of Daniel Kukla and I am going to take pictures like as reflection and also I am going to get the sky or the sun in the picture.
Shoot Two:
Best Image : |
Worst Image : |
This is the best Image because it is focused on a particular area. I like this picture because it is a reflection of a house through a mirror.
|
I do not like this Image because it is not focused properly and it is a reflection but I was too close to take the picture. If I were to take another picture again I would take the picture a bit far away.
|
Plan for shoot two:
Shoot Three:
Best Image:This is my best picture because I took it through a window of a door which gave of a reflection from the window and you can see a bit of the hall in the Image.
|
Worst Image:This is my worst picture because I tried to get a reflection from the window but I did not hold the camera properly or the exposure and the aperture wasn't correct. To improve I will need to probably set the exposure and aperture correctly or hold the camera properly.
|
Plan For Shoot Five:
- I am going to take pictures of reflection. I will take pictures sitting inside the car because I am going to take a reflection from the mirror of the car. I am also going to work in the style of a photographer who is called Lee Friedlander. I am going to use Mobile Phone because I do not have a camera out of school. The phone I am going to is Samsung Galaxy S6 because of the camera.
Shoot 5:
Best Image :This is the best Image because the photograph has an effect that made it look better. I worked in the style of the photographer Lee Friedlander. This photograph is focused on a particular area. It was the black and white effect.
|
Worst Image :This Image is my worst because it is over exposed and it does not look quite good and it is not focused on the car mirror. If I were to take the picture I would focus it and take the picture.
