Presentation Transcript

  1. Abstract-Shape and Pattern

  2. Some basics • Depth of field - Remember your aperture • Do I need to shoot in macro – If so, what are your options? • What about ISO?

  3. Aperture A large aperture f/4 or f/5.6 for a small depth of field A small aperture f/22 or f/20 for a large depth of field

  4. Taken at f/2.8 Taken at f/8

  5. Shutter speed • Shutter speed is the amount of time the shutter stays open when you take a photograph • It is useful for photographing moving objects. Slow shutter speeds on a moving object produce blurring. For example: A shutter speed of 1/30 photographing your child running around the garden, would result in a blurry image, 1/160 would stop the burring of the subject. • A slow shutter speed teamed with panning would create a great motion blurring effect, giving the impression of movement. • A slow shutter speed with the camera mounted on a tripod can create artistic light trails. E.g. Light trails from a car at night or fireworks.

  6. Long exposure – Long depth of field

  7. What makes a good Abstract or Pattern picture? Any ideas as to what this is?

  8. Long exposure – Short depth of field - Possible high ISO

  9. Something everyday becomes an interesting subject

  10. It’s all in the eye of the photographer Great macro shot of quite an ordinary subject

  11. Pattern/Abstract shot - Just oil, water and a lamp

  12. Abstract shot - Shooting a zoom burst

  13. Do you recognise this object from your childhood?

  14. Abstract Architecture

  15. Great composition enhanced by being shot in black and white

  16. Would you have recognised the subject without the man?

  17. Utilising glass and reflection

  18. Great abstract photographs and more www.simoncaplanphotography.co.uk www.flickr.com/photos/simoncaplan

  19. Abstract/Pattern task • Using whatever you have at your disposal, camera, phone or just discuss, take a photo in the building of either an abstract or pattern subject.
