Work Diary- 3rd Shoot

 In todays lesson I did a shoot for my personal project in the studio. I photographed a number of different fruit but not the whole fruit just the inside of the fruits as I like the colours and the textures of them. If I was to do this lesson again I would get a bigger variety of fruits and I would experiment will the different angles and shot types I could use. I would also try to get even closer images to capture more in-depth detail of the inside of the fruit.


In this image I have taken an extreme close up of the inside of a pomegranate. I used the boom as the lighting for my images, making it very bright, highlighting the colours and the contrast between the bright red and the darker red. Due to the fact that the image is so close it allows the audience to image what the texture would feel like. If I was to take this image again I would experiment with the different angles that I could take it from. 


This image is an extreme close up of a red grape fruit. Due to the image being so close up you can see that detailed lines and patterns of the inside of the grape fruit. I light the vibrant red colour of the inside and it looks brighter against the white line in the centre. I like the composition of the image as its only including the inside and not the outside of the fruit. I used the same lighting for this image as the above image. If I was to take this image again I would again experiment with the different angles.

My inspiration behind this shoot came from the use of bright colours used in close up images that I found when completing my personal project image bank of 25 pictures. 

As a result of this shoot I am going to incorporate more food photography into my future shoots as I felt that all the pictures looked appealing to look at due to the use of bright colours but also because all pictures of food are appealing as everybody likes to look at food images. From this shoot I have found that the use of vibrant colours make the pictures more interesting. For my next shoot I am going to find an alternative way to photograph vibrant colours.
