Focus:

 

• Using shadows and contrast to capture movement - hustle and bustle of city life in a subtle and effortless way

 

• Use the urban landscape of lines, edges and urban shapes, patterns, feature walls for:

  • Balance and symmetry

  • Composition, framing and geometric structure

 

• Soft (thematic) colour palette I did attempt to show this (as seen in my experiments), but in my end product, I decided to keep my photos consistent with a black and white theme. It seemed to give the photographs more depth and meaning. And was very 'street photography' appropiate.

  • Photograph is molded around a key colour 

    • bright and bold subject

    • subtle hues

  • All combined to create harmony

 

• Black and white filter

  • Bring out certain geometric shapes and patterns in the photograph

  • Emphasise shadows and contrasts

  • Underground tunnels

  • People waiting at platforms
