Stage 3
For stage 3 I have decided to do focus on the surroundings of the street, I have enjoyed taking pictures of specific people but I also want to focus on the environment we live in. This includes physical streets, life in the city and the impact we have on the places we live (rubbish, graffiti etc). I have also made a critical link from some research I have done for this stage.
Critical link
The physical street
For this part of my project, I wanted to transition from focusing on people, to the physical street itself. I looked at the environment around me as I walked through both the countryside and the city, along with the imagery of the street infront of me with no people around.
Countryside
City street
The environment around me- Litter
These are some photographs of some litter I found laying around the street, I did not move any of these so the pictures are taken exactly where the litter was dropped. When walking around I noticed the majority of the rubbish around was actually cans and shots of alcohol, the is what I focused these pictures on...
Rule of thirds
Stickers...
These are some stickers I found placed by people throughout the northern quarter, I enjoyed looking for these as they added so much to the image of the street just from being stuck around. There are a range of different stickers, some promoting music, some political, some punk style and a variety of others. I've edited them into different styles with some being in color, some being black + white and some cropped.
