Branislav Kropilak has one of my favourite styles of photography due to his subject in the series he did and the use of editing to show more of one colour from the image. For these images I used an original image and then edited them to show more colour in a style similar to Branislav Kropilak. In the series “Landings”, Kropilak takes slow shutter images of aeroplanes going in for landing to show the lights on the plane.     This creates a solid line in the path which the plane has taken, along with the individual flashes of light from the alternating red and white of the landing lights in the centre of the plane itself.   He then emphasises the colours in the sky by editing the images to show more of that one colour, seemingly making the whole image that one colour.  To create my interpretation of his work, I imported my original slow shutter images into Photoshop and then adjusted the hue and sometimes the saturation. This is one of my original images that I took,

I have completed a test for a analog 3D idea where I took an image of a random persons face, mounted it on foam core and then cut a section out of it to then show a layer below which was the part of the skull that would be behind that part of the flesh. Then I cut another hole in the skull part which also was mounted on foam core to then have the brain behind it to show the layers of a humans head. The effect seems as if the head has actually been cut into to show the other layers that you don't see, unless you are a doctor. The foam core also adds to the layering as it then shows depth and that the layer is behind another layer or in front of one. Creating this had its difficulties as there was only one take on cutting through the foam board and image and getting the positioning right for each image to then show through. The cuts are perfect on this piece so it wasn't going to be nor was intended to be a final piece, but more of a proof of concept.

Devin Graham is a videographer who is mostly known for his action packed videos, but in some of his videos he has some stunning time lapses. Graham has had the chance to travel the globe and capture some amazing footage, from places like Sydney, Australia to Machu Picchu, Peru. Each time lapse he has created has been created in the way where you take each individual photo instead of just recording the scene and then speeding the footage up. Graham goes by the name of "devinsupertramp" on Youtube and has over 4.8 million subscribers and over 1 billion accumulative views. One time-lapse that Graham has done is in his Easter Island proposal Youtube video, where he had surprised his girlfriend at the time by proposing to her in front of the Easter Island head status that are scattered around the island. But he didn't just have the moment where he proposes to her in the video, he had taken a number of time lapses that show the beauty of the island and how stunning it c

Sam Taylor-Johnson is an English filmmaker and photographer. One of her film works has been on one of the members of the Beatles, John Lennon. Taylor-Johnson began showing her fine art photography work off in the early 90s. Taylor-Johnson then later created a wraparound photomural around scaffolding of the London department store Selfridges during the time it was being restored. The piece featured 21 icons including Elton John. The piece referenced famous works of art from the past and recent movies. Another piece that Sam Taylor-Johnson has created is a time-lapse called "Still life". The time-lapse shows fruit decaying over time, becoming mouldy and inedible. Taylor-Johnson created the work in 2001 and commented "The classical still life is updated in this exquisite, simple meditation on morality and beauty. The addition of a supermarket peach and a Bic pen prompts questions about modern attempts at immorality.". She used a 35mm film camera to capture the images f

Pyramid Holograms Is a form of digital 3D photography where it takes four 2D digital images and and reflects them on a pyramid made from transparent plastic that reflects the images and almost stitches them together giving the illusion that the image is 3D and actually there when it is just reflections on the plastic.
