Straight Images - Depth

Work Diary - Depth

In the depth session, we originally set out to take images of form but then there was a slight change in weather so the shadowing needed to capture form disappeared so we then had to take images of form. Depth seemed easier to capture as it is all around us, it just depends on the angle in which you look at things.

I like this image because it shows the depth of the stairs as it shows the whole of the first step then less of the other stairs as they go up the stairs. 

I like this image because it clearly shows the bricks in focus but then gets blurry this shows the depth of the wall because it shows the bricks are uneven and raised and they are showing a 3d scene in a 2d image. 






Progression - If i was to re-do the depth session, i would of taken more images so i have a wider variety of images to choose from for my final images. I would like to include more depth using objects so it shows the depth of the field in the shot. This is an example of the style of photograph which i wish to include in my future work.

Description - Depth

Dictionary definition - The definition of depth  from the online Cambridge dictionary is 'the distance from the front to the back of something'.

Words to describe depth - deep, dimensional, profound, thick, shadowed


My definition - The angle of something which makes it look like there is more than one dimension to it.

This image shows depth as it shows the rail way track getting smaller as it goes into the distance. It also shows depth as it is focused on the beginning of the track which is in clear focus and the rest of the track is less clear, this shows depth as it shows there is more to the scene than what its focused on.

This image represents depth well as the camera focuses on the first bowling ball but you can see that there are other balls in the shot.

This brick wall is showing depth as you can see that the scene is showing something which is 3d..

This image is good because it not only shows depth in the railway tracks but in the beams which the bridge is made of.The light coming from the rear of the image gives a natural, dusky look to the image which creates the needed effect to show it is 3d.

These 6 images represent depth as you can see that these scenes are showing 3d scenes in a 2d format, they are showing things getting smaller as they go into the distance which suggests that they have length which is why i can tell that they are a 3d object in a 2d format. In all of these images there is a clear shadow along all of the main objects in the images.
