LO1- A good photograph

 A good photograph


In my opinion, a good photograph is something which instantly catches the eye. The image should send the viewer a message, or a story. And the long you look at it, the more intrigued you should become. This could be done with interesting lighting, a quirky composition or quite plainly just an image of something different.


When I take my photographs, I shall bare this in mind. Particularly as it shall be for a media product so therefore it is a main goal to catch peoples eye and make them see something different, something which will make them want to purchase that product.

One of my favourite photographers is Chris McKenney, because he creates really interesting images. His themes are usually really dark, but catch your eye and tell the audience a story.

Unfortunately, his work is not ideal for media products though his use of lighting and photo 'doctoring' means he would still be good to draw inspiration from.
