Research And Planning: Test Shots with SLR

This long shot of 3 people, is good quality however i think that without the flash the setting would have looked a bit more natural as due to the lighting which is already in the room, the flash makes it look very sharp  and almost unreal., it has whitewashed the photo. This photo doesn't have a main focus, the focus is concentrating on the whole photo and doesn't blur any part out.

 This medium shot again isn't focusing on one thing in the photo, it is focusing on the whole setting and the main subject of the model. It has much better quality than previous photos i have taken and looks very sharp and clear, in this photo i didn't use the flash and i think you can tell the difference with this one and the one above. This one in my opinion, looks better working with the inside lighting.

This medium long shot of this picture again, I didn't use the flash.  I didn't think it was needed due to the lighting from the window in the background, and the upper lighting placed above my model looked good enough inside without using the flash. Once again, with this photo it doesn't have a main focus, the focus is fully concentrated on the whole setting and people in the picture.

 

This medium long shot, and two shot is different to the previous as the main focus is the models in the pictures and the cars and the setting in the background are quite blurred, I did this as a try out to see what it would look like, i quite like this technique as it draws more attention to the models whilst still maintaining attention on the background. The lighting outside was very bright and natural, this showed realism in my photo. 

 This long, low angle shot of my model, has a strong focus on the whole picture.  The whole picture looks  very sharp due to the foreground and background being very close together, the lighting is very neutral and natural. It doesn't look too much, and looks much better without the flash, if i used the flash it would of look not as good or as focused. 

 This medium long and two shot is not as focused as the previous pictures, the two models are focused slightly however parts of their body is slightly blurred yet i think this is due to the lighting on this picture, i didn't use the flash however i think their was too much natural lighting. I like this effect though, as it creates a quite difference feeling to what the clear ones do.
