Wingardium Leviosa

Yesterday I stumbled across a photography/Photoshop trick where you can make it look like you're floating... I tried this, for no other reason than I thought it looked proper cool!! These are the first photos I tried, so they are not perfect at all.. But it's got me thinking of other creative ways I could use this technique...

Some cats that I met on my journey...

'Traditional Photography' Module_Project 2 Finals

These are the final pieces for the front and back cover of my CD. I did selective masking on the front photograph, adding a sepia tone to all of the image but leaving the hand in grey-scale. I did the same for the back; leaving the drum pure black so that it contrasted with the white text. I used an acetate overlay to expose everything but the text.

My second project for the traditional photography module was to design an CD or DVD cover. I decided to take photographs of 'potential artists' in various settings...

'Traditional Photography' Module_Project 1

During my first year of university I took part in an optional 'Traditional Photography' module. I was taught all the basics of using an SLR film camera, developing and printing using traditional techniques and adding tone and colour. These photographs are from my first project, titled "A Journey". They are taken at various points along the River Eden in Carlisle.

I used a Pentax MX with Black and White film. I did all the developing by hand and have not digitally manipulated the images...
