For this shoot, I have aimed to show how weather affects metal surfaces, such as drains, padlocks, pipes and other surfaces that are exposed to the air and have been weathered majorly. I intended to suggest that weather doesn't just change the appearance of objects and features overnight, but over a period of time, as weather is forever changing it's state. This shoot took me approximately 40 minutes.
WWW - I feel this shoot was successful because I have captured a series of events of how weather affects objects in an outside environment. For instance I have mainly taken pictures of different metal objects to see how they weathered over a period of time. This is shown by rust and de-colouration. I particularly liked my photograph of the padlock featured as the third photograph on the right below. I liked this one because of the composition of how the lock lays at its surface and the angle at which I have taken it. Another reason why I have taken this photo to my pleasing is because of the shades of rust, and how it has strengthened in parts due to the amount of time it has been weathered for. Another image that I feel has been successful is the handle that is shown in the middle of the second row, below. I was pleased with this photo because of the contrast of colours between the rust and the green paint, and how weather over time has taken away the paint in certain places more than others.
EBI - I feel like I could of explored more examples of weather objects other than specifically metal based. I could of done this by going to other locations instead of instead sticking to the same area with similar aspects of weathered items. I feel like I should of taken more long-distance photography and not as much close-up. Although close-up images show a desired affect of how a type of weather has perceived on a surface, on the other hand, I feel could of taken more photographs from a distant to show a background of the location, choosing a more prominent location like a pier or lighthouse, that has been affected extremely by various weathers, for example rain, wind, snow.
