CONTRAST & TEXTURE
YEAR 8 - A recent project with my Year 8 students was an exploration into the world of macro photography. This was quite a challenge as we are currently in a period of online learning due to Covid restrictions. Students rummaged around their homes for jewels and other decorative objects to photograph. They were asked to set up a mini studio, including a clean white background and lamp. Using a tablet or phone to take their images the students needed to make sure they had strong contrast in their photos, that they were filling the frame and to include a range of textures with ornate details. I was highly impressed with their images and they are now ready to move onto the next step - drawing!
