Thank you again Julian for this picture which according to the credit and caption is a self portrait. I hope he got the shot in the first take.

This film was made using a special still lens called a tilt shift lens which is normally used for very technical images but can be used to create this toy town look. The still images are then assembled together to create a stop frame animation.

This website is full of observational street shots which juxtapose people with familiar urban objects such as advertising hoardings and pidgeons.

I would like to take advantage of the lighter evenings and go out as a group and take some landscape/cityscapes at the beginning of next weeks class. We will then review the work that you have done over the last few weeks for assignment 4.

Here is a slightly cheesy shot that I took last week in Brittany.

After a nesting seagull disturbed my pinhole camera positioned on the roof of a University of Bristol building I decided to end my exposure 4 weeks early (underexposing by 1 stop).

Here is the photograph, as you can see there is quite a lot of camera shake. If you know Bristol the tower is the Will Building at the top of Park Street.

Visitors to the Strobists site may have already seen Nick Turpin’s video, I like the minimalist approach and the use of everyday locations.

Here are some examples of Fay Godwins pictures

I mentioned Neil Turner’s site in last night’s class, there is loads of information on his old site such as this one on mixing colour temperatures (white balance). He now places his new tips on his blog which you may also find useful.

He often delivers talks around the country which can be really informative.

These are links to some of the landscape photographers discussed in this week’s session, Simon Norfolk, and  John Davies.

Ansel Adams is seen as one of the masters of landscape photography sadly there are few websites that show the fine detail of his images. The Ansel Adams official website is a very commercial operation, there are a few images to view but the detail is not that great. Perhaps worth a trip to the library.

Here are some examples from a contemporary Russian portrait photography exhibition in Paris.
