All of these pictures were taken with a Nikon D40 at Billingham beck. For my first photoshoot I wanted to focus on nature and try to get some good natural pictures to combine with man made things, which will be my focus for another photoshoot. I tried a lot of different techniques but mainly tried to get deep focous shots of trees and bushes to put along side the pictures I will try to get on another photoshoot of man made things. A lot of the photos taken during this photoshoot were focused on the idea of nature overtaking and over-running man. To do this I tried to take photos of man made objects that had a lot of natural things around it, such as a gate that was overgrown with plants and weeds.
Heather Saunders in this photoshoot has filled up a house with flowers and plants, and taken photos of several different areas of it. I would like to take inspiration from this because it is easy to do and allows me to set up how I want the plants to look rather than me finding them and photographing them. It also allows me to do photoshoots when I want to do them, rather than needing to be able to travel somewhere. It gives me great control over the lighting and positioning becasue it will be an indoor setting rather than an outdoor natural setting. Heather's technique is very uniqu and expensive because it involves obtaining a lot of flowers, so if I was to take inspiration from her, it would be on a much smaller scale.
