John Berger – Ways of Seeing
All quotes unless otherwise noted are from John Berger’s programme ‘Ways of Seeing (Berger, 1972). It was frustrating not being able to get hold of his book of the same title, so I was especially pleased to find the BAFTA award-winning documentary ‘Ways of Seeing’ available on YouTube. Being dyslexic, I also found this a moreContinue reading “John Berger – Ways of Seeing”
Notes on Assignment 5 – reworked
In response to tutor feedback about tying my photographs to form a cohesive series I did some further research on Displaying Photographs and Linking Photographs. From this research I made the following alterations: Added an explanatory title -‘Saying Goodbye To A Difficult Year’ Changed two of the photographs Used colour to link the photographs andContinue reading “Notes on Assignment 5 – reworked”
Displaying photographs
My tutor had also mentioned how the layout of photographs, how they are presented, affects their meaning. The mode of communication allows the photographer to direct the viewer and decide the viewer experience. Where we encounter them matters. Before the digital revolution, photographs like paintings before them, would have been more or less unique. Each could beContinue reading “Displaying photographs”

In response to Assignment 4 my tutor suggested I consider how the glassware of Alvar Aalto was displayed online.

The background of the pageContinue reading “Displaying your wares”
Linking photographs
I can’t be alone in finding it difficult to adequately display photographs on a website. Apart from the fact that I’m still in the toddler stage of photography, I fall on my bum quite a bit but still keep going, I also struggle with my lack of website building knowledge and the limitations that imposes. I’dContinue reading “Linking photographs”
Jitka Hanzlová – Forest
Hanzlová was forced to leave her native Czech village in 1982. She found herself in Germany knowing little of the language or the place and The Forest records her return to the forest of her childhood and probably not surprisingly she ‘has created an oeuvre that engages with notions of belonging and alienation.’ (Tejeda, I. and Tejeda, J. 2012).Continue reading “Jitka Hanzlová – Forest”
Homage – Fay Godwin
Exercise 5.2 Fay Godwin was a landscape photographer. She did big skies, clouds, played with reflections in water, noted gleams of light but importantly, she captured meaning in her images. In an interview with Photographic Historian and her friend, Roger Taylor (2010), he notes that Fay had initial aspiration to be a documentary photographer, she then enteredContinue reading “Homage – Fay Godwin”
The Distance Between Us
The distance between the inspiration for this series of photographs and myself is time and space; the connection trees.
Notes on Assignment 3 Reworked
I made the following alterations to this assignment following tutor feed back – I explored and rearranged the order in which I have presented the images. Discussion here had focused on how each of the photographs leads through the going down of the light and the subsequent end of the day. With this in mind,Continue reading “Notes on Assignment 3 Reworked”
