My first ever Photography Project =D
 

So I'm taking a photography course at Uni this semester. I've always loved photography, in fact I was about to go for Journalism, but never had much experience with cameras, so I wasn't too sure how I'd do. We haven't done any professional stuff yet, just letting our imagination go creative and see what comes out of it.

This here is a project I have to hand in on Wednesday. The title: Green & Red.

I think it was a Nikon D300 I took these with, not sure since the camera isn't mine (got it borrowed from Uni).

The reason why they're rather simple: they had to be taken at a market and there could be no people in them.

Prawns&Limes.


Limes&Tomatoes.


Tomatoes&Pears.


I have written a whole paper on them I would glady attach but it's in Catalan and can't be bothered to translate into English, not that you'd be too interested in reading it either lol

PS- The unfocused bits are so for a reason, just in case anyone thought I couldn't get the focus right ;)

... think I'll get a pass?

I do!!! I think there pretty cool pics

Did you put the limes next to prawns, or everything was that way when you took the pic.?

Nope, that is the way it was placed when I took the picture, I wasn't allowed to modify anything cause it wouldn't have looked natural and spontaneous.

Thanks Eiri ^^

Oh I see. Whell then I'm sure you'll pass, the pics are great.

But from a different point of view, if I was your teacher/professor, I'd definetly ask you one question: Why did you make pics only with fruit and vegetables (except the first one,but still it also has fruit in it to), markets are big, couldn't you find anything else except fruit and vegetable?

Damn, I wish I had a camera like that >_< The quality is amazing.

These are really good ^^

I take it you haven't been to many markets x) Food is what you mostly find being displayed, it's basically just fruits, veggies, meat and fish. Meat is red-ish but not quite the tone of red I was after; fish: prawns was the only red stuff I saw. Fruits and veggies: tones of red and green; I tried apples several times (I actually took 75 photos in total, from which I had to pick three) but none came out too well, I even photographed peppers, strawberries, watermelons, etc. But I think those three were my best captures. It doesn't matter what's in the pictures but how the shot was taken, the different techniques you used, the equipment used and how it determined the result, etc.

Got 600€? If you do then it's yours :p and thanks <3

Suki, the focus is amazing!
I've been wanting to get a nice kind of camera like that for a long time.
Your pictures are wonderful! ^_^

Well I guess our markets are a lot more different than the ones in Spain.

OK, one last question and I won't bug you anymore. Well you showed us what a great photographer you are, so that avatar of yours, did make you that pic.?
