Time Pieces - Part Two


Now, in my last post I said something about a book. Well I created a book along with Graphic Design student, Jonathan Martin of my final images. The books showed photographs of ten final country day images and ten city afternoon/night images starting off with the earliest getting darker as the book goes on. 

I came up with the title 'Time Pieces' because I was working with the two strengths of my project; Documents of time and Photomontage. I also thought that when you think of a time piece, you tend to think of something delicate and dated, much like the media of disposable cameras as everything now is digital, and using a disposable camera is seen as a very dated method of photography. 

I also framed two final pieces; One day photograph and one night photograph. 


I chose these two photographs because I felt the represented each different scene the best. The country photograph shows a woman walking her dog on a quiet and lonely path and the city image shows the funfair part of the German market. I chose this particular photograph because I felt that showing the city as a funfair, especially the carousel represented city the best going round and round without a stop, and just the silhouettes of the people going in and out of the town centre. being so busy that you can't identify anyone. Comparing this to the country image which is much more mellow shows the exact comparison I wanted to create in my project.
