We looked at W. Eugene Smith this evening and his Country Dr photo essay, this is what we need to achieve for our week in a life project. The class also looked at similar styles of documentary photography and Roger told us that we need around 6 photos for this project. For the environmental portrait we only meed the 1 photo.

While in London we went to the Natural History Museum and the Getty Gallery just of Oxford Street .The Getty Gallery were showing work by Bret Hardy - Picture Post Legend, the exhibition was free which was a bonus. Bret was a self taught photographer and worked for the Picture Post magazine. Bret was also a war photographer who cover the D-Day landings, the Liberation of Paris and the allied advance across the Rhine. The exhibition is on now until the 5th October 2013, well worth a visit and the Getty Gallery is a very nice Gallery to view Bret Hardy work.

Street Photography 

10/9/2013

Went to London for a couple of days and thought I would try some street photography while I was there. I took my Fuji x100 which I bought especially for this, it's small, light and I don't have to think about which lenses I need to pack as its a fixed lens. I love the x100 as its light, it doesn't stick out like my DSLR and much smaller. I used aperture priority mode while walking about so didn't have to think about ISO or shutter speed. Overall I enjoyed the experience and next time I go out to do street I want to have a theme to follow, instead of just snapping away. I didnt try and get any candid portraits as I need to build my confidence but tried to get some moments.
