Course 2 Day – Day Four: Natural World

Day Four: “Natural World” — Leading Lines

Today I was tasked with capturing the natural world: snap a moment outside, big or small. From a close-up of a leaf in your backyard to a panorama from your morning hike, we invite you to document this wondrous world around us.

Now at first glance (thought) this seems a very easy project to go out and do, especially when you are living in Spain with its generally rolling sunshine, and people with a sunny disposition.

The problem is the heat – a lot of what you might target for photographs, when considered closely do not give you that oomph that would be expected.

However I persevered and came up with these  shots:

Natural World
Singular Perfection
Natural World - 2
Starburst
Natural World - 3
A Dying Art

Attacked by Pests
Natural World - 5
Gnarled with Age
Natural World - 6
Subtelty of Colour

Natural World - 6
Friends hanging out
Natural World - 7
History cut short
Natural World - 8
In Full Bloom -1

Natural World - 9
In Full Bloom – 2
Natural World - 10
Dying to show

However after consideration when I got back from my safari, I decided that the following photograph reflected the qualities of the assignment – showing natural lines that lead you to different parts of the frame.  The photograph was taken on a Samsung mobile phone with 8 megapixels camera, which rendered a photograph with just over 3Mb, which I have now resized to 2Mb – hopefully without loss of clarity to the brief.  No flash was used, just the shadow and natural sunlight, which I feel makes for a wonderful atmospheric photograph
