We’re taking photos around the Greenway Centre in Sneinton. Here is my favourite photo.
Photo by Melissa. I like this because of the light behind it and the darkness around it and it’s blurry as well which makes it more interesting. It brings out the beauty of nature.

We photographed after it had rained, so we were looking for reflections and sunlight on the water. Also, we experimented with moving the cameras during the shot. Here are some of our favourite results.

Image by Jamie. I chose this photo because I like how the camera is facing the puddle on the floor, but the reflection is of the trees and the sky.
Image by Jamie. I have chosen this photo because I really like the colours and because the mirrored ceiling makes you think about what is a reflection and what isn’t.
Photo by Alexi. I like this photo because the gentleness of the branches and the roughness of the tree trunk contrast really well- its almost like a collage.
Photo by Kornelija. I like the texture and how the mirror stands out.

Photo by Jo chosen by Nicolle. It made me giggle!
We went to an industrial area. It was photogenic and had interesting structures. It was quite run down but it was quite colourful.
This photo was chosen by Alexi. I like this photo because i like the contrast between the patterns and texture of the tree trunk and the leaves.
This photo was taken by Kornelija, and chosen by Jamie. I like this photo because there is a cloud across the middle of the photo with the sun breaking through the top and bottom of it.
Photo by Kornelija. It has good shapes and I like how it draws your attention to the middle.
Photo by Alexi chosen by Nicolle. I like how the one purple flower stands out against the green.

We’ve been experimenting with using different colour settings and focal points in our cameras. The results can create drama! Here are some of the ones we like best.
Photo by Jamie. I chose this photo because it has lots of the same vertical lines and a good focus that draws your eye into the photo.
Photo by Alexi. I like this because it has good contrasting colours and the focus is in the corner.
Photo by Kornelija. I like the line in the middle of the picture. I like how the focal point is closer and on a line.
Photo by Alexi. Sometimes accidents work really well!
Photo by Kornelija, chosen by Nicolle. I like this for the repetition of trees and then my legs. I like that my feet are high up in the photo, it looks like I’m squashing something with my feet or standing on something big, with the trees really small in the background.

We’ve been photographing around the Hyson Green area. Here are some of our favourite photos so far. We were experimenting with the macro setting on the cameras to take close ups.
Photo by Alexi. I like this photo because it’s dramatic.
Photo by Nicolle. This is my favourite photo because of its different textures.
Photo by Kornelija. This is my favourite photo because it’s a good angle and it tells a story.
