Pinhole Camera Experiment - Own Photographs

After the first attempt at using the pinhole camera as an experiment to capture photographs for this unit, I decided to try this experiment once more. This attempt worked relatively well, especially considering the last attempt didn't work out, producing no photographs. The photographs shown within this post show the results of this experiment.

The photograph shown above is out of focus which has resulted in the photograph being blurry. However despite how out of focus and blurry this photograph it it does work relatively well as you can still what has been captured and this is due to the shadows allowing the contour to be further enhanced.  The photograph captured is more focused within the foreground compared to the background which is due to how capable the camera is at capturing large distances. This also depends on the exposure time of the camera, the longer the exposure the less amount of blurriness.The photographs shows a sense of direction as this captures the track and its vanishing point. The black and white effect created focuses on using the colour to create the different tones, the light source within the location also affects this as this helps to create shadows and highlight different areas.

This photograph shows an exposed appearance as the colours aren't settled within the photographs, creating an unbalanced of white within the photograph. This has impacted the photograph as it has further increased the blurriness of the photograph due to the colours not be settled. The light source within the location would also affect the final outcome as this is combined with the exposure time used to capture the photograph. Therefore this has effected the contour as the objects found within the background are less obvious due to the colour white being spread across this area. 

This photograph works relatively well as I think that the photograph contains the right amount of out of focus, creating blurriness within the photograph. I think this is due to the different elements found within the location as the blurriness allows you to look at the different elements due to the different tones created, even though these aren't clear within the background I still think this works well. The composition is one of the first aspects I looked at when viewing this photograph. The composition could be further improved by holding the camera straighter as it seems that the camera was held on a slight angle due to the position of the track on the left side of the photograph. The photograph captures the sense of direction due to capture the shape of the track and its vanishing point within the photograph. The out of focus effects gives the photograph an old and vintage appearance to it and especially as this is black and white as the first photographs had the same quality.
