This is my first attempt at my final project idea on the word “synchronicity”.
I will be re-doing these photographs as they are not 100% what I wanted to achieve. For starters, I want to do these images in lower lighting to create a more eery and ghost-like effect. I also need to change my composition as they are a little wide and can easily become stronger images by focussing on the groups of people rather than their surroundings. Also in some of my images they aren’t straight, which can be sorted in photoshop afterwards, but hopefully I won’t need to with my second lot of images. I started practising my long exposure at a busy walkway, then moved to the train tracks where I wanted to do my final project, and experimented with the movement of the trains to create an almost see through effect. I have decided to only take photos at the train tracks as each long exposure is completely different and tells a story within itself. I believe it fits in with my theme very well and doesn’t need extra locations to tell my story further. I will make sure the train tracks are busier next time and focus more on the people instead of their surroundings.
