Street Photography Session - Mosta


As part of our assignment (Task 1), I needed to go to the streets of my town and take pictures. Afterwards, I picked out my favourites, analysed them and came up with a design brief.

Below are the outcomes from the favourite photos. The thinking process of the Design Brief will be uploaded on a separate blog post.


 

Photo 1 - Delivering Time

  • Background busy with cars at people - out of focus

  • Capturing one moment in time - Concentrating on just two people out of all that activity.

  • The green backpack - colour outshines the whole background

  • The man next to the food delivery guy is also in focus - shown to be looking/thinking about something.

  • Seems like both of them are pausing the background - one trying to understand by himself, the other seems like is using a 3rd party (mobile phone) to understand better.

 

Photo 2 - Freeze!

  • The starting point should be by remarking that these are all tourists.

    • Why does a tourist come to a place? To visit, leisure etc.

  • The eye contact of the tourists with the red light in focus, the background is not in focus.

  • What are the tourists looking at? The red light, the car which is sideways with the brake lights on? The showroom?

  • The world is dominated by cars, the importance of transportation, but the red lights are what control this domination. Just a lightbulb is able to stop everything.
