WHAT DO YOU MOST ENJOY ABOUT LANDSCAPE PHOTOGRAPHY? When it comes to landscapes, sometimes what you see in a photo is not always the same as what you witness in person. I love the challenge of capturing the real beauty of something and the feeling of what you see in real life. HOW HAVE YOU BEEN LEARNING? I have taught myself a lot of what I know through a bit of trial and error mixed with a lot of research. But I have recently been learning a lot about photography and digital manipulation from my art teacher in my classes at school. WHAT HAVE YOU STRUGGLED WITH THE MOST? I have greatly struggled with finding time to go places where I want to take photos. I’m always looking for new things to photograph. I love landscapes and I try to capture some easily accessible landscapes more than once, but I love capturing new things. Initially, this slowed me down, and I found myself doing less photography. Because of this, I decided to do some research and look on social media and found some other styles of photography that I enjoy that I don’t have to go far to find, such as taking photos of my dogs. TELL US ABOUT YOUR FAVOURITE PHOTOS… A few of my favourite photos are pieces of digital manipulation. I created these as part of a school assignment that required me to show a level of compositional and technique exploration. I looked at other artists who manipulate their photos digitally and started trying it myself which opened up a world of possibilities, particularly how I can continue to manipulate and develop my photography beyond the lens. I see this work as a combination of photography and design. I have two favourite photos from this body of work. I like the landscape image (top left) with two inverted shapes with people in the foreground. Although it is simple, it has a nice composition with striking colours contrasting nicely to make the composition balanced. I also like the duplicated circle photo (bottom left) because it has a sense of movement and a visually appealing focal point. WHAT’S NEXT FOR YOU? I think I will always continue with photography as it is one of my favourite things and brings me so much enjoyment. I’m still unsure whether photography will affect my career choices in the future, but I do know that I still have plenty more places to go and adventures to have to find those perfect pictures.
