I took this when I was on my way to morrisons to get some food. i'm not really sure what it is, but I liked the way it looked. I think that someone just threw this dirty rug onto the pavement and it just happened to go onto some flowers. I love that they are peeking through. They look so pretty and delicate against the mangy rug.


This young girl ran frantically past me, so I decided to photograph her running whilst her back was turned. I like that there is a driving car in the image and the framing of the bushes and trees.



I really liked this single pink flower. I think that it looks pretty, growing up a white wall and with all the other plantation around it.


This is my most edited image. The white flower is really bright, against the dark green grass. A bit too bright maybe?



I took this image of my hand picking a small purple flower. I like that the flower head is in my grasp.



I liked the look of this white and pink flower growing out of this bush.



I like how the sky and sun illuminate this image.



I took this image of purple flowers quite close up.


I decided to not edit these images to much because I really like the natural effect of holga images and I didn't want ot take that away. Some of these image are quite dark and look as if they were taken at night, I quite like that effect. These images have been inspired by Betsey Ramage's images of flowers and plants and by Vicki Barnes images of flowers

Betsey Ramage- inspiration

I like the bright lighting on the flowers and the shallow depth of field, so that only the flower is in focus. The flowers look so delicate and pretty against the blurred background of the stems and leaves.


I really like the composition in this image. The two yellow, bright flowers look so pretty against the deep green leaf.


Again I love the depth of field in this image. The sunflower looks so bright and summery. I like how the sunflower isnt perfect, with one of its petals drooping. This connotes that something doesn't have to be perfect to be beautiful.


I love the colour of the sky, the way the blue fades into a soft orange. The silhoutted trees and mountains look great.

Vicki Barnes -inspiration

I have recently come across a young artist called Vicky Barnes. I quite like her photography, especially her polaroid and holga images. I like her style and the cameras that she uses.
