Farm animals- my images


When I approached this field, some sheep were startled then they started walking towards me. I waited for them to walk a bit closer, then I took an image of them. I like that the sheep at the front are looking towards the camera.


I like the way that these two horses are grazing in the same way. i took this, behind a bank of grass, which I think adds an interesting view. I took this image just before it rained, which is why the sky is so grey.



This image is of the same two horses, but I took this one a few hours earlier, when the sky was brighter and the horses were in a different part of the field.


I chased this chicken into this area. I like the look of the metal fence and yellow plastic with the naturalness of the grass.





I took these images on my holga at Bre Pen farm. The flash had run out of battery and it was quite a grey day. i like that these images have a dullish look to them.

Cristina Corduneanu -inspiration


The effect of the deep black tree against the lovely blues and greys of the winter sky is amazing,


I like that these horses are side by side and look very similar. They both have quite a wild look on their faces. I like the use of colour. It's quite vivid and gives the image a very interesting look.



The sky looks amazing in this image. The setting sun gives off strong colours of bright yellows, which fills the dark sky. I think that the composition of this image is great, with the silhouette of the horse and the sun alligned directly behind it.








I've been inspired by another artist called Cristina Corduneanu. I really like the effects of her images. She has a love for horses so they feature in her images quite alot.

Spring - inspiration

These images are from a collection by Alicia Bock called 'Springtime in Paris'. It is a really beautiful collection. I am really inspired by these images.

I love bicycles. i would really like a new bike. I have a chopper but currently it doesn't work. The lighting in these images is really superb. yes, superb is how I'd describe them.


The depth of field makes this image really amazing.


These birds are so sweet.

I have enjoyed seeing the first signs of spring, such as buds beginning to grow, leaves on trees, baby lambs and being in daylight out of college.
after seeing this collection by Alicia Bock, it has helped to entice me into choosing 'Spring' as my overall theme. I would like to photographs farms in the springtime, cornish scenery in the springtime and just general things associated with Spring such as baby animals, budding plants and flowers such as daffodils and bluebells.

Farmyard photography - inspiration


I love the vibrant yellow of the daffodils against the old stone wall.


I like how branches and leaves have grown through the gate.



i love the lighting in this photo, and the sheep grazing on the field.

I have recently come across a photographer for freefoto.com called Ian Britton. He has taken some photographs of farm gates. I really like the look of them.
I love farms. I think that they have a senseless beauty. I love the way of life on a farm, farmhouses and all the animals. They really are a magical place and I love being on them and photographing them.

Alicia Bock - inspiration


These images are all polaroids. I think that they really stunning.


i really love the soft focus in polaroid images. The lighting in this image looks amazing, i love the bright shining through the spider web.







Alicia Bock is a self-taught photographer. She is inspired by her children, childhood memories of her grandparents gardens and old boxes of polaroids. She grew up in Florida, surrounded by water and colour and she is still greatly influenced by tjose two environments.I have been looking at Alicia Bock's work for a while now and I am really inspired by it. Her photographs are the prettiest that I have ever seen and I love her style.
Her photography is the search of light and shadows, pretty things in pink, the feeling of the ocean, and a blue moon. She strives to create photographs that evoke memories of our favourite days. I really like the meaning in her photographs. I love memories and I would like to show them in my own work.

even more polaroids and scarves

I took this polaroid next to a postbox that my friends and I pass to get to a place that we like to hang out in.



I took this polaroid of the boys when we stopped to sit in a hut.




I took this polaroid in Jules' back garden. It was quite a grey day.
