Prep for Urbanscape Final Piece

After brainstorming ideas I have began to compose some inital ideas and I printed out more photos that associated with these outcomes.

I dressed up as a thug in order to illustrate the harsh dangers faced by many roaming around streets. This enabled wearing stereotypical clothing; tracksuit bottoms, trainers, a hoodie, a cap and a scarf around the face. After uploading the images onto my laptop, I edited some of them to create a gritty texture.

 I was able to take a photo of two of my classmates dressed in hoodies to demonstrate the hooded men that are on the streets.

 This was a photo I captured on a trip to Wales. We were driving through the picturesque national park and stopped off at a spot to take photographs as memories of the mesmorising sites. To our amazement, there was a pile of rubbish dumped on the crisp green grass, ruining the scenery surrounding it. We were so outstounded by this purposeful visual pollution that we took a photo of the scene.

This provides evidence on the miss-use of land and highlights peoples' carelessness for the few natural elements that remain.

 I was able to take this photo the day after it was burnt down. The previous night before the photo, opposite my house, the car was set alight. Flames roared out from within and the firebrigade had to be called to wash out the fire. The damage left behind displayed unusual textures, which I was able to capture.

The photos I captured will help demonstrate destruction and portrays examples of unique textures.
 During one of the school holidays, my family and I decided to go for a walk in Valentines Park. Whilst we were there a lud explosion from nearby drew our attention. As we arrived closer, we discovered that a house close to the park was engulfed in flames. Smoke arrose from the house in mass amounts.

I would be able to use this photo when creating a composition were the buildings are set alight.

 On evening we lit the firepit using the remaining coal from our barbeque and burnt paper (such as religious photos, which we are unable to bin). This created a warm flames which kept us warm, as we surrounded the firepit in our garden.

The image I was able to capture will help me to illustrate buildings on fire.
