Project 15: Cropping

This project basically asks for three images taken from cropping  images from our own library. I have taken two crops from photos that I would normally find unsuitable. They were almost thrown in the garbage bin. I have cropped them in a panoramic  format that is not standard, the reason for this was that the original frames were unbalance and the clear space was cut in the cropping, I also converted the image entitled "devils dyke west view" to black and white to emphasise the curves of the footpath on the foreground and give more impact to the image. The third image entitled "brighton pink champagne" was already an ok(ish) frame but the cropping enabled me to align the main subject according to the rule of thirds.




















The original file taken at the devil's dyke, an iron age settlement site on the hills of brighton. The photograph was taken at sunset facing west.
