Texture Work Diary
In this lesson i made i made an image back on texture which included images that effectively showed texture. I then went out to shoot texture by using the light to clearly show the texture.



Here are my most successful images as they both use the light effectively in emphasizing the texture. They are both of a tree trunk and the rough texture that they have.




The first image is showing the texture of the tree trunk to be bumpy and rough. The angle that i have taken it at allows the audience to see the texture well

The second image is of a branch on a tree. The light hitting the branch had enabled me to show the texture in the image as it shows the individual bumps within it.

If i was to continue with texture i will always insure that i am using the light appropriately and that it emphasizes the texture effectively.

Texture Image Bank

 These first three images are effective in showing texture as they have used the light to emphasise the the bumps and groves within the image. In the first image, only sections of the wall have light on them, meaning that is only them sections that are showing the texture clearly. In the second image the image has been taken at angle which allows the audiences to clearly see the individual gaps between the bricks in the wall. In the third image the light is directly on the orange rock which allows the texture to be seen clearly. Each slate in the rock is easily defined due to the direct light source. All of these image show a rough and bumpy texture.

 In this image of the leaf you can see a smooth texture. This is shown by the the direct lights which makes the leaf appear smooth and shining. However the leaf does have some indentations in the leaf which is made by the veins within the leaf.   In the second image you are able you are able to see the texture of the tree trunk which appears to have layers which is showing by the light hitting it at a certain angle.

In this last image you can see the texture of the whole wall which is the gaps between the bricks. Also you can see the texture of the bricks them self. You can see the bumps within the bricks due to the light coming across the wall making the bumps in the brick clear for the audience to see.

This image is showing a rough, bumpy texture. The low angle at which the photograph has been taking at, you are able to see the individual bumps with in the texture which makes look how it would feel if you was touching it. The subtle colours allow this photograph to just be focus on the texture and nothing else. Also the lighting is playing a part in showing the texture in a way in which it is hitting the object in a specific way to create a shadow. This makes the texture more easier to see for the audience.

This photograph is showing the texture on a leaf. The close up of the leaf shows all the individual crease on the leaf. This texture looks like it is rough due to all the deep creases in the leaf. The fact that the photograph is taken straight on and you can still easily see the different elements of the texture shows how deep each of the individual creases are and maybe how long it has taken for this texture to form.

This photograph is showing the skin of a starfish, which appears to be rough by the individual circle bumps covering the starfish's skin. Also the lighting is playing a part in showing the texture in a way in which it is hitting the object in a specific way to create a shadow. This makes the texture more easier to see for the audience along with the use of a low angle.

This photograph is of a roll of hay. The texture of the hay appears to be dry however fairly soft by the way it is able to rolled up. The brownness of image is further showing the dry texture of the rolled up hay. In this image, i can almost imagine what the hay actually feels like through the way this photograph is portraying the texture.

My definition of texture is the way of showing how something feels within a photograph.
