Exercise 4.2

Brief

 

These images were created on 14th May 2017, they are taken from the balcony of my flat on the 5th floor to explain the high perspective.  My first image was at 08:03 and the last at 19:51.  The canal is orientated approximately north to south, this perspective is facing south towards the river Thames.  The sun rises from the left of frame.

 

Exercise 4.2-1

14/05/17 08:03 At this time of the morning in the summer months sunrise is very early, you can see from the crane at the left of frame shadows are cast across the new building.  The sun has yet to reach the towpath and its still in dark shadow.

 

Exercise 4.2-2

14/05/17 10:40 Mid-morning and the sun has just started to creep into the shadows along the towpath

Exercise 4.2-12

14/05/17 17:43 The sun is beginning to set a large highlight through the clouds in the top right of the frame throws the rest of the scene onto shadow as the camera compensates for the bright light.
