A level Photography

A1
This is my final image from my A level Photography exam. I used methods inspired by Bill Armstrong to create images which are taken of the computer screen with the camera. The pixels can be clearly seen, degrading the image to a lower quality. I focused on the aspect of drones with cameras and reporters who don't portray things correctly. This image was taken in a studio with a toy gun and edited by inverting and adding grid lines, then taking a photo of this on screen.It looks like a war photo.

A level Photography

This image is a double exposure from a scanned in photo of me as a child and a photo taken with low key lighting in the studio. The image is mild, this shows my personality as a child, but the poses are quite striking and unusual, showing my confident behavior now. I think the images work so well together because of the slight bit of background showing through gives a sense of place and time, the date on the image shows how long ago the image was taken and how old I was which I really like.
