New York Experience #1 light abstraction

Within these photographs I aim to show

I liked the way in which the lights in the tunnel blurred as they allowed for me to show the reflection in the glass giving the image another layer and showing depth within it.

With this shot I found that the smeared glass a distorted and distanced effect with the intense light spots showing more contours of the smears.

I find that the blurred light gives another layer to these images and I feel that they would create some nice overlays if I used them within cello tape transfers within collages or compositions to add depth to my work.

I found that the higher that I got the more difficult it was to get a clear photograph without the lights blurring, however you can still sometimes make out what the forms of the buildings are.

I find that these photos that I have created appear to be of the same style as Alexandra Pacula who creates distorted photographs within densely populated areas like London or New York, a similar context to my shots.

I found that with the strong sunlight those who had the novelty hats looked like the statue in their shadows cast onto the stone.

I like how the movement of people has blurred and the focal point i was trying to capture has remained clear and in focus allowing the movement to appear distanced from the rest of the piece almost as if it was another layer added after its capture.

I like how the light blurs appear to be overlaying the skyline as you can still make out the outlines of the buildings and the light lines move above it.

i find how the defined edges of the light have blurred has allowed the photo to appear out of phase but also with all the light sources intensified giving the appearance of more white light as oppose the the yellow hues that were present.
