We had a talk just before we broke up for Christmas from the curator of Salford Museum and Art Gallery about work she wanted to be submitted for a joint gallery exhibition in April/May. As my original images were more artistic than journalistic, I decided upon two photographs which would work within a gallery environment.
These two photographs more more artistic through their depth of field and soft focus, which I have learned doesn't work with photojournalism. The subject doesn't explain itself, but as pieces of art they are thought-provoking and visually aesthetic. The first image is my favourite from the entire project I have undertaken so far. The depth of field solely rests upon the image that Paul Hallows is drawing as part of his practice, and the composition is central, with the soft focus extending outwards. I chose the shot of a customer looking at Andrew Brook's work as well, because of the colours that the piece exudes. It's eye catching to an audience and people would stop and look at the piece.
