Will probably going to consist of mostly photography...
So like, saturday I'm going round Lisa's to take more photographs for my flash film and then if I have time I might also take some photographs of her to make another joiner. That's the plan anyway. On sunday (hopefully) I plan to take photographs of Kat and Pepe to finish off my portrait week. I have a very strong feeling that Kat won't come because she will probably be ill...So if that happens then I will probably either work on my blog, work on my film or take more photographs for the joiner week. Either way, photographic things are gonna happen ;)

5. It's been over a week.
Since I posted something here.
As the photos go I'm actually up to date still, but I really need to write about them. And write stuff about the meanings...For my portrait week I have asked all my models to not come wearing make-up. I'm like, going for that whole natural look rather than a great big beauty fest. I also have only got rid of really bad spots. I've left moles and all that jazz. It's just, spots aren't great. Besides, they come and go so it's not like I'm getting rid of anything that's permanent. I haven't dressed them up, they have all come wearing whatever they felt like putting on that morning. I also haven't used a white background for any of my subjects. I am planning on continuing this when I do another shoot over the weekend. I just felt like a change.
We've also started doing joiners. Since I did photography last year I have already been introduced to them, and I might even upload the one I did for AS. (That's if I can find it). Because I didn't really enjoy it the last time, I wasn't very keen on the idea of doing it again but I did it again anyway and have found that I really enjoyed putting it together. So...think I've found something else to do for a week.

4. Plans And That.
Hmmm, what to upload this week..
I'm probably going to work on the portraits for a while, and upload them on either the fifth or last week. I only need one more image for the Landscapes, but I think I'm also going to work on the out of focus idea and see how it goes. So, if it goes badly then I can just start off with something else. Simple.
So...Water, Landscapes, Portraits, Buildings and Out Of Focus. Five ideas, just need one more...Ahh well, got plenty of time will just have to keep my eye out.
Roads maybe?

3. A Little Bit Extra.
Today I went to Port Isaac to try and add to one of my projects.
And to be perfectly honest I'm only happy with one of the images, but I have uploaded a few just to see whether they will grow on me. I'm also gonna look out around where I live and see if I can get a better shot to replace them.
I'm finding it much easier taking photographs for different projects at seperate times rather than starting a new project every week. I've already started on my portrait project, which will probably take more time due to waiting for subjects to be free. I'm hopefully going to be taking more pictures for this particular project next friday.

2. Week One Went Sorta Like This.
Finally managed to upload one weeks worth.
My first group of photographs has been based around water. I took images of the sea, the foreshore, a river, a reservoir and a harbour. I think that the combination works very well together. It shows how we have manipulated water for our own use and also how it has control over us. For example, Crowdy Reservoir is where everyone in my area gets their water from and the river down at Vallency Valley has been widened due to previous flooding. Whereas, the sea controls when people visit St. Michaels Mount.
I have also uploaded some work in progress. Four under 'Landscapes' and three under 'From Door To Door'. I am planning to go to Port Isaac for more images on buildings as I probably won't go back to St. Ives any time soon.

1. These Ideas That I Have.
The Brief:
At least five images, every week for the next six weeks.
Okay, so I have a few ideas but I haven't really planned them yet. Seeing as for all the other projects so far, I have always focused on Portraiture, I would like to explore Landscape. But I don't want this whole project to be based purely on the land. Haven't thought of a theme for people yet though.
Currently I have taken a few images at St. Ives, St. Michaels Mount, Tintagel and Padstow and am interested in making more from the same places.
Here are some rough ideas so far:
Water
My Home
Buildings
Tools
Out Of Focus
Landscape
Alleys
Portraits - basic ones, without all that make-up.
So let's get it started ;)
