FULL 798 CONTACT SHEET – photos labelled with time and minute

YELLOW SELECTION – My 50 Photos

These photos have been chosen for my yellow selection for multiple reasons. Throughout the 798 trip, I had a strong focus on shadows and industrial silhouettes, but I also looked for the strong contrast of the orange architecture against blue sky. These styles were similar to my chosen photographer Keld Helmer-Peterson, who preferred sharp contrasts. Furthermore, I also selected two pictures inspired by Uta Barth, whose unfocused shadows I tried to learn from. I think this yellow selection was also able to identify photos that were successful, which means that they were the best one out of multiples I took.

GREEN SELECTION

With the green selection, I tried to look at how some photos would look in black and white as that had been the style of my photographer during that time period. Furthermore, I chose these photos with the intention of compiling into triptychs, so I focused more on ones that had things in common. For example, I looked at color, texture, and shapes. I noticed ones that had an architectural feeling to them, and also those that were more about shadows.

RED SELECTION

These photos are part of my final few and are the ones that I will use for my triptychs. I think that many of these photos are able to capture the architectural atmosphere of 798, while also featuring strong contrasts and shapes that bring out the style of my chosen photographer.
