After todays 1 on 1 meeting my with lecturer (via Zoom), I’ve got all the image that I need to put my book together. I was somewhat saddened that due to the current restrictions we’re all under, it’s not necessary to have the book printed for college, however, I will be printing it out at a later date for my own/client benefit.
During the progress of this Documentary series of “Hands”, has given me multiple ideas of other projects to work on after all/most the restrictions have been lifted, and will finally be able to interact with more people for a wider base of photos.
Below are some of the final images that I’ve working on.
With all that is going on in the world today, I hope that everyone has had a great day with their families/loved ones during these difficult times. Over the next few days, I will be able to relax and not think about things for a change.
Hope you all have a Festive Christmas and have a Happy New Year in 2021, lets hope next year will be the start of something great, and get some form of normality back on track ;D
All hands on deck… as the project has a final purpose and focus, there have been some positives and some negative within the planning stages that has been involved.
After researching several “Behind the Scenes” ideas of Animal rescue, World of Wings, hairdressers/barbers, and churches, I had come to the realisation that it wasn’t going to be easy and not to go with my first choice but to go in another direction.
As the restrictions of Covid continue, this has limited my access to lots of places, and people occupations, so… the focus should be smaller and more simpler. After lots of thinking and working my around the restrictions, I found a topic of focusing on people’s hands and what their profession/hobbies are. I found 2 photographers to get inspiration from, as their work is truly amazing in the fine arts.
My 1st photographer is Tim Booth, his hands project called “Show of Hands”.
My 2nd photographer is Antonio Arcos , who has great working with people and the fine arts of arms/legs displays in shapes.
Hopefully my photography skills will be up for the challenge to produce a “coffee table book” at the end and something to be proud of when other people look at it, so that they can be inspired with their own idea. I have made several strides for occupations and hobbies from people, as my next post will be discussing the different ideas of “hands on” photos.
