Review and analyse
This picture was taken in surrey quays near the shopping centre. i took the picture because i thought it was a unique sight. this was when i finished my exams i felt like i started fresh and the weather started to brighten up. this depicts london as a whole its beautiful it may look busy but its actually a lonely city. I used my iphone 6s as this was a spur of the moment picture. i focused it on the sunlight so the rays of sun can burst through the shutter. this is a centre point image as all the lines meet in the centre including the buildings and floor. this relates to sense of place as it is where i live it is my habitat. it also relates to my theme nature in the city. it simply depicts the trees in the city.

trickling sunshine
this photo was taken in central london westminister. i took it on my way back from work. again this relates to loneliness which is my theme. the photo only consists of one person in the image. relates to londons beauty. it has sparkly lights and each night the colour of the wheel changes. luckily i was able to catch the wheel when it was red. the shapes consist of curves and line. the structure of the building has complex designs to show of to the tourists and media. edf energy relates to peoples home and sense of place and habitat. this is more of my habitat personally as it the place i work in. its a part of me and what makes me jamila right now.

this image was taken in surrey quays car park right next to the car wash. this was another spur of the moment photo. i always take pictures of things i find beautiful mainly nature. the sun was peaking at the side of a man made structure and gleaming upon the trees only exposing it silhoutte. the sun juxtaposes the sky and turns the cold colours warm so the bottom is warm colours and top cold colours. if you look closely you can see one person walking by the car park relating to loneliness again. i used my iphone 6 to produce this photo. the sun gives energy to many things through solar power. by capturing this image it shows the usefulness of the sun and nature also relating to EDF.

Christmas shoot proposal
I will take my pictures during the day where it shows lots and lots of tourist and nature at its finest. then I will take a night time picture as it will be less busy and crowded. I will also relate it to my style research nature in the city and loneliness.to capture nature individually i will be heading down to stave hill eco park to capture nature in the city. stave hill is right next to surrey quays and in the middle of the city. My location will be westminister. known as the heart of london as it is the main attraction and represents the whole of London. I might juxtapose it and take pictures of the complete opposite such as a deprived area maybe peckham or lewisham. As well as getting the rich side of London i will also be getting the less fortunate sides. where loneliness is inexplicable to the eye. The intricate lives of middle class and the poor will be shown through all of my images. My photos will also be a political statement towards the government showing a blind eye towards those in need. it will show the riches and the treasure the government have and what little the poor have. i will be using using a mixture of things including a canon camera to take proffesional shots. i will be taking them over the holidays so i will need to get a camera in advance so that i am prepared. I will also be using a tripod, this will help my photos to be HD and not blurry. This gives me the opportunity to be still so my camera doesnt move and make it look unprofessional,

Christmas shoot review
My photo shoot went as planned as I was able to go to Westminster/ county hall to take my photos. I went during the evening where I thought it will be a little less busy than it usually is. Unfortunately it did not go to plan and it was really crowded due to Christmas shopping and Christmas tourist attraction. The canon EOS 5D I was using was a bit unfamiliar to me as I usually use the canon 600 D. As I was unfamiliar with the camera I wasn't able to show my full potential at photography. In future reference I will make sure I study the camera I use so I know how to use it properly and make my photos look professional to the best of their ability. My final outcomes were great I believe they portrayed what I wanted, the nature in the city, the loneliness, the beauty. To develop this I will edit my favorite picture on photo shop and manipulate them so it makes my photos unique. I will also contrast my pictures so they juxtapose each other. I want portray the lack of balance in London. Such as the rich sides with poor bits inside them such as Westminster. During the shoot I learned that London is a city for everyone whether you are black, white, poor, rich etc. it doesn't there is always something for you to do here. I saws that there was a skate park for the young people to hang out at and have fun. When it came to me taking pictures of homeless people I asked for permission but they were not willing to take part I offered them money but they still weren't willing. This has to do with loneliness and depression. Most of my images fit in with my starting point but there were a few that went of topic and just caught abstract and pretty images. My images do connect with EDF especially the pictures of fire because they represent fire and nature the two thing EDF stand for. To improve my proposal I will do more research on the area I am taking the photos in so I know what times are good to go and take my photos and what the rush hours times are. I will also provide myself with a timetable on the times I will visit the area and focus on the main starting points ALWAYS.
