Contact sheet and evaluation 3

I think with this contact sheet I responded well as I managed total my images in the dark which I think turned out well as it give the effect of things fading away even more. I also really like that in some of the images they are a bit blurry from where I have moved the camera but I think this is a positive more than a negative as it makes the image look better in black and white. I think that my most successful images were images 2 and 24 I think number 2 as it doesn't so much look like a walkway its just an opening and I think that it looks better and there is also a contrast in the colours with the darker colours from the walls and then the green, and I also think this would look quite nice distorted. I like image number 24 as the bright light from the car takes away from the image and you can't tell what it actually is, I think this also goes well with my theme as it is about forgetting and memories fading. I decided to change my theme slightly to making it about forgetting memories and just forgetting in general and I can show this by editing them in photoshop to make them seem like the images are disappearing.

File format

JPEG - jpeg stands for ‘ Joint photographic experts group ‘ digital cameras compress raw photographs as jpeg images to make the files smaller in size, it is the most common file format for photo storage TIFF - tiff stands for ‘ Tag image file format ‘ tiff files do not compress to make for smaller files, because they are meant to preserve quality. They are higher quality images. PSD - psd stands for ‘ Photoshop document files ‘ and they are mostly used in adobe photoshop, they usually contain just the image but they also contain any layers or edits done within the file. RAW - a raw file is a file that has not been compressed, encrypted or processed, they are usually large in size as it is the rawest file of the image.
