Work diary - texture

Work diary - texture:

In this session we was given the topic of texture. In this topic it was quite easy to find different textures as we just had to look further into the things we were taking pictures of like leaves and tiles. I personally enjoyed this topic as I found it interesting to see the same sort of images that we had been taking pictures of but close up and with a different perspective. If I could re-do this topic I would try to be more creative with the things that I was taking pictures of and I would try to be more original.

I think that the picture above and the picture below are my best pictures at showing texture. I think that the picture above shows texture in the different tiles but also in the whole picture as it all has a certain look to it that would be hard to replicate. I think that the picture below is a more original way of showing texture as it shows that the texture has been formed after some of the paint has chipped away. I think that this picture is one of the ways of being more creative with texture, it also shows ore than one style of texture.

I have chosen these two pictures from the internet because I think they both show two completely different types of texture. The photo above is a more defined style and is more natural. The photo below is a more relaxed way of showing texture as I more man made as the stones have been put there by someone.

The photos below show texture. Each of the pictures show a completely different style of texture which shows that texture is not always the same thing. From looking at these pictures I have noticed that it quite hard to duplicate the texture to get the same patter as most textures are natural and cannot be made to be the exact same. The pictures below show the variety in texture and also how it is man made and natural. The texture in photography allows for more details to be expressed in a photo, it allows it to come away from the completely 2D feel and allows for a little bit of edge.

In this image the use of tone helps to make the the cracks in the surface standout. This is effective because each individual crack is noticeable and they all standout together to portray the texture of the surface. The tone enhances the cracks and gives them a 3D feel which makes it look as if some on on  different levels.

The use of colour in this image helps to give a true representation of the object. The close up of the image helps to clearly show what the texture is almost making it look as if you could actually be able to feel the object.

The use of a close up in this image makes the rope in the image look 3D and makes it standout. In this image each individual line within the rope standout making up the texture of the image.

In this image the use of tone enhances the texture. The tone highlights each  individual line and aspect of the weaving. This helps to get a idea of what type of texture the image would have. The angle of this  photo also helps to get a feel for the texture of the image if you was close to it as well as far away.

In these two images the use of colour helps to show the texture. The use of different shades of colour, help to show the different line breaks and parts of each aspect of the photo. This is effective because you can clearly see the build up of the photo and the object. You can also see the aspects of the photo singularly as well as a whole.

Definition post - texture:

Dictionary definition: the feel, appearance, or consistency of a surface or a substance.

Describing words: rough, smooth, bumpy, bubbly, fine, chunky.

This picture shows texture as the photographer has clearler shows the different aspects of the wall and has been able to show that all the bricks are not the same. This picture is a good example of texture as it shows how one object can have more than one texture as all overall texture of the wall is the bricks and each brick has its own texture.

This picture shows more of a general texture as there is only on style of texture in this photo that is just repeated throughout the image. In this picture that texture is in each plank of wood that makes up the floor, and although the textures are not all exactly the same they still show the same idea of texture in the wood.

This picture is a more creative way of showing texture as it has been made by the soles of shoes indented in sand. I think that this picture is good at showing the effect that the texture of the shoes has when it meets the texture of the sand. This picture also shows different styles of texture as it has been made with different shoes to get a different pattern.

This picture shows how a large amount of something in this case stones, can create a type of texture. In this case the texture looks smooth and bumpy because of the fact that the stones dont all fit together in one piece to make a flat picture.

My definition: The way that a surface looks of feels.
