Task 1 Part 2, Bradford Signage

For the second part of task 1, I was asked to go out into Bradford city centre and take photographs of signage and other pieces of promotional material that I could find that was of the colours Red, Green, Blue, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black. Here are the photographs I took for this part of the project.

This is one of the photographs that I took while photographing signage and other pieces of promotional material in Bradford city centre. This is a photograph of the sign which stands outside if Nandos in Centenary Square in Bradford. I chose to photograph this sign because of its vivid red colour which fit in perfectly with the 'Red' portion of the RGB colour mode. I chose this image out as one of my favourites from this photo shoot because it caught my attention with its cold and vibrant colouring. This image really catches the eye and is appealing to look at. The lighting in this photograph was created by natural light. I feel this works well because the natural light really makes the dominant colour of red stand out.

This is another photograph that I took while photographing signage and promotional material in Bradford city centre. This is a photograph of a black signpost directing the people of Bradford to all of the major nearby landmarks. I chose to photograph this signpost as it is painted black and fits in well with the 'Black' portion of the CMYK colour mode. I chose this image as one of my favourites from this photo shoot because I like the simple nature of the image. This photograph consists solely of the sign post with nothing distracting from the subject matter. On the day that I took this Photograph, the sky was overcast and cloudy, I feel that this works well in this photograph as the overcast sky acts as a blank canvas and provides a neutral background meaning there are no unnecessary distractions such as a blue sky with white clouds. I also feel that the overcast sky works well this this photograph as it almost makes the image look like it has been dropped to greyscale, however there has been no editing done to this image. If I was to reshoot this image, I would try to change the lighting a little and maybe shoot it from a slightly different angle so there is a little more brightness in the image as this photograph appears to be a little dark.
