2) I took this photo at the EIS in Sheffield, of the Sheffield Sharks basketball team when they were playing the London Lions. I tried to set the camera focus to the player who was with the ball but this was difficult to maintain as the players were moving so quickly. I had the aperture at f/3.5, this is so that more light was let in as I was taking the photos indoors with only in-natural light to light up the scene. I set the ISO to a high level of 5000 so that more light was able to be let into the lens, making the picture of higher quality. I used a very quick shutter speed of 1/640th of a second so that I could capture the players in motion, without any blurs in the image. The photographic technique that I have used in this photo is narrative, the players tell the story that the Sheffield player is wanting to score a basket but the London player is trying to block him off. This image fits the brief of Sheffield as it is showing something that Sheffield is known for in the sporting world, basketball, in action.
3) I took this photo at Endcliffe Park, in S11. I tried to focus on the snowman at the front of the image, giving the photo a shallow depth of field. However, this was difficult to accomplish as I was only using a small digital compact camera to take this photo. I didn't set the aperture, ISO or shutter speed for this shot but the image has an aperture of f/3.5, an ISO of 200 and a shutter speed of 1/1000th of a second. The photographic technique I have used in this image is composition. I tried to arrange the different items in the photo so that they were all visible for the viewer to see. The parts I tried to arrange were the snowman, the café in the background, the trees and the grass. This image fits the brief as it shows of Sheffield's most popular parks in a setting that most people wouldn't imagine when thinking of this location.
4) I took this photo outside the old Henderson's Relish factory on Leavygreave Road. I tried to focus on the centre of the building, this is so that the orange sign was able to stand out more against the bricks of the building. I had the aperture set at f/4.0 and the ISO level at 200. The photographic technique I have used in this photo is composition. I can infer this from the fact that I have directly centred the building in the middle of the shot, allowing daily life to pass by around the sides. This image fits my brief as the Henderson's building is one of the most iconic scenes of Sheffield.
5) I took this photo on Ecclesall Road. I used a different technique when taking this photo. To create this effect I set the camera to a longer shutter speed of 8 seconds, started off by having the lens zoomed in and then as the camera was capturing the image I started to zoom out until the 8 seconds was up. I set the aperture to f/16.0 and the ISO level to 50. I didn't use a photographic technique when taking this image, I was only experimenting with a new method of taking pictures. I am vey pleased how it turned out however, it is certainly a unique image. The photo doesn't necessarily fit the brief of Sheffield, but if I were to use this as one of my final photos, I have an idea of how I would be able o enhance it to make it suitable.
6) I took this photo in Sheffield city centre by Hallam University. I tried to focus on the bikes and the rack wen taking this photo, giving it a shallow depth-of-field. I set the shutter speed to a relatively quick shutter speed as I was aiming to create a blurry effect in the background while maintaining the foreground in focus. I set the aperture to f/4.0 and the ISO level to 100. The photographic technique that I have used in this photo is format. I have arranged the parts in this image by using a landscape orientation so that all the parts that I wanted to fit in the foreground and the background I was able to fit in.
