Ground level Shot
The key art element here is texture. With the ridged wood line pattern and the smooth look of the car's plastic, these two different types of textures contrast with each other making for a complicated but interesting addition to the image.
What I decided to do here was place the car on the wood, and place the camera on the ground, shooting form behind.
I did this because me being me I like to make miniature objects look realistic.
I feel that I succeeded in trying to make this photo realistic, if not just detailed and was able to fix the issues I had with my ground level photo I took last year. My goal was to have more focus on the figures in frame and I think I did much better here.
I had not learnt much from this photo as I have already taken this type of shot many times before. However, I was able to reflect on my first ground level shot which I took last year.
Next time I would just look around on what is on the ground and see what else I could take a photo of.

Shooting Strait Up
I believe that the main art element here is colour. As I was editing this photo, the thing I changed was the contrast. As I increased the contrast in this photo I was making certain colours like yellow and blue brighter and more enhanced, while other colours like green and grey were darkened and created more shadow.
What I did here was get this toy of bumblebee to stand up on a wooden garden edge, while I had to practically lie down and try to focus the camera while still shooting strait up.
I think I did well with this photo and had improved in this photo as my previous shooting strait up photo was more of a low angle shot.
Here I learnt how different an object can look from underneath.
Next time I would try to take a shooting strait up shot of something else.

Overshot
Here the main art element is texture once more, with the contrast of the detailed and uneven bumpiness of the wood and the smooth look of the car plastic.
I decided to place the two toys in this setup and simply held my camera above the scene.
I decided that I would try to make it look like two cars have had a head on collision, which I think I was successful in dong. I am not sure why I had this idea to try out but I supposes I was happy to try something new.
I am not sure what I have learnt from this, I was definitely trying out something new but I am not quite sure on what I learnt from it.
Next time I would like to try to take an overshot of cars drag-racing, I'm not sure why but I would like to see the results.

Close Up
The main art element in this photo is colour. This truck includes almost all the primary colours. Blue, Red and orange, which is very close to yellow. the amount of colours in this photo adds to the bright happy vibe I get from this photo.
I decided to zoom in on this specific optimus prime toy and get in close on it which keeping the whole toy in frame
I believe that I was successful with making this toy the main focus and how unintentionally real this thing looks
I learnt that sometimes with the right lighting and camera angles, you can make a toy look very realistic.
I would like to take the photo from this position so I don't have to edit and zoom into the photo later, so I can get better resoloution.

High Angle
The main art element in this photo is form. With the angle this photo is on plus the angle you get to see each truck, these two elements combine to make this photo what it is.
I decided to line up these trucks and stand to take the photo on this angle.
I suppose I liked the idea of having these trucks drive in a strait line because I kept taking photos of it.
I was trying to make it look like these trucks were driving behind one another, which I believe was successful.
Next time I would make more of a variety of vehicles driving rather than all trucks.

Reflection:
Which aspects did you enjoy most of the project?
I really enjoyed re-taking all my photos I took last year, as I was able to improve some of them and I got to explore more ways of taking photos.
How did your finished work come out? Are you happy with the results?
I think my finished work came out great, I am really happy with the results and can't wait for the next project. I have become more aware of certain camera angles and how to take better photos on better angles.
If you had the chance to do the project again would you do anything different?
I would not change anything if I had to do it again, as I am perfectly happy with my current work.
