The Hoo peninsula is geographically a very similar landscape Pegwell Bay These 5x4 color landscapes have a muted aesthetic with soft details in the sky which I really enjoy, they offer an insight into how I could produce a color series of images from my location and as part of my project. An insight which interests me but not arrests me. The project is beautiful, but similarly to my project and something I need to be aware of the horizontal and flat nature of the scenes can become repetitive, I feel here we are looking across the peninsula which may have been the idea and concept behind Collins approach but I do want to make a feeling of involvement, an experience for the viewer and therefore my photographs have to contain evidence of the environment and a sense of looking. By tilting the camera down towards the ground and recording the grain of the floor I feel I can relay to the audience the conditions the environment suggests.
This work also feel as if it is the obvious approach, go somewhere and deadpand documentary stepping back including the scene printing it very muted without much lighting and no dynamic finish. This although objective and a very popular traditional viewpoint is something which I feel doesn't sit with my standard approach. I want to create imagery which the audience can feel engaged with, spend time with and work around, therefore I am going to continue my approach. But, I will shoot some film to experiment with incorporating other mediums.
