Preparation:
In this shoot, i will be developing on my forest/field walk in shoot 3 and 5- taking more photos of wild flowers and plants
Artist Research:
Andrea Jones:
Raised in the south of England by her Mother who loved gardens and Father who loved photography, she became fascinated and inspired by naturally occurring art forms.
'Trees and plants each have their own character. Many change their clothes depending on the season, some disappear into the ground when the climate changes. Others appear in the warmth of the early morning light, stun me with their beauty and then drop their petals before my eyes. Some refuse to wake up until late and only consent photography in the full sun. I love spending hours getting to know their intimate secrets through my camera lens.'

Editing &A02:
I shot with my Nikon D3500 in a natural setting whilst on a dog walk, so couldn't take a tripod. The settings for my best images are as follows:
Shutter speed= 1/125
Shutter speed= 1/125
Aperture=f/5.6
Zoom=55mm
A03:Record ideas, observations and insights relevant to intentions, reflecting critically on work and progress.
My intentions towards this shoot was to photograph the nature of flowers. I was inspired from my research of Andrea Jones and how her photos can show a misty atmosphere and a focal point with blurred background. The images came out as I expected, however I had forgotten to take my telephoto lens out so I didn't get as much detail as i could have.
With regards to some of the images that did not come out as I expected, some images lacked focus and detail due to not having the time to correctly position my camera or having the right equipment. I believe I can overcome these issues in another shoot if i took my second lens out.

A01: Develop ideas through sustained and focused investigations informed by contextual and other sources, demonstrating analytical and critical understanding.
The artist research was helpful as I realised that there are many ways I could take the topic of plants but how my focus on flowers would highlight my full potential. My research of Andrea Jones helped as it gave me the influence of my pink flower by making the background blurred with the sun shining through, making it look like Jones' orange flower picture as shown above
A04:Present a personal and meaningful response that realises intentions and, where appropriate, makes connections between visual and other elements.
The final images produced were refined by developing the contrast and curves.
