At Work

I was drawn to this image due to its' distinctive angle behind a fisherman casting out his net. I like the use of tone in this image, as I feel that the blue of the sky and sea are nicely balanced for the viewer. A good entry.

I like the unique point of view of this entry. The venetian blinds adds a layer of texture between the subject, the photographer and the viewer. The vertical and horizontal lines give the image balance and structure without detracting from the subject or overall image.

I really like the simplicity and symmetry of this image. The choice of black and white helps to bring out the triangle of light around the DJ and although noise on an image can be a negative in some images, I think that on this occasion it is a positive based on the environment.

The use of depth of field provides a frame is packed with people reflecting the hustle and bustle of a busy outdoor dining environment. The central focus on the waiter getting on with his job drew me to this image as I feel that it captures the documentary aspect of the brief well. A worthy winner, well done.

I like the composition and edit on this image. The use of black and white and contrast really enhances the the light and shadows bringing drama and balance to the image. I especially like the use of depth of field with the silhouetted figure in the background with the table and chairs in the foreground sharp. A clever capture.

I think that this image really captures and documents the moment well. I feel that this image provokes a sensory response as you can almost hear the birds squawking and the sound of the waves splashing whilst they bombard the fishermen for some of the fish that have been caught. A good documentary entry for this brief.

I liked this sharp capture of a herder at work. The edit makes the viewer feel as though there is a storm coming as the dark clouds bring weight and texture to the image. I think that the edit could be possibly be improved if the the saturation / vibrance was reduced slightly. A good entry and understanding of the brief.

I think that this photo is captures the brief extremely well. It documents a time and the shared experience of thousands of key workers in the NHS and across the care sector. The figure in the centre gives perspective against the movement of the doors. I also think that the over exposure in the edit reinforces the sterile hospital working environment.

I liked the strong visual contrast of colour in this image with the painter standing out against the bold blue. I think that the slice of shadow is important for depth and perspective, however I think that this image could possibly be improved by cropping 2/3rds of the white wall out so there is only a strip of white with featuring the painters shadow. A good entry overall.

I thought that the use of negative space in this image was interesting. I like how the action and focus is not in the centre of the image but the edges. I really good capture and interpretation of the brief.

I was drawn to this image because of the simplicity of the composition. The vertical and horizontal lines give structure and texture with the the pop of colour from the underground signage and window cleaners bucket. This is great capture for the brief.

I like this action photo of a window cleaner at work. The sharpness of the soap on the window is nicely balanced against the figure who is blurred just enough for the viewer to be able to recognise what they are doing. A nicely composed image.

I like how the photographer has elected to tilt the camera in the composition of this image. It adds drama and an energy to the image. This use of the Dutch angle works well against an edit that has high contrast.

I thought this image was striking due to the chosen colour palette. The sewer looks almost as if they are under water as the fishing nets surround them and envelope them. I really like the composition and the addition of the white frame adds and draws the eye. A lovely image.
