Oxwich Castle





 Oystermouth Castle






My problem when visiting Oystermouth Castle, was the weather. It was very bright, and I feel like this could effect my final images.

27. Begin Research.

Begin Research. To begin my research, I started at the very basics. I began with Welsh Heritage, and as shown below, castles are a very large part of Wales' Heritage. The screen shot below is from the 'Visit Wales' website, so it is clear that CAstles are even a part of the Welsh Tourism Industry. http://www.visitwales.co.uk/things-to-do-in-wales/welsh-culture-and-heritage/ I found a large amount of information on this 'Visit Wales' website, yes, granted, the majority of the information is used for tourism purposes, but it is a place to start.  The website has a a small 'recommendation' page of which castles to visit. Top Picks For the Family - One of Britain's largest medieval fortresses, Caerphilly Castle has a big events programme to match. The annual Big Cheese Festival is a favourite - a free weekend of entertainment for all the family that's staged in the castle grounds. For a Fright - Strange things happen at Bodelwyddan Cast...

Image
It is important to research various different styles of documentary photographers, as well as portraiture and various other which I have looked at, there is also the contemporary style documentary photography. Researching this would give me a better idea about how you can push the boundaries of photography.  http://www.vam.ac.uk/content/articles/c/contemporary-documentary-photographers/ I began my research by searching for contemporary documentary photographers on major gallery websites, as the screen shot above shows, the V & A website had the most useful page. It highlighted the work of several recognisable contemporary documentary photographers, these photographers included: Adam Broomberg and Oliver Chanarin, Clare Richardson, Albrecht Tubke, Deirdre O'Callaghan, Roger Ballen, Tina Barney, Donovan Wylie and Allan Sekula. The V&A showed a single image of each of the photographers, but it also included an interview with each one, which was very useful. Out of ...
