On this shoot I planned to try and stay out of the subjects way, so the would not know the photograph was being taken. However once I started taking photographs I felt I wanted to get the subject looking at the camera, most people did this anyway. The more photographs I took the more I found myself purposely stepping into the way of the subject or walking up to subject while taking their photograph, I found their reactions quite interesting as everyone reacted differently to the camera.
These are some of the photographs that I like from my first shoot, I have played around with the colours slightly in photoshop. I wanted to try using colour in a similar way to Martin Parr, quite garish and bright.
I am quite happy with these photographs, I want to carry this approach on but try to photograph a mixture or people with different ethnic backgrounds as I feel this would best represent the 'Seeing the World' theme.
