Seventh shoot write up

Seventh photo shoot write up

Melton Bottom, one of Omya UK Limited’s plants was today’s location. The chalk plant is situated just outside of Melton and Swanland, Hull. Even though it was supposed to be an average weather day I managed to catch the best parts of it once I had eventually got into a good position to see the mine in its entirety. The mine was a fantastic location to shoot because it was a completely brand concept that I’d never photographed before. In shoot I managed to get one portrait and one landscape format image that I liked, which helps them fit into the set of images I talked about in the previous evaluation post. The top two images are definitely the best as they help to deliver the scale of the operation and best highlight the road tracks which look like the veins of the plant. My only concern with these images is that they contain identical subject matter which means that I might have to lose one when I end up submitting the final set of images.







With deadline day fast approaching and the weather forecast becoming increasingly worse I think I will have to draw a line on the shooting and just do one more which will be of housing developments which will better diversify my images in comparison to fracking.
