Art Show photography

The children [year 4 and 5] collected numerous natural objects that interested them such as rocks, grasses, sand, leaves, pebbles, shells, sticks, bunny tails, bark etc

The items were arranged in any style or shape they wanted - they had to consider pattern, texture, tone and background as well as lighting and shadows

Considerations also had to be made for layering 

The creation was photographed from different angles and using macro and super macro on the digital cameras

They also used various tricks to get different perspectives and often had buddies to create a background if needed to change the lighting or block out the backgrounds of unwanted objects

They used iPhoto to boost the colour or change to speia or add a vignette effect

The finished creations were then whittled down to between 3 - 6 chosen images and arranged on a WORD doc for display and printed onto photo quality paper
