Week 5 - B&W Film

for my 5th week I did a Black & White Film shoot. My chosen location was at my local church In St Columb Major. For a change I thought It would be good to use a disposable camera Instead. I liked the Idea of this but unfortunately the day was abit overcast and It was quite late therefore my pictures werent as good as I hoped they would. I like the pictures themselves, I think the church yard was a very good location as Is It a magnificant building with many quirky features.

This one was way too dark as you can tell, but you can still see the shapes of the tower and the trees. I like the angle I took It at. I would definately like to go back and try another shoot of this soon.


I like this one the best, the door doesnt look very small but actually It was tiny, I thought It was cute and quirky. I chose this one because of the stone work around the archway. The door Itself Is about 4 Inches thick.


I liked the shape of this corner around the back of the church. I also like this door, they all seem to be different and hand made many years ago. I liked that It was on a corner not a flat wall. You cant see them as Its too dark, but there were a few Gargoyles either side of the door at the top, I thought these made It Interesting and a little bit scary.


This was one of the last photos I took but Im glad I noticed It as I thought It was rather odd. There was an old tomb but there was a massive tree root coming out of the side and forching the lid up. You cant see much of the detail but when I go back and take anothe shoot here I will make sure I capture all of It. I chose to do IT at this angle so you could see Inside the tomb and also see the root.


This on Is of a rusty old drainpipe running up the side of the big tower, covered In Ivy. I took It very low down to try and get all of It In. The Ivy almost looks like barbwire wrapped around It. You cant see the Intricate design of the Ivy or the rust bubbling up and flaking off the pipe. I enjoyed shotting at this location and will be back there very soon.
