Foreground and Background

Foreground and background is using apeture to define and contrast between the foreground of the picture and background of the picture. You can use this to photograph the foreground while blurring the background or vice versa, it can also impact their work by through the relationship between the foreground and the background such as a background that doesnt match the foreground or leading the viewers eye to the background from the foreground. Some examples of these are photographers like Bernece Abbott, Tony Ray-Jones and Candida Hofer. Though i like the aestetics of Hofers work i dont think there is much i can develop in this section. 

Framing devices

Framing devices is using objects such as windows, door frames, trees and other stuff to frame a subject in a photo when composing and constructing images. Saul Leiter, John Szarkowski, and Eugene Atget are examples of photographers that use framing devices. This is the section i was most thinking about doimg. I feel like i can develop my work and get inspired the most from these artists.

Juxtaposition

Juxtaposition is is using images or objects that juxtapose eachother to provide comparison or emphasise contrast. you can juxtapose the things in the image or the images themselves. Uta barth, Frank Gohlke and Henri Cartier-Bresson are examples of photographers who use juxtaposition. I was going to choose to do juxtaposition but i couldnt relate my ideas to any of the artists, which would make it hard to develop my ideas.

Angles and Grids

Angles and grids use lines to create and emphasize angles and grids in the photos, you could photograph this by photographing road junctions and interiors or exteriors of houses and buildings. Stephen shore, Andreas Gursky and Zeke Burman are examples of photographers who use angles and grids. I feel like angles and grids is very interesting, but im not sure what i could experiment with in this suject so i didnt choose it.

Objects in spaces

Objects in spaces was inspired by the relationships by the relationships between objects and the places in which they are found. These are usually still life, table arrangements or just objects in specific locations.  Walker Evans, Wright morris, and Andre Kertesz are examples of photographers who use objects in spaces. This subject to me just isnt very interesting because theyre just every day things, and if i dont think its interestimg i cant develop any ideas.
