His Photos:

Reflection:

I think Zack is not like other photographers that focus on the aesthetic of the photos. Because he is a street photographer, I think he just try to shows some story from his photographs. I like some of his photographs like people walking and there is a shadow behind them and a solid background. I like it because it is simple and it shows the street photographs.

Week 11 (Water Photography)

Mark Mawson

Background: 

He is a London based photographer with 25+ years experience of producing creative and inspiring images. He specialises in shooting liquids and his colourful liquid work, titled "Aqueous", has become very well known and collectable. An Aqueous video was projected onto the walls of Buckingham Place for The Queen's diamond jubilee concert. He also enjoys shooting underwater fashion and beauty and his non commissioned personal work shows a love of atmospheric, cinematic work. 

His Photographs:

Reflection:

What I like from this photographer is I like the technique to capture the liquid. He uses liquid as a main ideas to do some interesting photographs. The colours and the shapes of the liquid give me the different feeling of each photos. The flexibility of the liquid is also effect our interpretation and our mind. I like the ideas of using the simple thing to attract people. We might always see liquid in our environment but we never realised that all of them has beautiful inside. I think all liquid also have different meaning (sad, happy, curious, desperate, etc.) when it has different shape, splash and colours. 

Week 10 (Vintage Photographer)

Peter Zentjens

Background:
He is a photographers and also a painter. He always been obsessed with expressing his self visually and capturing the beauty of things that he sees. His works mainly divided into 3 art forms : still life photography, travel photography and watercolour paintings.
His favourite way of visual expression is through still life photography. His photographs using vintage, nostalgic look and feel, albeit sometimes with a twist. However, with his experimental nature, his work is not limited to these forms of expression as he always open for new ideas. This has resulted in various other expressions of art from sculpture to t-shirt design.

His photographs:

Reflection:

What I like from his photo is he use vintage effect that make the photographs looks aesthetic. He used brown , red and black color to make the vintage feeling. He also used some old things to shows this is a vintage photo. Light is a main things that he probably will consider if he wants to make a vintage photo. Some photos make me feels like nostalgia things. 

Week 9 (Pop Art)

William Eggleston

Background:
William Eggleston (born July 27, 1939) is an American photographer. He is widely credited with increasing recognition for color photography as a legitimate artistic medium to display in art galleries. Eggleston's early photographic efforts were inspired by the work of Swiss-born photographer Robert Frank and by French photographer Henri Cartier Bresson's book, The Decisive Moment. 
Forst photographing in black and white, Eggleston began experimenting with color in 1965 and 1966 after being introduces to the medium by William Christenberry. Color transparency film became his dominant medium in the later 1960s.
His Photographs: 

Reflection:

William Eggleston is a person who used "POP ART" style in his photographs. He plays with the tone of the colors. He has been produced many books, films, portfolios and monographs. When I see his photographs, I feel like back to past when the pop art is very popular. Where all colors just used solid colors which makes contrast colors between each other. I like his photographs colors and how he just took some simple thing but can make it interesting
