OCA – People and
Place
Exercise 21: Making
Figures Anonymous
For this exercise it required that you include a person or
persons in a particular place, but make them unrecognisable and less prominent.
A Nikon D800 camera and a Nikon 24mm-70mm lens were used
during this exercise.
Photograph 1 – Borough
Market, London
This image was taken very early one morning on my arrival to
London. The figure to the left of the image is faceless, unrecognisable. The
figure does have a subsidiary role within the image, showing scale and provided
life to this image of Borough Market before opening time.
Photograph 2 – Tate
Modern, London
This is the main transient route through the Tate Modern,
showing the lifts, stairs and escalators. The figures in the background provide
a sense of scale, but are too far away to recognise.
I believe the two photographs are successful in providing
anonymous figures within an image.

Exercise 22: Balancing
Figure and Space
The aim of this exercise was to produce two images, using a
general viewpoint and composition, varying balance of attention between the
person and the setting they are in.
A Nikon D800 camera and a Nikon 24mm-70mm lens were used
during this exercise.
Photograph
1
This image was taken in London on the South Bank and I could
see the balance between the person standing in the lower left and the metal
wall leading away through the image, to the entrance of the Hay’s Galleria and
the heavy walls of the building.
Photograph 2
The balance of the foreground person, background bin and the
space to the right make this composition work.
I believe the two photographs provide the viewer with a
balanced image.
