London Through The Eye Of A Designer - Contrast Workshop

This was about highlighting the many differences London has to offer.
We were given opposite paired words ie: black/white, long/short, smooth/rough, transparent/opaque...
The aim of the workshop was to create a little booklet which would sort of tell a story using 1 or 2 words.
We worked in pair; I chose transparent/opaque and Amna had smooth/rough.
We went around the college and starting taking pictures; I was quite amazed how much texture is out there.  It was nice to actually have the opportunity to take the time to notice it.

The booklet could only have black and white pictures, using the crop tool only as well as contrast adjustment.

and smooth







This shot was taken through a window; the thing with transparancy is that everything behind it is at full opacity.
