AV and TV 

This photo I've taken uses the AV mode which allows you to change the aperture whilst the camera changes the shutter speed. The effect overall gives a shallow depth of field, then shows all the finer detail of the flower and the delicate rain drops. I like the vibrant contrasting yellow and greens and like how it emphasis's on the flower then the background is blurred.

Focus Points 

In this photo I set the focus point to the centre so that this would be in focus then around the outside it would be blurred, overall it work fairly well as the detail in the middle is shown to develop this further i will try other points of focus and different settings.

HDR High Dynamic Range 

This was one of my first attempts of HDR which overall I think makes the whole thing look quite artificial and too exaggerated which is what its supposed to do. But on the other hand i do like the finer detail that comes out when you do this effect as it gives in depth texture which sometimes a camera doesn't show to its full.

Chaos & Order 

Kirsty Mitchell

This photo by Kirsty Mitchell reflects my chaos theme with the overgrown forest and the intertwining branches, the figure in the distance also shows order with the well dressed figure which gives a more serious and sole feel. 

Gursky 

This famous photo called Rhein links with my theme order by the way its made up of uniformed lines and a very simple scenery, it also has no distinct focus point which again shows order.  

Gerhard Richter

This artist uses an interest effect in this piece which looks like smuggled paint breaking up the photo which could show chaos with the running paint, the the buildings in the background can also show order how the are uniformed together created structure.
