I like how even though this image was shot from a low angle, It looks like its also taken from on a hill top. |

This image was a taken from Antons technique of shootong from a higher vantage point. I liked that technique cause i like how you can look down and get a sometimes overwhelming view of landscapes. |
 |
This image was me experimenting with a different point of view of but using the idea that land changes over time. This land used to be overgrown and looked over alot of Waiuku. |
 |
This image was taken from Antons same idea to take photos from a higher vantage point. |
 |
This image was an attempt at trying to take a landscape of houses, I could of made this image better by bringing the exposure down a little to bring out stuff in the overexposed areas. |
Post some Derek Henderson photos. What ideas are in Derek Henderson's work? Are these similar to Anton Maurer's work? Do some image evaluation for Anton's photographs. Post your own photographs. How are your ideas and photos similar to Anton's? How are they different? (For example you are photographing in an area you spent a lot of time in as a child and you have a personal connection to this landscape). Include a number of photographs from your shoot that evidence experimentation and comment on the images that most successfully embody your idea?
