Dazed and Confused

I have taken photos of several adverts and images from the magazine Dazed and Confused. I find them inspirational and have given me ideas on what sort of effects I want for the images I'm going to create.

This image is great because they have created a completely different feel to the image by having rocks faded in to the background. I think it gives it a hard texture to the image and gets rid of the soft sky.


This image works well because the colouring of the model blends into the trees and mountains beautifully. By making the model a more striking colour it makes him stand out against the back ground even though he's fading in to it.



I love how for this photo shoot they have taken two images and blended them together to create a really cool effect. I may consider blending an image of my model and an image of my trees together to create something similar. I think the colour and lighting works really well with the images as well, the soft light brings the colours of the sky and trees out more.
For this image I could create something similar by having a model lie on the grass in a park and have different objects around him. This could include something red so it will relate to my brief.
I chose this image because of how bright the red is which is being used. This gave me the idea of having the red balance very high on my images and instead of having just a red object turning my whole image red. Although I don't know how this will work with my nature scenery, but I will give it a go and see how it turns out.
I chose this image because it's inspirational for me to create a similar look for my photo shoot if I was to go down the route of romance. Although it works for this I don't want to photograph something that has been done before.
