Synopsis of study

I am going to take landscapes photographs of places that I wouldn’t normally go visit, i.e. new mask woods. I plan on shooting in 5’ by 4’ using the five four camera which is what I feel confident in using. I also plan to take these picture while walking or on a walk so as to take in the surroundings. I feel that this idea will lead me to take some more interesting landscape photos that tell a narrative. I feel that the area around where I live is a very scenic environment but I don’t tend to see these places and don’t take pictures of them. I will make black and white prints of the pictures using 12 by 16 inch paper. These prints will be what I hand in for assessment.
