You might have guessed from my last entry that I wasn't completely happy with the shot I produced for the second part of project 6 (involving the use of the foreground, middle ground and background) so I've had a second crack at it to hopefully resolve some of the issues I had. Above is said second attempt, this was taken at the Magpie Mine in Derbyshire. Straight off I'm much happier with the fact that I feel the middle ground (the field) and the background (the mine) are clearly divided where in my first attempt they'd kind of blended into one, plus the foreground of the wall and sign are clear and balance the background well. Again I stuck to the idea of getting up close to the foreground focus and using a Grad. filter to darken the background and increase the feeling of depth, the only problem being that the shot is fairly dark overall so the effect of the Grad. filter isn't as strong as it could've been had the foreground been a lot lighter. I can happily say that this shot is an improvement on my first attempt but there's still something about it that doesn't feel quiet right, I don't know maybe again I'm being to picky but I still feel that I can do better in regards to capturing an image that clearly includes the three areas.
