Post-production | thoughts

Originally i wanted to keep my photographs in colour however with looking at many peoples work such as people from the New Topographics exhibition, it influenced me to experiment with editing my photos into black and white, these outcomes i found to have more potential and worked well together as there was a constant flow to them without the intrusion of colour. As i found that colour created contrasts and prevented certain images from being able to be placed next to one another, where as taking this element away i no longer have that element to consider and there is a better fluidity throughout the images which will help when it comes to choosing my final images. For the images that i select as my final images i want them to show different architectural traits as to demonstrate the time periods that are seen throughout Wymondham in the buildings there, if possible it would be interesting to present them in a way to see the order of progression, or it could be interesting to place them in a different order to what their time era is as it could make the viewer think about how they view the former structure designs to what is currently seen and often built around us nowadays. Want to look into presenting them as one large print in a grid format of 4-6 images as i don’t want to have too many images within the grid format as i feel that there would be too much to look at and only displaying a small part of the range of time through architecture shows an element of how time is always passing and this will always be added to as things change, more time will have passed. Older buildings will potentially  be knocked down/become ruins or have modern parts built onto to help them stay intact along with new modern buildings being built in the future, expanding on what is already there. This constant change and progression links as to why i want to display a small range of images as to show how the town is now, what still stands after so many years compared to the new modern buildings.
