The second week of a five-week class on Photography, Art and Architecture was more fun than the first week. We spent a little too long looking at Diego’s photos before we moved to the National Theatre for evaluations on some of our photos from last week and practical work.
I really enjoy this class partly due to an interesting mix of our fellow students - a third of the people are architects while there are also a professional photographer, psychiatrist, PhD student of Fine Art and an investment banker. We are also from different countries: Spain, Romania, Denmark, Hong Kong and of course, England.
As Diego said, our differences were shown in the ways we see the same building. Some people were keen to capture the details and tend to be more graphical while the others were obsessed with the spiral staircase. I like taking photos of reflections - through windows or shadows.
We didn’t have long photographing the National Theatre and decided to come back again next week.
