I enjoyed todays lesson, because I experimented with photography inspired by Nick Knight. I like Knight's photography because of the vivid colours he captures or edits. I admire his approach to using modern and different medias to capture and edit his photography, such as apps like Glitche and Megaphoto. I had previously looked at Knight's 'Flora' photographs and was stunned at the detail and the lively colours. I tried to research how he edited these photographs and I have come to believe he developed the photos in a dark room.

The activity was inspiring due to the way the overhead projector mapped out images onto people's clothes. I thought I would archive this idea for future work, such as print.
At the end of the lesson, I edited one of the many photos we took using an app called 'Glitch' (which I chose, due to the cost and was slightly different to the app 'Glitche'). The result was bizarre, but I liked it - It also made me think how far you can edit a photograph until it becomes something else, due it being so abstract. This is why I like Nick Knight's work, because he does demonstrate this point.
