Portable Window 5
Hi, This will be my last blog post about my 'Portable Window' photoshoots, as this photography investigation comes to a close I have tried to use the same techniques but photograph through the window at night. At first I just photographed light from lamp-posts on my street which worked well with experimenting with a night scene and different shutter speeds/ apertures.

Greetings, For this photoshoot, I have created an artificial window and have been photographing raindrops through this in places where windows wouldn't usually be. For this first part of the photoshoot I created the portable window that I would be using. This 'window' is made of perspex and at a size of about an A3 piece of paper. Around the perspex I heavily tapped some black card to create a box shape. Photographing through the black card makes the foreground darker which c
