Assignment 3: Buildings in use

I have recently completed Assignment 3, which is titled  Buildings in use. I have chosen 5 buildings to photograph for this Assignment. I have found capturing each of the buildings to be quite challenging – finding both the 'right' angle and viewpoint and then good light is hard.



Building 1. RCH Bus Station, Herston
A bus station on the Northern Busway, Brisbane.

Building 4. Northey City Farm Office Building

This assignment has been another big challenge for me. Choosing the buildings and then executing each photograph and trying to get a complete view of each building was not easy. I have learnt a lot during the course of this assignment, and feel like I have improved considerably in my photography of buildings and spaces. More practice required, as ever...
