Lecture : rough guide to time

This lecture was on moving images in the shape of time, image, sequence. Every photograph has these elements to it in some shape or form. What was said in the lecture was that moving images don't really move and still images aren't really motionless, which is a great way to look at images it all depends on how you interpret the image as an individual.

Throughout the lecture there was photographers who were mentioned who take photographs of these elements. When it comes to images which don't move I am interested in this because you look at an image with someone running for example Henri Cartier Bresson photograph of a man running across a puddle and catching his reflection, this is a 'moving image' but the subject isn't moving they have captured a particular movement to take and worked with it and I feel I could create that within my images in my project, adapt this time essence into it as it looks beautiful and elegant.

While researching time within photography a lot of useful things came up, about photographers who take photographs of family members through time, photographers such as Steve Pyke and Mary McCartney, they all take images of this time element and create beautiful images with it.
