Emulation - Roger Arnall

This picture is very low saturated which uses earthy grey tones , they are dull yet still appear quite vibrant as it contrasts against the dark background and the mossy floor. Also as we get to the top the image appears black and white but this is done naturally I believe. The Composition in the image can be diced by the rule of thirds. The bottom 3 squares, four together to make the ground that spots out the trees just as it goes into the middle section. The grass fades out in the background, giving it depth and dimension. The final top layer is only trees and we see in the background more trees fading out in the distance. There isn't a main subject within this image The frame setting is portrait so I would have to be aware of this whilst shooting my own. The image has quite a lot of depth as colours blend well together and have shadows. I think i'd have to take this image in medium lighting and perhaps experimenting with flash, this might of been used due to how dark the background becomes. This would mean i'd have to set my ISO to around 800, this is because there is a very mild grain within the image. It doesn't look very noisy but it doesn't look smooth either. Also this ISO would compensate for the lack of light that the trees would allow to enter. The bark detailing on the trees show up really well and are very defined. 

This picture is very saturated which incorporates ranges of greens, which are very repetitive featuring deep shades,and also lighter shades of greens. You can tell where the light is being shone as the centre of the canvas is light. The leaves have been taken close up / zoomed in, and the camera has used a high aperture to keep the whole of the image in focus. The composition in the photo could be split up ''the rule of thirds'',  the bottom third is high contrasted and much lighter, towards the centre, but very dark around the canvas, in comparison to the middle section which is much lighter and the leaf appears white, moving onto the top of the image, the leaves appear much more intense, darker but still much detail was picked up from the camera.
