Own Photograph - Alex Nail Emulation


The purpose of this photograph is to capture the mist in the background while capturing the tree in the foreground. I used Alex Nail's work as a reference in order to try and emulate his work by changing the scene but incorporating the same style, capturing the mist. When capturing this photograph I decided to capture the sun behind the tree in order to highlight the mist in the background and overall I think this works well. The position of sun and the mist suggests that the photograph was taken early in the morning. Due to capturing the sun behind the tree this allows it to highlight parts of the tree and the mist as well as creating shadows within the photograph. The darkness of the foreground also allows the colour in the background to stand out and allow the parts it has highlighted to stand out. This also allows for contrast to appear within the photograph due to the dark foreground and the light background.The colour palette within this photograph is very limited due to the overall lighting. If more light was provided then the colour palette would be widened.






This shows the contact sheet with all the photos which were taken in order to achieve the final result.
