Alex Nail is a landscape photographer who began photography in 2006 by capturing different photographs in Dartmoor. Alex travels to different location to capture new scenes and uses the light in their photographs to get the best outcome. As well as capturing photographs Alex also produces articles based on photography for magazines.
When researching Alex's work I noticed that some photographs they have captured includes mist and thought that this would be a good experiment to try out. Therefore I have used the images below as a reference when producing my own photographs and will consider the composition in which Alex has used.
This photograph has a limited colour palette due as the only colours used are green, blue and white and this is due to the amount of natural light within the photograph. However the limited colour palette helps to capture the mist within the photograph and this is the aim of the photograph. The aim of this photograph is to capture the mist amongst the scenery. The mist gives a sense of movement due to the positioning of the mist as it is captured in different locations.
This photograph uses a restricted colour palette due to the photographer choosing to capture it in black and white. The aim of this photograph is to capture the mist which appears mainly in the background. Due to the amount of light this has produced soft tones within the photograph and almost giving the photograph a painting appearance. Even though the photograph has a restricted colour palette there is a variety of tones used within the photograph. Lines are an important feature within this photograph as this helps give the photograph depth and also helps the mist to stand out as this is a prominent feature.
