These are my final images emulating the work of Rinko Kawauchi. I have cropped them to a square frame and tweaked with the colours using Photoshop CS6. I think they have turned out well and I'm very happy with them.
I'm happy that I managed to have some continuity between the shots rather than than 6 random snaps. I've tried to take Kawauchi's style without just ripping off her photos. I've tried to make links between her subject matter and mine by focusing on deforestation which shares similar themes to her work. She often focuses on the links between the natural world and the humans in it.
I think some of my images could have been more reflective of Kawauchis work but I found it difficult to put my own spin on things but still have similar styles to her because her work is so open ended it was hard to focus on a subject without people thinking they are just random snaps. I'm happy that I chose to focus on this deforestation rather than shadows as I have seen similar projects about shadows and I shared a personal interest in my final subject which led to me spending a lot more time on my shots.
