People: Environment

For my aim of the environmental portrait, I spoke to a few young girls about where they would go when are going to relax or when they are stressed and need to get away. I then went with them and captured there environment around them.

One of Megan's main hobbies is swimming and this is one side to her. When she is stressed or wants to go and relaxed she would goes to the lilly pond near her and would stand in the water so it became part of her. I rotated the image to symbolise that when she is in the water, she is the only there away from reality.

When Laura is either stressed or wants to somewhere to relate she always goes to the park near her house. Her main reason for going to the park is because its peaceful and quite and she would always sit on the slide and look out into the open. So, I've captured her sat on the slide while having the scenery in the background to symbolise the open space.

Across the road from Jades house is a field with a broken down building on it. So when she's either stressed or wants to get away from everything, she would always go to this place and sit down in the door way and look out into the distance.

Anna would always walk up the road and lean on the wall watching cars go by.

Sophie would always walk into the town centre near her and sit on the stairs looking out into the open area. Watching people walk up the stairs.

Charly would always walk down the the park near her and stand underneath this tree and watch the ducks on the water.

Jennifer would go and sit by the clock tower and look out into the park and think to herself.

Across the road from Heathers house is a cemetery thats look out over Blackburn. So, when ever she is sad, or wants to get away from everything she would go and sit near the entrance and look over at the views on Blackburn.
