These are some contact sheets of the photoshoot i did using money. I wanted to capture it in a different light, and with  little depth in it. I don't like all of these but my faveriout set of photos are the ones with the lens, were they're really zoomed in, i like the fact it has distorted some of the photos and that some are really detailed, i also like the set up of the note hiding and just peeping through this zip in the page, i think it makes the note look quite mischievous and sneaky which resembles how the pound is at the moment.

I chose this photo as one of the top, because its so clear and has distorted it a little bit, the queens head that is shown is one that you sometimes cannot see without light with the human eye. 

This photo was chosen because i like how I've made it look distorted. I love the fact you can see what I'm using, the separate lens. 


This one was chosen because i love the range of colors in it, the repetition in t and th kind of collage look it brings. I didn't want the notes all to be perfectly alined and seamless, i wanted you to see the raw texture of the notes, the scatty edges and the washed out colour. 

I love this one because its like the note is hiding behind this wall of darkness just like the currentcy of britian is today, like we have to seek ou money these days, like it just doesn't exist. Its adder to see your money these days... know what i mean?

This is a great one because of the colur of the notes,   i love the reflection in the metal on the foorgroud o the picture and the crispness of the black card. 

This was chosen based on the sharpness of the photograph and in the back group the background there is like this reflection of both metals that creates this lights that carries right throughou the photo.

To create these photographs i used a honeycomb lamp, sync lead, hot shoe adapter, everyone's money (including Neil) and various sheets of metal (reflective surface) and papers/cards.

Im not quite sure if they would look great in a series of photographs or weather i will just like them as one on their own. Plan is to investigate put them onto contact sheets and see what they look like all together.
