I showed my class my most recent images from Birmingham in Broad Street, the canal at Brindley Place and a construction site of the new REP theatre at Cambridge Street. I started taking the photos at twilight and continued into the evening. I followed up with more photos of the same area the following morning. The night time bars and restaurants that were full of young singles looking to party, were replaced by couples with children and Grandparents during the daylight hours. Broad Street at night was full of limousines, lots of lights, que's for clubs, security door people, police and taxis. In daylight Broad Street became a place for pushchairs and office workers.
My peers said these were good but I should organise them so they compare the day to the night showing the same palce/object, or a simular place/object or even the style of the photograph. The image of the traffic light glow on the boards by the construction site would make a great Diptych (or Triptych) and there needs to be a focus with the layout of the images together.
