After moving to Lincoln, I have two homes now. I still count my original home as my actual home place but Lincoln is now like a home to me.

So when thinking about the photos I will take, I will experiment with imagery from Lincoln and photos from my actual home in Nottingham.

“such imagery is not about place itself so much as about the experience of place”
Wells, Liz. (2011) Land Matters: Landscape Photography, Culture and Identity.

I found this quote interesting as it highlights images of place can express the experience of being there. I will use this idea to inform my photographs and think about the associated experiences I have in each place.

So before shooting I thought about imagery I relate to home in…

..Lincoln:
Ducks and Swans
Boats
My Uni Room and Kitchen

 

..my home in Nottingham:
A table full of food
The front entrance of my house
Flowers
Our pet bird
