Throughout this course we are studying a essay and what to do it on, with my theme of Loneliness I have steered a bit against it but still with the concept of loneliness but looking at Mental Illnesses. Glenside Hospital Museum was a great place to look at in Bristol for inspiration. It wasn't just knowing the history of it and the illnesses, it was focussing on how Mental Illness was portrayed through photographs.
I noticed it was more telling a story of what their lifes were like, it wasn't staged, it was very natural and very basic. Techniques weren't thought of that much, they couldn't have been edited/photoshopped, shutter speed, ISO, they had to work with what they did have such as looking at lighting.
