Inspiration...
I really like this photo as it captures the moment of the child looking sad/thoughtful - as if she's been all dressed up and isn't very happy about it! My series is going to be focussed on moments, so I really like that this has that quality.
I really just like the aesthetic of this photo - the black and white, the plain background, and the child looking intrigued by the camera - maybe not exactly what I want in my series, as I think I'd rather have the child oblivious to the camera, but I still like the appearance of this photo - simple, pure, like childhood itself.
Further to the capturing of a moment theme, this photo is an excellent example of freezing time - the child is just about to get stuck into eating the lollipop - something I'm sure many people can remember doing as a child.
Again looking at capturing a moment - this child is playing in wild grass and the movement is captured with a fast shutter speed. This particular set of moments is looking at the joy felt by the child while she plays, very much conveying feelings through 'paused' time.
In both of these, there's a very short depth of field which is something I want to utilise in my series. I feel it really puts the focus on the subject (the child).
