PhotographyBLOG Portfolios: Greg Taylor

Greg TaylorThe 9th PhotographyBLOG Portfolio has been submitted by Greg Taylor.

“My theme is ‘contrasts of light and dark’.

My name is Greg Taylor. I am 16, live in one of the suburbs of London and am a student in the first year of college, but due to lack of funds, my school is unable to run any kind of photography class, so I do it in my own time.

I usually have sudden urges to take photos of a certain location, often at a ridiculous time of day (5:30 am for the London sunrise shots!). At the moment I use a fuji S7000 and a range of wideangle and other lenses. This will be the first time I will have shown my photos to anybody and certainly the first time to be possibly displayed on the net!

I like to take emotional style pictures, often including some form of heavy light and dark contrast, and a focal point on the picture (where the eyes are drawn to). I also like to take action photography of anything that moves, really! Objects such as running, greyhound racing, mountain biking etc.”

Thanks for showing your photo of London, Greg - this is fantastic to read about what you're doing. Keep it up...people of your age have so much talent and enough get up and go to make it happen. All the best for your future.
Thanks again,
Hillie, Australia.

Hi Greg,

I'm very impressed with your photograph's.
The light and dark theme produced dramatic
results.

You seem to have what they call 'the eye'.
Keep up the good work.

Greg-

We more or less have the same name, but I am 68 years old and a national magazine photo editor.
I did not like the picture postcard style shots of London, as they are too stereotypical. Your best shot was the very last one (rider in the trees) and quite good.

Thanks,

Taylor Gregg
