For a lot of my sketches, I had changed ideas to create a better meaning, make more sense or for convenience reasons.
For this image I took away the Peace Gardens Water fountain balls for the background as I didn't want to overcomplicate things since the final piece would be better suited for portrait, and I also took away the sky on the forehead as I didn't think it added to any kind of meaning in the final photo. Also I went with black and white colours so the sky wouldn't be too noticeable to be worth it, it would just make the image whiter.
I had changed the image of Park Hill entirely, without sacrificing what meaning I wanted to create. In the final piece there is no model since I didn't think the position the sketch was in could be taken too seriously, there is no tram image because the risk of taking a picture of somebody was just too high since trams don't stop for long (and also I may have issues with the Supertram logo), the final image has changed colours with a low key sky to have an unusual, other world-like feel (similar to what I wanted to create with the sketch) and there is another planet in the sky to help elevate that meaning.
With this image I had trouble taking the image of the Sheffield Hallam university building with its passage. There was nether a good angle to take the image at since it has text that I wanted to take off of the image, there were trees covering the end of the passage, so I decided to go with the Miner tribute made out of bricks near Castle Street. I also added a skyline in the background with washed out, nostalgic filters, and I made the miner look down to the model rather than have him on his back.
With this sketch I changed two things. I couldn't take an image of the Winter Gardens exterior since the lights weren't on such as I planned, and if I took it at day then I would probably have taken a picture of somebody who didn't agree to be taken. Because of this, I was allowed to take the image of the boot at day, since the I Quarter building wasn't required to be taken at night (so lighting didn't conflict), allowing me to create a man-made vs nature theme. Also taking four separate images for just this would overcomplicate things, so I simplified it to an image of a boot in a garden, combined with the I Quarter building subtly.
With this image I had changed the building for the arm to the Arts Tower as it was a more convenient location, it has more cultural relevance for meaning and it has warm colours (warm and cool colours became an idea for this image), I removed the background entirely for a simplification so the image was more about photography than editing things together, no skin of the arm if found as I felt that I wanted the arm to be a shape for a silhouette picture, making the picture only consist of three clear pictures rather than four, and I made the arm contain the Peace Gardens water fountain balls as I found it to have a good use of cool and warm colours alongside the identity of the modern.
