LO!: About Bulb Photography And Local Photographers

Bulb Photography.

Bulb photography is a shutter speed setting on an adjustable camera that allows for long exposure times under the direct control of the photographer. With this setting, the shutter simply stays open as long as the shutter release button remains depressed. An alternative setting common on film cameras is Time, abbreviated T, where the button is pressed once to open the shutter and again to close it.

Chris Saunders Photography.

Chris Saunders is a local portrait photographer, he has took many different portraits of different people, including bands such as Arctic Monkeys. 







Chris Saunders has taken photos around the world and not just in Sheffield, for example, this picture was taken of a 10 year old african boy. The picture connotes an indie style look inspired by Sheffield and this is very effective because of the colours that clash and the pose of the model, it is also focused on the portrait with a blurred background.

 This photo is a group portrait, the models are famous people from Sheffield, Jarvis Cocker, Alex Turner and Richard Hawley. The light at the top of the photo is effective and brings life to the black and white photo.
