The photographer that has influenced this idea for me to shoot in specific location is 'Simon Roberts', ''The Pierdom''. In this work, Roberts traveled to capture Britain's surviving piers but also captured the vanished ones, as you can see from his picture of Shanklin Pier on the Isle of Wight.
The equipment that I will be using to carry out this shoot will be my Nikon D3200 with the lens off 18-55mm and also I'll be using my tripod as I'll be doing a experimental technique which is going to be a slow shutter speed.
Before I go out and carry out this shoot, I will need 'pre-plan'. For example, thinking of the weather forecast and the time of day into considerations.
So my plan for this shoot is that I am going to go out to Blackpool to capture the Pier and it's surroundings around about 12 o'clock where it gives a more 'colder', 'blue' effect with the weather and take another shoot around about 5 o'clock where the sunset starts to go down which makes it give off a 'warmer', 'calmer' effect.
Simon Roberts (The Pierdom) -
This plan that I planned to do over half term did not work out because of the bad weather conditions. So I have decided to do an indoor shoot in Preston train station and I will be doing this on the 3rd of March. I am planning to take pictures of inside the station of the trains, tracks and people rather than shoot outside of the building and then with this I am going merge two image within each other on photoshop to get a double exposure. (Below are some examples)
I got these images of the internet as it is only an example to show what I am going to do when I complete my shoot. To do these I got two images and dragged them into photoshop to merge them together. I then changed the opacity and the blending layer. Both images below have a different opacity percent as well as the blending layer.
Blending Layer - Screen

Opacity - 42%
Blending Layer - Normal
