Comparing my work to others - Evaluation

*How my photograph is similar to the chosen photographers work. 
Both mine and the original photographers image are both taken in colour, this photo needed to be taken in colour to show the full effect of the red hair. This photo is part of an individual image as it is was just taken as a photo-shoot there were no other images to go with it. Again both mine and the chosen artists images are large format photos taken in a studio. I do believe that mine and the original photo are both sending out the same message as both models have the identical look about them, also both these images are of the same subject as i tried to get them as identical as possible. The images are also composed in a simliar way as they were both taken in the studio using studio lighting, which is based indoors. The photos are taken from a similar distance some for experiments were taken close is and far away from a longer distance. 


Overall Evaluation. 
Overall i am very pleased with my final outcome and i am pleased i chose the image that i did. I found this task quite hard as i knew from the start i would not be able to get it exactly the same as the original but i could get it quite close. It was hard as when taking the photo i also had to make sure i was looking at the original photo checking the lighting and position of the model were all the same. I think my image is quite close to the original, but the faults i would have with it are that my background it too light and could have done with being darker, another fault would be that my model did not have enough hair as the original was a lot thicker and brighter, But i am pleased with the image i created and think it is rather similar to the original as it was a very hard task to complete. Both of these images are taken in a studio using studio lighting. I also had to think about what the model was wearing and what makeup she had on, but this was all easy to sort out and worked well. Both of these images have been edited to look the way they do. Overall i am pleased with my image and if i was to do it again i would pick up on the faults.
