Wrong -
What we did -
In this activity we looked at John Baldersari's iconic 'Wrong' piece and attempted to replicate its 'Wrongness' and take our own 'wrong' images in and around the school, however not following the rules may make a nice image.
At the start of the lesson as a class we discussed what was 'wrong' with Baldersari's image and we said that the composition was bad that the tree was coming out of the persons head and the object which are partially in frame and it is slightly out of focus, and the tree which isn't fully in the shot. That it was a black and white image.

Evaluation -
WWW - I think I took some nice 'wrong' photos, as I completely disobeyed the rules to taking a nice image. In some I purposely put my finger in shot and in other I cropped out some things and took some which were very out of focus.
EBI - In some of the 'wrong' images I feel they were actually quite nice, because of the concept behind them of me trying to take a bad image. But if I took these genuinely I would probably think they are bad.
My personal favourite is the bottom left one. I find this one interesting because of the person in a black jacket. The character is quite mysterious because you cannot see his face and how he is only partially in frame (one of our 'wrong' rules). This is my favourite because it is 'wrong' and interesting.
