My next piece of inspiration came from Alexey Titarenko. He does a lot of movement photography and that's what I'm going to be capturing a lot of during my stay in London. My next couple of shoots are going to be based purely on movement and linking into the work idea of my project. While looking through Titarenko's photography, these two photographs really caught my attention:
 

 
I'm absolutely in love with these photographs as they are just so interesting to look at and appreciate. The movement within my photography isn't going to be as excessive as this, however I am inspired by his use of movement and the angles he captures these from. Titarenko mostly takes his photographs to the side of the people going past and so captures his movement from that angle which is what I want to do. I also want my photographs to be black and white to once again portray this gloomy and dark atmosphere of parents having to go to work for their families. These photographs are also taken in a city where it is obvious that these people moving are most likely a big mix of working people going to and from work. Within my next couple of shoots while I'm in London, I want to capture my images while having something in the background which proves to the viewer it is in London. This portrays the feelings of the working city and that the people/transport within my photographs are mostly to do with work. The composition is also brilliant within Titarenko's photography as most of the time the movement moves right the way through the photograph, guiding your eyes along with it. I want to hopefully capture this within my photography as that's what I really like about his work.
