These were my original letterforms. I cut out triangles within the letters and then cut out the letters once that was done. I done this because when I went on to photograph my final outcome I wanted to be able to show the shadow that came from the letters. Even though the shadows turned out vivid like I wanted and can be seen they didn't really work out as I had hoped. This was mainly due to the light from the sun moving too fast for me to be able to get decent images and shadows from elsewhere ended up getting into some of my images as well.
After I heard feedback for my first set of photographs I went back and tried to get the shadow how I wanted but unfortunately using artificial light didn't work so I decided to place the letters against a black background. Even though this isn't what I wanted I still think that they turned out quite nice against a background. I chose a black one as I thought that the letters would stand out more and the viewer would be able to see the detail inside them.
