Photographer 3 - Royna Galka:

Royna Galka is a German photographer now based in London focusing on the London street photography. Galka has had a had  a passion for urban photography from a young age. The way in which she captures her images is so that the tell the stories without an explanation. 

I have found Galka's work to be an influence to me as i feel that looking at street photography in London is a interesting way of looking a journey. London is one of my favourite places and i feel that where ever you go theres always a new place  or journey for you to explore. I feel that Galka would be a god photographer to try and base a shoot around to try and get this idea across. 

This image is an example of Galka's work. Here the use of depth makes the image enticing and more interesting. As a whole i really enjoy this image as you can see many different buildings as well as people going along with their daily business. 

These two images are an example of her London street photography. Here what is interesting is that you can clearly determine the type of weather going on. I think this helps to portray a journey as so elements would be different if you was to take this picture in the summer.



This is another example of Galka's street work. In this image you cannot precisely determine where the image was taken, however this is not the focus of the image. Here again you can see the weather conditions, with the focus being of a man walking through the street in the rain. Here the use of tone helps to add depth to the image making it more intense.
