My Idea Generation:
Urban:
Here is what I think when I hear the words 'Urban'
Cities, towns, landscapes, buildings (high rise), homeless, graffiti, street dance, signs, dereliction, subways, tattoos and maybe piercings.
For any of these I would go somewhere like Birmingham, Manchester or Leeds and find a skate park, I would ask a random, interesting looking subject to be my basis for inspiration.
I would ask if they would accept for me taking a few photographs of them, by them skating on the ramps and doing tricks and also to take a portrait of them but where the subject is not smiling.
I think this would give the picture raw depth and it would be very intriguing for me.

Also I would liked to have done an Adam and Eve type shoots, which for Urban would be shot in the present day
I would have liked to have had a girl and boy:
who were quite heavily tattooed and had piercings,
I would make sure that they have long hair
I would like to have rotten apples instead of bright and fresh
I would use a graffiti background or make it really classy which could have been in the woods
I would like it to be like the original were they were kind of naked but they would have been covered up in spray paint and plastic just to be safe.
There would also be ivy covering them too.
I would have really enjoyed this shoot if it were to commence as I think it would be beautiful and it would a spin/twist on something which was so beautiful and simple.

I would also like to photograph someone who is homeless, why?
It is there environment someone who is homeless they have to stay there and I would like to capture that, as depending on the circumstance it can be pulled off beautifully and make the image work and can inspire people maybe to help someone who is homeless.
I'd like to do that and just have a chat with them just to make sure that it is okay for me to take photographs of them in their own environment without making them feel bad or upset about it.
