For this test shoot I used the Bronica, medium format camera, at an apeture of f8 and a shutter speed of 1/60. I decided to not use a flash for the sunlight was bright enough to use and I kinda liked the shadows and contrast the sunlight generated. In the first image I feel there is a sense of male dominance, this I have gathered from asking people for their initial response. To which it was often that they felt that the women had done something wrong, hence why he is standing there appearing to stare at her. In the second, she appears to be upset, maybe enforcing the idea of male dominance, someone I asked what they thought said 'maybe she has been beaten or abused in some kind of way'.
What I have learned from this shoot is that I am satisfied with the results from the Bronica and I will therefore take up a simular technique in my final shoot.
