Tenerife: Photo Shoot

Tenerife: Photos from February 2015

In February 2015, me and my family travelled to Tenerife (one of the Canary Islands) of r a week. I took out my sister's Nikon D40X and aimed to utilise some of the rules and theories of photography that I had learnt this courses readings and workshops with the photos I was to take.
From these photos, I wanted to find a connection between them in terms of what they represent about Tenerife.

















































From these photos, I took a long look at the array I had to choose from and realised that they displayed Tenerife as being a land of lost heritage, a place influenced not just from tourist culture, but cultures from all across the globe. It was from this I realised that the culture located in Los Cristianos, Tenerife, had been 'displaced' from it's origins. 

Therefore, I realised I needed to look more at the national heritage of Tenerife, and it's current influence from other cultures and possible photographers from the area.
