Not being a commuter myself, and the metro brief being based around this, i decided to go to Leeds train Station this morning to do a bit of photography. I have decided that i want this brief to be research driven, so I will have to do a few more trips down there soon.
I struggled a bit to know what to do once i was there as it was just so busy, but it helped me to relate to my audience alot more.
I just focused on taking photographs of the enviroment to give me ideas of context. Next stage is to decide what specific research to carry out, something to investigate and accumulate some facts and figures.
I spent the night at my boyfriends, so I decided to get the train from there, Burley Park to Leeds City Centre train station. I was able to get a proper feel for the hustle and bustle of the early commute.
Define : Commute.
'Commuting is regular travel between one's place of residence and place of work or full time study'
'The distance and time it takes a person to reach the workplace.'
There are some groups of Flickr based around the morning commute:
