The thesis consists of a theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part includes a short history of travel and reportage photography, artistic elements and variables used in photography, but also draws conclusions regarding the previous findings in connection between art theory and photography. In addition, this thesis includes a research on the development of travel photography over the time and the influence as well as the implementation of art theory in photography and composition. The camera and gear used for the execution of this thesis along with the relations between individual settings of the camera are also presented.
The practical part includes 15 photographs taken on a trip from Maribor to Koper by bicycle. This comprises both travel and reportage photography and we mostly took landscape photographs, but also captured some other moments during the trip. The photo story features photographs along with technical details and short art analyses.
The aim of this thesis is to bring the reader closer to our story through time and space on the trip to the Slovenian seaside. The main goal is to show the images and moments captured by the traveler, but also to enrich the experience with short stories.
