Architecture

In this assignment I took pictures of the school, and other places but they really didn't turn out that good, for architecture. I learned that the better photos have more angles, walls meeting, and lines. The more of these there are the better my pictures were.

In this photo I took a picture of a stair way looking up from the bottom of it. I found that all the railways and different levels creating great lines and many deph of fields.

Context

In this assignment we took a place of our school and made it out of context. In this I took a picture of the first aid kit and made it all crazy and wrong. I liked this assignment because I really got to express my creativity and crazyness.

Black & White

In this Assignment I took black and white photos of my house, my sisters apartment and even one from the Tesoriero's house. I learned that usually the objects of interest that either have black, white, or big contrast usually looks good in black & white. 



In my best photo I took a picture of one of my favorite New York Yankee hat. I thought this would look very good in black & white since the logo is already in white. For this picture I actually used a macro setting to get the desired focus of the hat.

Motion Demo


In this assignment we learned how to pan a moving figure so that the background would blur and our subject would stay in focus. Our teacher, Mr. Bush, hopped on hopped on his bike and had us take photos of him while he rode back in forth. I personally learned that this is really hard to do and I feel a little lucky i even got a good photo.

Shadows and Light

I took this photo in my sisters apartment up in Lansing. I saw how the light of the lamp created shadows off this wind chime she had in her apartment and decided to take a few pictures. I think this really turned out good.

Panoramic



In this assignment we took 3 pictures and brought them together to make one big panoramic picture. I learned that this is more of an editing assignment than a skillful photo assignment. I also learned that if your pictures don't exactly line up it's o.k., because crop, stretch, and even the eraser tools can help you.

Gimp assignment 4

We Learned how to take portrait pictures of people. There are two types of portrait pictures a three point lighting setup and a window light portrait. Plus we learned that adding a little light is important, but you don't want the same amount of light on both sides of your subject.


I took photos f two of my classmates and then edited them on GIMP and put white borders around them. The left is the 3 point lighting setup an the right is the window light portrait.




Event: Super Bowl!!!!!

I took photos at my friends super bowl party, it was really fun, but i will admit i feel like i got off task. I learned that at a event you should not get caught in the event and remember to take photos.


This is a Picture of the food and objects on the table. I thought this showed a story of the things that are brought to a super bowl party. I thought it was smart to think that these were the focus instead of the people.
