Double Exposure

Jada and i created this picture one day by putting my picture and hers together. (We exposed the paper to my picture then quickly put it on her enlarger and exposed it again to her picture) We had the idea because our pictures were similar minus the fact that she had a cat and I had a human. The focal point i would say is kind of around the noses. I like this picture but wish it could have come out a little closer to what we were wanting, having the cat and human eye on top of one another. 

Pets and Point of View

I thought it was easy to get this picture because i was just sitting by my horse with the camera and watched as she started playing with the rope swing. i did have to position her i just had to get myself in a good angle and snap the picture. I think this is a good picture because its not ordinary and you can really see the detail of the rope and her face, i also like this because the main focus is her mouth with leading factors to that spot in the picture.

This picture isn't the best example of point of view, but i like what it captures. The film in my camera was messed up and faded out so i used this picture from down town.


Close up and Reflections


I found it very easy and fun to get a close up picture, my main focus in this picture is the big yellow flower which stands out the most and having the background blurred helped it stand out even more. I like how much detail you can get from a close up picture and how it blurs the surrounding really capturing the main focus.
I got this picture on a rainy day in the breezeway. I wanted tot trey to get the reflections of some surrounding trees and of the petals.

Architecture


This picture could be used as a background on a screen-savor or it could be used to advertise this church. My picture captures not only the font of the building but the angle i chose to take the picture of, makes the building, and placement seam peaceful.

Photoshop Backround

I liked how you could put a picture in a completely different area than where the image was actually taken. I also like how easy the process of moving a picture is, but what I didn't like was how deleting parts of the picture could become very difficult if the contrast between your object and what you are taken it out of isn't very strong. 
 
Before Blemish
After Blemish
 
I think this technique could be helpful for a photographer who is trying to capture someone without flaws. Also it could be helpful for someone who wants to post "flawless"pictures of themselves.

Panning


 
My picture is of a person in motion. I was on shutter speed 1/60 because I wanted it to be clear but still have some blur.

People & Shadow


So in this picture I went into the bubble and I liked the different lines and shadows the chairs and table projected onto the ground. the light in this photo came from many windows that are directly behind the table.

I had this person sit on the top of the stair rail while I went to the flight of stairs beneath him. I like this picture because he fills part of the picture with him body while his left arm draws a line to the rest of the picture. Then to fill the space on the right side of the photo the line painted on the wall combined with the stair rail and tile pattern draw your eyes downward.

Scavenger Hunt & Studio Portriat

           How did you like using a digital camera compared to the 35mm film camera?
I like the Digital cameras because you can see what you are doing and when the light isn't perfect you can see what you are looking at instead of trying to get the bar in the center and sometimes even when you have that bar centered on the 35mm camera the picture still could turn dark and after taking pictures there is a risk of developing wrong or exposing them.

I took this picture because I liked how the lines kind of led you eyes but, you had the plant intertwining with the fence. Also I like the contrast because through out the picture you get darks and then the brightness of the white snow. I decided to take this picture because I was walking to my car and thought it would be a good snow picture fro Instagram but then I realized it fit the qualities for this project.

This picture was taken in a dark room with a spot light shinning on the girl. I also got the brightness from using the flash on the camera. I like this picture because she is full of color on one side with the dark bordering her. I chose this picture because I liked how her arm arches from the chair drawing the attention to her face.

Solorization


With this picture I had the enlarger run for 8 seconds and then put it in the developer for about 10 seconds or until i could faintly see my picture, after that i took it out of the developer and put in back under the enlarger for one second. Someone might use this process in order to make either an abstract picture or to outline/capture an important part of the picture.

Assignment 4


I got a high contrast out of my pictures because of the placement of my objects/subjects. I also included a light that brightened certain places on the person, and on the walls. I like how both of my pictures turned out but I really like how the person of the person blacked out the one side of her face and left only a portion of her face lit, which caused a really good high contrast.
