Infinite/Black Background

For my project we had to take photos in font of a white background,  using manual mode and a higher ISO. The pictures when edited and made black and white ended up looking really good. For the black background we needed to master shutter speed and have a lower ISO. For the white we had to do almost the exact same thing except  the shutter speed had to be longer and we could not cast a shadow.  I think the black background was more simple because we didn’t have to worry about the shadows.

Rule of Thirds

When we did this project it was pretty fun and simple to think of thing to include in our rule of thirds photos. I thought it was hard enough though to find a really good place for the object to make it a true rule of thirds photo. When i first started I thought it was going to be super easy to find good locations for the rule of thirds photos. After the project I realized that it was a little harder to find the perfect place for a rule of thirds photo. When i was following the requirements for a rule of thirds photo, I needed to use a grid to show us all the thirds of the picture which ended up really helping. When setting up a shot I had to bring the main object or area, into a third of the photo either horizontally or vertically.

Framing

The Framing project was all about framing or in other words creating a frame out of nothing. For example you can frame things like, trees, columns etc. This photo is my favorite photo because I took it when we were first taking photos back during the crayon age. I like how its double framed and also how the color of the crayons are inverted. A couple challenges I faced during the making of these photos was finding the perfect way to position me, myself, or I in the photos and clearly show the boarder.

5 Angles

For this project, I had to take 5 different pictures of some objects and a person. One thing i found hard was when I couldn’t take a picture in the same angle again. I had to take a photo from 5 different angles. The computer was probably the hardest object to take a picture of because of it almost being against a wall. This project really helped me get a sense of  how to take multiple pictures from different angles efficiently. Next time I need to take some photos I will remember everything I’ve learned from this project.

24 Crayons

In the crayon assignment, I had to get 24 pictures of crayons. It was hard for me to find the perfect match for the color and get it to still be interesting. The easiest part of the project was using the camera/my phone because i was used to using it. My favorite picture I took was the one above because of the interesting way i took using the fence as almost a lens. If you want to see more of my amazingly taken photos, click here to view more.
