Last Project!

Last Project!

This semester has been really fun taking photos. We did so many different and interesting projects that I enjoyed. It was a great class to start 8th grade. My thoughts have changed about photography because in the beginning, I thought it was just taking pictures. But after this class, I learned that you can edit photos in so many different ways. I have changed the way I take photos because this class taught me different ways on how to take photos like up close, and in motion. My favorite project was the light graffiti because it was so cool seeing that if you leave the shutter open, you can paint a picture. Photography doesn’t interest me as a career. But, I would like to continue learning in high school because I enjoy taking photo

Getting Close

Getting Close

In this project we had to take up close photos on small objects. We had to use the macro icon in our cameras to get a really good shot. In the end, we had to take 10 photos that are up close. Using the macro icon worked really well in this project because the pictures looked way better than taking them regularly. I tried going close to the objects and I’ve never done that before. A challenge I had was trying to find objects because usually it didn’t work out. It was pretty difficult to find subjects. An issue I had with the camera was when I tried to take a photo, the camera didn’t turn to the macro icon and went to another icon. I would like to take pictures of animals up close, specifically bees.
