#ProLevel

This semester in photography was a fun year but it was a weird year because there are some many thing that I tried that I have never done before. My thought of photograph has not really change I thought before photography is a inserting subject that I would be average at best and I was right. Yes I have change my way of taking photo I look for angle and lighting now and before I thought any old photo was good. My favorite project was light graffiti because it was the project that we had the most creative and even though someone left our group at the most important time it was a fun project and I think my best photo were there. I have no inserted in becoming a photographer but I would continue it in high school because I rather do something i know than something I don’t know.

My Favorite photo

 

7 Days

For this project we need to take 7 photo that we are thankful for and why we are thankful. We need 7 photo the original project you could not take a picture or people or animals but in this one we can. It was better in black and white than color. a subject that was good were family and friends.

Action

 

What we did in this project was to take a photo that show motion. You could not just take a pose so we need a person  to do an action. Some tips to use is to take burst pictures and walking is a good subject. Sports you can photograph are football, soccer, swimming, and biking.

Up Close

In this project we needed to find a subject to get up close to and take a photo on if you had your phone you just get up close and hope it looks good. The trouble of this project is finding a subject to use also if you use animals to see the animal or stop it from moving. Subject that work are plants like flower, small bug, and objects. If I could take a picture of anything it would be a mantis.

Smiles

The  hard part of the project was that you need to get a person to  photograph. The change on some people are that there look sad or depress up when they smile there look so happy. Bias can affect your job because you can think people don’t like photo or will not look good in a photo. I think the best question what is your background, job and hobbies.

Photo app review

The two website i use is Befunky and PixIr. My favorite Photo editor is PixIr because it is very similar to  Photoshop and it is very easy to use. The PixIr is use for any type of photo editing like crop or to add stuff. BeFunky is more to touch up photo is more use for beauty that is why I like PixIr better.

Here are the photo I edited

Light Graffiti

The first thing you need to do to take a photo is you need a flashlight. Then you turn the ISO to 100 and turn the shutter speed to the time you need to draw.l Then you draw the image you want. Things that worked were simple shape, names and tracing a person. A way to take better photo you could have different color light if you don’t have the you could use your phone light and put your thumb on it it will turn red so you can add color to your photos. Things that did not work is thing that take a long time because you put too much light in the photo.

Rule of Thirds

The things that worked  with rule of thirds is picture with depth or picture where thing is something else besides them because you can tell that were your eye looks. My thoughts on rule of thirds is i only works on some picture but on other ones it does not work that well. My thoughts are that it can be useful sometimes but other it is just annoy to use or think about.

Newseum

For each photo– Which photo (use info from capture sheet), find the originals online if possible, feelings for you from photo, what drew you to the photo.

After both photos– If you were taking the image, could you separate your job as a photographer/journalist from being human? Can you identify struggles of being a photojournalist?  What are the rewards if any? I am looking for a thoughtful paragraph, don’t rush this section.

Link to the Pulitzer Prize can be found here.

2nd exhibit:

Name of exhibit, what made you like it, favorite piece or artifact in it, how did it fit into the overall Newseum?  This should be written in a way to convince people to go see this exhibit.

Photographs:

World Trade  Center Attack by Steve Ludum in 2001

 What drew me to the photo was how perfect timing the photo is it capture the fire in the best way and I could not imagine the face of the people in the towers.

Ebola Ravages West Africa By Daniel Berehulak in 2015 What drew me to the photo was the face on the boy that the people are carrying. How he look like he was froze in time . Also people carrying look like he had no emotion. I could no be a photographer.

If I was a photographer I could not bare to take the that I choose. I could not just watch the people that I am taking the photo for I would help or the I would regret it for a long time. I would rather be human and accept what happens then just watch. The struggle of being a photographer is just watch  not helping the people and the thing you have seen though the year. The reward of photograph is you get people to see thing and make some noise about problem they did not know about.

Another exhibit I visited is the “First Dog” the exhibit is about the president  dogs. It fit in a to a little walkway it really fit in because while you walked around the floor it was a little board around it was nice.

White background

We change the ISO and the shutter speed to but more light in to 1/30 of a second and   we change the ISO to 640. With the change in the camera it put a lot of light in and also with the light in. This is much easier than the black background because we did not need to use too much Photoshop. The difference between a light background  and a black background is how much light the camera takes in. With higher ISO and shutter speed more light will come in.
