Action

See the rest of my photos here

What we were told to do for this project was find 8-10 things that were in motion and to capture them. We had to set the pictures up in a certain way so it wasn’t just a photo of something standing still. What I did was try to get a variety of angles with the shots so they all capture what is really happening in real life. For someone trying to take action photos, I would tell them not to stage the picture too much. If you try and get the perfect picture you will probably end up making the picture look like there isn’t any action. I am a swimmer and think that if I had the time and resources to do so, I would take action shots of people swimming, especially butterfly.

Up Close

What I needed to do was get close to at least 10 objects and really capture details that you would not see with the naked eye. What worked well was I got a lot of time to do this project and really do it well. It was pretty difficult to find interesting things to photograph. Many plants were cool but all of my pictures couldn’t be those. Also, with my phone camera, it doesn’t allow me to get as close as I would want. If i was a big photographer I would like to get close with animals and capture what they really look like.
