Falcon Photo

In this project the objective was to take successful shots of people or objects in motion.  In this project I took all my pictures outside of school.  I tried during class but I didn’t like how bland and generic the pictures I was taking looked.  So I went for a different angle.  I went hiking this past weekend and got a bunch of great shots of running water.  During this project I always had to have my camera out.  It only takes a moment for an action be over, it is very easy to miss the opportunity window.  Therefore I didn’t really set up most of my shots.  While I did set up my pictures of musical instruments by telling them to play, I did not set up most shots.  This may sound unprofessional,  but I just took a bunch of pictures and hoped of the best.   Cut me some slack, I’m only a middle school student after all.  My biggest tip is to always be ready and alert, because action is always happening around you.  Take a lot of pictures, as many as you can.  A few are bound to turn out.  If I could do this project and photograph any sport, I would defiantly choose sumo wrestling.  I feel like that would be hilarious to shoot!  There is a lot of action and jiggling fat, a giant showdown of beast pinned against beast.  Who wouldn’t want to take a photo of that?

For this project we had to take action shots, or pictures of people in action. For this project I walked around taking pictures of kids. I had to wait for the right time to take the picture. I also had to make sure that the kids were in action. I would recommend getting an app to use for action shots, because your phone camera really sucks. If i could photograph a sport, I would photograph basketball.

For this project, I had to take 8-10 pictures of an object or person in motion. In order to get the right timing, I took a slow motion video in order to get the right frame. I would pause the video where I wanted it and use that frame as the picture. If you are taking action pictures on your phone, I would take a video so you get the whole action and pick the picture you want. I would like to photograph a swimming event, because you would see the water splashing, and I have a couple of pictures of myself swimming.

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.

In this project, I took photos of people in motion. I had to get the right angles and the perfect timing for the photos to have action. Some tips I would have for people is to wait a little after the action then take the photo. Wait around .3 seconds. I would take a picture of someone hitting a baseball.

Here are my two favorite photos:

 

The purpose of the project was to take pictures of moving objects. To take good pictures, I had to make sure I was still, so the only movement was the object. Taking action photos is difficult and it takes patience. I think it would be fun to photograph action photos of baseball or swimming.

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.

During this project, we were required to take pictures of a moving object or someone moving or performing an action.  What I did to capture a good image was I used burst mode this way I could easily follow the object/person moving and capture their movement too.  Some tips I have for someone taking action photos is to be prepared. Know and be ready to take the picture and make sure to have good focus. If I could photograph any sport I would do hockey. I think it’s amazing how players can easily thrust their body’s to get to the puck or check their opponent. I think its amazing how fast they are able to move with all the equipment on

In this project, we had to take photos portraying motion. We had to use a variety of poses and activities. I lowered the ISO on my camera to capture the fast moving objects clearly. I would recommend this to anyone trying to take action shots. If I could, I would photograph skydivers.
