App Review

The two sites I reviewed are VSCO and google photos. Google photos is a site that google whas uploaded for use and is free! You can upload any photos that you have taken on any device to google photos, and they give you an option to edit them, crop them, and create full albums online! I enjoy google photos because it is easy to use and accessible, and something that we always use in this class. Below are two photos I edited in google photos.

I also like to use VSCO, an online app where you can take photos and edit them directly after. VSCO is free to download and allows you to take photos and change filters with a click of a button. It is incredibly easy to upload these photos from VSCO with a quick click on the website. You can also browse your friends profiles with VSCO, and images or videos that they have uploaded.  Here is a link to the VSCO website. These are my photos I edited on VSCO;

Up close

For this project we used cameras on super macro to get up close to something but not zooming in. one of the challenges was finding Interesting things like insects. one struggle is if your camera has auto focus or auto super macro then sometimes it wont focus when you want it to. If i had the chance i would get an up close shot of a snake or a spider.

App review

The app i chose is huji. Huji is a app that takes relay vintage looking photos so their is like a nostalgia. I really like huji because it makes photos look really old and artsy and i like that sort of stuff

Super Macro

In this project, I used Mr. Fitz’s camera to take multiple photos of ordinary, and in most cases small objects up close, which increased their size and the point of view at looking at them. For some, I shifted the angle of the camera, and sometimes had to keep the camera away from the object, so that the shot would not go out of focus, or focus on something that I didn’t want to get. In order to get such up close shots, in some I had to take a new approach, such as zooming in the camera a bit. Since I was walking around in a small group, and we found such amazing things to take photos of, it was hard for us to not take the same images. I suppose if I had the materials to do so, I’d like to take an up close image of a waterfall, or maybe a drop of water sliding down a leaf.

Here are two images I took;

App review

For these two pictures I used Snapchat and VSCO. Snapchat is used for taking pictures, adding filters and sending them to friends. VSCO is for taking pictures and editing them. These two are my favorite apps because you edit your pictures in different ways, and add tons of filters.

Light Graffiti

We took our pictures with Mr. Fitz camera which had the bulb setting so we didn’t really need to turn the shutter on for 8 seconds.The f stop was at 3.5, once we clicked the button we had to draw something but you had to make sure you didn’t take too long and that the light was facing the camera.What worked was being able draw what we wanted to and some of them coming out well.What didn’t work was making sure we had shadows and our feet in the picture but they came out well. Didn’t really have frustrations during this project except our feet  and shadows were getting in certain pictures.To take this project to the next level I would probably make the the drawing more “complex”, adding more swirls and designs.

Up Close

During this project it was easy to find objects to take photos of. I tried finding objects that were very colorful. It was challenging to keep objects from becoming blurry. It was also hard to to work the camera because I don’t have VSCO. If I had the time and the camera I would love to take pictures of animals and bugs. This would be really cool. My two favorite photos are below as well as the link the the rest.

Up Close

For this project, we took pictures of objects super close up (or super macro). Everything in this project worked out well and it was cool to see the detail of some of the objects. We had to take different types of pictures and not just flowers or plants. If I had the equipment, time, and ability to get a really good picture, I would take one of sand or the ocean waves crashing. Here are my two favorite photos, and the rest are in my Google album:

Super Macro

I had to go really close to objects and take pictures in high focus. One thing that worked well was finding simple objects that are easy to get close to and have cool textures.  I did try something new because I have never taken a super macro photo before.  Some challenges was getting the camera close but not too close to the point where it got blury. But there was no issues finding subjects or issues with my camera. I would like to photograph a snowflake because each one is unique and they look cool.

Getting Close

In this project, I had to take pictures of objects up close. It was challanging to get the the picture to be focused and clear. If I had the perfect amount of time and equipment, I would try to get a close picture of a baseball and see the stitches up close.Here is the link to all of my photos: https://photos.app.goo.gl/EfqhmsYxobTUzW9K6
