Falcon Photo

For this assignment we had to take four photos with human life and 4 photos without while using the rule of thirds. It was much easier to take a picture with a person in it then without. However, using the sky was easy because it took up two thirds of the picture. My thoughts changed from the beginning of the project because the rule of thirds is a little bit different and harder. This is because finding the correct line to put it on is difficult. In the first photo, Mr. G (the goat) is on the left vertical line in the rule of thirds. In my second favorite photo, the sky is taking up two thirds of the rule of thirds horizontally.

The Rule of Thirds is a basic technique used in photography using a three by three grid system.  They use this to align and position the photo to make it flow and have your eye travel in a certain direction.  In this project we had to use this technique to take photos inside and outside, some with people and some without.  The hardest place by far to take photos was inside because there aren’t as many places to take interesting shots and the lighting isn’t the best.  But me and my partner were able to work it out.  The place I liked taking pictures the best was outside my house in Clarksburg. There are some really great sunrises and sunsets outside my house, and I love to capture them on film.  This project helped me take photos in a different way and changed my mindset from the overall look of the photo to the flow of the image.

In this project we had to take photos using the rule of thirds. In the rule of thirds. For the rule of thirds you try to dictate where the eye travels and the point of focus. So some things in this project that were successful were, putting the point of focus on one of the thirds lines. Also, making the second point of focus on a third line too. One thing that didn’t work was ignoring the lines all together. In my photo of Ryan I put the bottom of the horizontal grid at his feet and him on the line furthest to the right. For the soccer one I put the soccer goal post on the furthest left vertical line. Also, the sky is on the top horizontal line. Overall, I enjoyed the rule of thirds project,it taught me how to take a photo with a purpose. https://photos.app.goo.gl/O27m8RBQKHlZzqge2

Rule of thirds is when you line an object on a line grid with the third line.  It was easier to take pictures with uncrowded places cause there was no things in the background to distract from the object. It was harder to take pictures outside because people kept on walking into my pictures and that messed up the balance. It was also difficult to put the object perfectly on the third line, if you didn’t it would throw off the whole picture. I liked this project because it taught me to get creative with my photos and how to make a photo have depth.
