Throughout this whole semester, we worked on taking pictures with different angles and how to edit pictures a certain way. We also made our own logo to put on our pictures that we took. At first I thought photography was just taking a picture and you’re done, but it’s definitely more then just taking the picture itself. Thought has to go into the picture and then after you have to edit the picture, and after you’re finished with all that you have to put your logo on it, so my opinion on photography has definitely changed this semester. I have changed the way I take pictures, now I use the rule of thirds a lot when I take pictures which helps a lot in the end. My favorite project was probably this one because it pretty much combined all our projects together which I think is really cool. If I’m being honest, after this class, photography does interest me as a career because it seems so interesting to me and there’s so many things you could take pictures of and so many ways to take those pictures which I love and I could see also becoming a hobby. I don’t know for sure yet if I want to continue learning this in high school but I probably will based off of my experience in this class. My favorite picture is of is of the hallway I took because Ella looks like she’s lost.
Getting Close
This project was about going up to living and non-living objects and taking pictures of those objects up close. When I was taking pictures, what worked really well for me was getting close to the object and getting farther away until it focused on the object. The only new thing I did for this project was taking the pictures all the way up close which was actually pretty interesting to do. There wasn’t any challenges I came across when doing this project considering it was pretty easy to do. Since I walk to school, I can just take some during that time. Sometimes when I was trying to get close to an object, the camera wouldn’t focus so I had to keep moving the camera until it did focus. If I had the time and money, I would like to photograph the Eiffel Tower from the bottom up. Here is a like to all my pictures.

Set In The Street
This project is based around a kitchen table in a place or location where someone built a set and a person takes a picture while set zoomed in and one zoomed out. Each person in our group took one of the picture ( Lauren, Ella, and Emilia ). To edit my pictures, I used photo shop. The tools I used in photo shop, to edit my pictures was the feather tool, as well as the lasso to darken the picture at the top. If I had to choose a location to take pictures to tell my families story, I would choose our second living room. If I took pictures with my family, you would see me watching TV with my two dogs on my lap. Another picture you would see is, my parents sitting on the couch eating dinner, and me sitting on the floor eating my dinner.
