Africa animals

1. I think he gets better pictures when they don't know hes there like he did. He got them in their natural habitat . I think its beautiful. 
2. 
3. I like this picture the most because 1 I like giraffes, like they are my favorite animal but besides that i like the comparison between the giraffe and the tree and the sky in the background is pretty. 
4.  this could possibly be balance because you could draw a line between the tree and the giraffe and its about the same.
5.  im not sure which camera he using but the only effect i see on it, is that its black and white.
6. his reasoning was to get the animals in a state of being.
7. to get the animals and how they act with other animals or by themselves.
8. "I didn't see a single wild animal the entire four-hour drive. It's not that they've moved elsewhere. It's that they've been wiped out, turned into bushmeat"

mural project/ gb&w part 3

Mural

1. We could do panels of photos maybe of events that are involved with Halloween, pumpkin patch, costumes, Halloween stores, and Halloween decorations.
2. I think we should be able to use cameras if you have one just so the picture has a higher quality if we enlarge it or change it anyway.
3. We could put the mural in the front of the school near the office. 

Great black and white photographer

1. What had caught my eye in Imogens pictures is the close ups ad the "artsy" picture of things out of the ordinary.
2. I see a snake in what i think is some kind of white container. The picture is black and white so i don't know what type of snake it is. It has a bunch of patterns on it and is tied into a little knot.

• I smell the out doors where the snake was found. The freshly cut grass that it slithered through. Along with the flowers growing in the grass.
• I hear the wind blowing the trees around. the snake making his slithering noises trying to escape. i hear the clicking of the camera when the picture is taken.
• i taste the metallic in my mouth from biting my tongue because of how close me and the snake are and trying to take a decent picture with out it being shaky.
• i feel nervous for the closeness of the snake ad I. The picture itself makes me think of braveness and he wilderness. You have to be pretty damn brave to get close to a snake and wilderness because of all the dangerous thing that we don't know about out there.

1. I see 3 flowers. They are tilting with the weight of the petals. the flower looks like it wont die anytime soon and the black background helps the flowers stand out.

• I smell the light aroma from the flower. along with the slight smell of the room we are in, which was at a house party.
• i hear the chatter at the get together. I hear people talking about the decorations, for instance the flowers.
• i taste gum i was put in my mouth before taking the picture .
• I feel the eyes of other people on me watching me take the photo.

      3. I think either a blog or poster would be fine.

When Imogen attended the university of Washington in Seattle her chemistry professor suggested she'd need scientific background to be a photographer. after graduation Imogen had worked for Edward S. Curtis, the producer of the twenty volumes of "The North American Indian", where she had learned the techniques of platinum printing. 

In the 1920's Imogen turned to family and friends nudes and studies of plants from her garden. Her floral images soon became her most praise images. Imogen was inspired by Gertrude Kasebier to become a photographer in 1901. Imogen had a child named Gryffyd, he was born on December 18, 1915. During the second pregnancy she moved to California.

Aperture, shutter, speed, and ISO

Aperture

F/2.8

F/16

1. The eyes is what we closely relate to the aperture.
2. The smaller the aperture, the more visible. the larger the aperture, the smaller the area is focused.
3. The aperture impacts on the depth of field by blurring the background of the object that is sharp.

Speed shutter

High shutter speed

Low shutter speed

DAY
A. slow shutter speed

B. Slow shutter speed

C. Fast shutter speed

D. Fast shutter speed

E. slow shutter speed

F. Fast shutter speed

NIGHT
A. Fast shutter speed 

B. Fast shutter speed

C. Slow shutter speed

D. Slow shutter speed

E. Fast shutter speed

F. Slow shutter speed

1. When you set it to Auto mode it turns it to shutter speed and aperture on by itself. 
2. When you set it to aperture priority you have to set the lens to aperture but the camera dose speed shutter.
3. When you have it on manual you have to set aperture and speed shutter on your own.

Iso

1. The advantage of a higher Iso at a sporting event is the players will be more focused and not blurry because of their motion.
2. The advice the author gave us is to use the lowest Iso (100-200) to get a higher quality.
3. The advice the author gave us about the higher Iso is to only use it when its dark outside.

Aperture setting: F2.8-F22

Shutter speed setting: 1 sec-1/4000 sec

Iso setting: 100-25600

Composition 9/11

Simplicity 

This photo is showing a burning building but it has simplicity because the background is not complicated and it helps the focus on the subject.

Balance 

In this photo is building with smoke in the air if you were to put a line through the middle it would be somewhat symmetrical.

Lines

The building has a bunch of lines on it and is broken by the crash in the middle on it caused by the plane.

Avoiding mergers

George, Hillary, and Rudolph  tour the worlds trade mark.In this photo there is no merging between the tree subjects.

Framing

In this photo is the broken building outlines the man on the ladder leading our focus to him.

Rule of thirds

In this photo Andrew Card is informing former president George bush that the second plane has hit the tower. George and Andrew's conversation is in the top right corner making us focus in that area.

photo manipulation and ethics

A. one of the main points to the article was that photo shopping to much isn't a great idea because you reality.

B. the philosophy of the news paper involved with manipulation is how some of the news papers photoshopped picture to explain their reasoning.  

C. some thing that would be okay and not considered unethical are maybe cropping and maybe changing the lighting, but not to change the mood of the picture.

D. I think that this is the most unethical one because its trying to show how fonda is doing a "good deed" but in reality she never did it. It shows people a false story trying to make her look like the good guy, when she could be a stuck up person.

 

E. I think this is the least unethical because in both pictures they are have a good time. the lighting is just slightly different not changing the mood or the way the picture is looked at.
