This photo is rule of thirds because the female is on the left of the photo . The women is in the left corner , which is one of the thirds .  As you can see the rain is everywhere , but the focus is on the women in this photo . 

      
                This photo is called a view point . Its viewpoint because as you can see the men in the photo was token from underneath him . Therefore you see more of the sky than him , but the focus is on the men in this photo .

                                       

 

This photo is an example of avoiding mergers . Clearly the focus of this photo is on obama speech . But with everything in the background , it still tells that obama is the main focus of this photo. 

 This photo is an example of balance . ts balance because as you can see the olympic rings are all being balanced. This photo is Asymmetrical balance , because one or more objects contrast one another and is balancing all sides of a specific point .

Framing 

This photo is framing because in the photo , it frames the windows , with the trees and cars in the background. 

Academic shoot reflection

1 . The challenge for me was matching the photos for the rules , especially avoiding mergers . 

2 . The technical aspects I found myself thinking about the most was framing . I had a little trouble on how or which way should I take it , but then I did some of my photos , holding the camera parelle. 

3 . If I could do this assignment again Knowing the rules a little bit better I'd chose the right basic of the photos . 

4 . The things I would do the same is my photo for framing , for some reason I liked it a lot . 

5 . The rule that I think will be easiest to achieve would be lines . 

6 . The rule that I think would be the hardest to achieve would be balance .

7 . The rule that I'm not clear on would be balance . I can figure out what the rule is by looking at some examples of balance . 

Academic shoots

Lines 

This is a picture of lines because it's going on continuously . & yes it is clear for people that it's lines . 

Rule of thirds 

 
I followed this rule pretty well . This is rule of thirds because the ring is cut off on the left . & yes it's pretty clear for people that it's rule of thirds . 

 Balance . 

I followed this rule for balance pretty well also , because the tress and rainbow is balanced in this photo . 

framing .

I followed this rule for framing much better than my others because the photo is just focused on one person  . 

Simplicity 

I followed this rule of simplicity good , because in this photo it's simple . It's just on the flower . 

Avoiding mergers 

I followed this rule of avoiding mergers , okay . Because the photo is supposed to be focused on the sky and sun , and also avoiding the lights . 

Mural photos

Quick write .

One time , it was super dark outside , and my sister & I were just talking outside , sitting next to a guddar , she accidently drops her phone in it . She was too scared to go inside it because she was afriad she wasn't going to be able to get out . So I had to go inside it & get her phone myself , despite the spiders & what else could of been in there. 

Quick write

Scariest sounds ever ;

Screaming . 

Sound of the Freddy cugar movie . 

Quick Write

In my room , is a huge mirror on top of a dresser , two audio stereos hung up on my wall .
A collage of my boyfriend and I also hung on my wall . A smaller mirror hung on my closet door , my jordans and sandals in their shoe boxes in a corner , and my box of letter from my boyfriend in another shoe box put up .

A theme that I would use to make my own mural for akins , would be pictures of studentss , helping one another . I would include every subject in my mural . Take photos of teachers talking to a student for help , and students helping eachother .
The photos will be worth devoting effort to capture because the photos will show how caring and on task akins is and as well as for the teachers and students .

Africa Slide Show Reflection .

This is a photo of an egg on the ground in africa . This photo is my favorite photo because , I love the way this photo was took . It gives feeling , and it captures more than just the egg .
Nick Brandt photographs on medium-format black and white film without telephoto or zoom lenses. (He uses a Pentax 67II with only two fixed lenses.) Nick Brandt took his Africa pictures because he fell in fell in love with the animals and East Africa .
Nick Brandt explains the reasons for the methods he uses , saying "I'm not interested in creating work that is simply documentary or filled with action and drama, which has been the norm in the photography of animals in the wild. What I am interested in is showing the animals simply in the state of Being. In the state of Being before they are no longer are. Before, in the wild at least, they cease to exist. This world is under terrible threat, all of it caused by us. To me, every creature, human or nonhuman, has an equal right to live, and this feeling, this belief that every animal and I are equal, affects me every time I frame an animal in my camera. The photos are my elegy to these beautiful creatures, to this wrenchingly beautiful world that is steadily, tragically vanishing before our eyes".

I like her photos because their great viewing , focused , and give feeling . 

She could improve on the photos by changing angles .  

Camera Parts .

An aperture is an opening, hole, or gap.

An shutter a device that opens and closes to expose the film in a camera. 

an exposure is the total amount of light allowed to fall on the photographic medium  during the process of taking a photograph

Depth of field refers to the range of distance that appears acceptably sharp. It varies depending on camera type, aperture and focusing distance, although print size and viewing distance can also influence our perception of depth of field. 

An f-stop is the opening that lets light into your camera. And so the numbers on the f-stop relate to the size of the opening that is letting light into your camera.

The focal length tells us the angle of view—how much of the scene will be captured—and the magnification—how large individual elements will be. 

Camera History and Camera Parts .

Inside a camera obscura is a completely dark room, a tiny hole is created in one wall. Through the hole light is focused, and the outside scene is projected (upside down) on the opposite wall.The hole acted like a lens, focusing and projecting light onto the wall of the dark chamber.

In the 17th century, the modern camera came one step closer when Isaac Newton and Christian Huygens perfected the understanding of optics and the process of making high quality glass lenses .

In 1827 Joseph Nicéphore Niépce added the final touch. He added *film* to create the first successful photograph, and the modern camera was born. He used A glass lens, a dark box, and film.

Niepce’s camera and modern digital cameras are both common because light passes through the lens, into the camera, and exposes the film. 

digital cameras capture the images with an electronic sensor called a CCD.

With auto mode the camera will completely control flash and exposure.
But with program mode the camera will automatic-assist, just point and shoot. Unlike full auto mode, you can usually control flash and a few other camera settings.  

The Portrait mode is to attempt to blur out the background, camera will try to use the fastest available lens setting (aperture).  


The sports mode is used for freezing motion, camera will use the highest shutter speed possible. 

You should do a half press on the trigger button because If the subject is somewhat off-centre, the auto-focus may be fooled.  A half-press will tell the camera that you're almost ready to take a shot and to be prepared .

Disabled Flash means no flash.

Auto-Flash is in most camera modes, Auto-flash is enabled by default and will automatically fire if the camera thinks it needs more light.

if using too much light and the picture will be washed out. if not enough light and the picture will be too dark.

The term "stop" is used in every aspect of photography to represent a relative change in the brightness of light.

Avoiding Mergers .

This photo is avoiding mergers , because the photo is really focused on the two girls , but you can see cars and other objects in the background .

Framing

This photo is framing because of the trees in the photo , it gives it feeling .

Balance .

This photo is balanced , because of their body language , and two men fire fighters is carrying another fire fighter . 

Lines .

This photo is called line because it has lines of smoke to catch the attention .

Rule Of Thirds .

This photo is called Rule Of Thirds , because this photo has a building on fire , positioned more in the center , then a cut off building on fire , on the right side  .

Simplicity .

This photo is called simplicity because it has background but its clear that the attention is the building on fire .
