PORTRIATS

I think the photo i was most successful was the artistic picture. I think i took alot of time on this one picture to make it look like it was a professional photo shoot. I also put a lot of thought into this picture. I wanted my artistic picture to be strengthening. I wanted everyone to look at the picture and feel like they were looking at something interesting something that made them think. Javontay my partner is into music the prop we used was a micro phone. THe microphone helps express Javontay's music so that is why we used it. In my surprise photo i think the lights given off by the sunset made it unique. I think that that working with a guy is much harder than working with a female. Guys are kind of complicated and make it's harder to make them do certain things because of their manly values.

THE COMPOSITIONAL TRICK THAT I LIKED MOST WAS MACRO I LIKE FILL IN FLASH. I LIKED HOW FILL IN FLASH GAVE ME MORE TO WONDER ABOUT WHEN I LOOKED AT THE PICTURE. I THINK THE TRICK I WILL BE USING IN MY DAY TO DAY PICTURE TAKING IS EXTREME ANGLES. I LIKE HOW EXTREME ANGLES GAVE THE PICTURES THAT EXTRA BOOOM!!!! IT MADE THE PICTURES WAY BETTER TO ME. lIGHTING JUST SO HAPPENED TO BE HARDEST PICTURE FOR ME. I HAD THIS IMAGE IN MY HEAD OF HOW I WANTED THE PICTURE AND I JUST COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHERE IT WAS ON CAMPUS. I REALLY LIKE MY LEADING LINES PHOTO. I JUST THINK OVERALL ITS A GREAT PHOTO.

FILL IN FLASH

FILL IN FLASH MADE A DULL PICTURE BRIGHTEN UP. IT GAVE THE PICTURE MORE EMPHASIS. IN THE FUTURE I WOULD NOT USE FLASH IF I AM TAKING BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOS OR PICTURES THAT DO NOT NEED FLASH. I WILL USE FLASH IN DARK ROOMS OR AREAS WITH TO MUCH LIGHT.

COMPOSITIONAL TRICK # 7 DRAWING WITH LIGHT

WHEN YOU WORK WITH THE LIGHTING YOU HAVE IT KIND OF MAKES YOUR PHOTO STAND OUT. MOST PEOPLE DO NOT REALIZE THE DIFFERENT LIGHTING OPTIONS THE CAN USE TO MAKE THEIR PICTURE BETTER. WHEN I LOOK AT THE PHOTO IT MAKES ME WONDER WHY IS SHE IN THE SHADOWS? WHAT DOES SHE HAVE TO HIDE? IS THEIR SOMETHING MORE TO THE PHOTO?

COMPOSITIONAL TRICK # 6 FRAMING

The framing in the photo helps the reader focus more on the main object. the frame can act as a back ground or a border in a picture. The frameis used to help guide the reader. My pictures focus on my partner Javontay he is framed off by different objects such as a tree and ect.. Framing is a unique technique that allows us to be able to focus. I probably could have looked for better framing materials.

COMPOSITIONAL TRICK 5 EXTREME ANGLES

TO ME EXTREME ANGLES IS A GOOD COMPOSITIONAL TRICK BECAUSE ITS BETTER TOKNOW THE ANGLES YOU CAN CAPTURE THINGS AT. AND WHEN YOU TAKE PICTURES AT ANGLES IT ALLOWS YOU TO BE ABLE TO LOOK AT IT IN A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE. IT ACTUALLY MAKES THE PICTURE POP OUT IN A WAY. MY PHOTOS ARE OKAY EXAMPLES OF EXTREME ANGLES AND I SAY THIS BECAUSE YOU CAN ALWAYS AIM FOR HIGHER OR MAKE SOMETHING BETTER THAN WHAT IT ALREADY IS.

COMPOSITIONAL TRICK 4 SIMPLICITY

Simplicity in a photo helps stregnthen the composition because it makes you wonder or think about on imple object. To me simplicitiy does not mean boring. simplicity is simple something may look boring but really makes a huge state if you take the time to observe that on picture. Simplicity is an effective trick it allows the keen mind to discover and observe things you might not have notice the first time. I used simplictiy on things i thought would make people look at it and ask themselves what is that and i think it worked pretty well.

COMPOSITIONAL TRICK 3 MACRO

THE TEXTURE AND EMPHASIS SHOTS USING MACRO SHOW YOU HOW TO GO DEEPER INTO THE PHOTO WITHOUT ZOOMING. THE MACRO SHOTS SHOW ARE INTERESTING BECAUSE YOU GET TO SEE THE PHOTO UP CLOSE.

COMPOSITIONAL TRICK 2 LEADING LINES

LEADING LINES DRAG YOU INTO THE PHOTO. THE LEAD YOU INTO SOMETHING. THE LEADING LINES IN THIS PHOTO LEAD US TO THE BOY. ONE LINE DRAGGED US FROM THE END OF THE SCREEN, INTO A PHOTO THAT SHOWED SOMETHING MORE INTERESTING THAN THE LINE ITSELF.

COMPOSITIONAL TRICK 1 RULE OF THIRDS

IN THIS PICTURE INSTEAD OF JAVONTAY BEING PLACE IN THE CENTER OF THE PHOTO, I PLACED HIM ON THE SIDE OF THE CAMERA USING THE RULE OF THIRD. THE RULE OF THIRD ALLOWS THE PICTURE TO GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. IT HELPS YOU LOOK FOR SOMETHING INTERESTING IN THE PHOTOGRAPH. i THINK THIS PHOTO IS INTERESTING BECAUSE THE COLORS IN THE PHOTO REALLY STAND OUT AND I THINK THE RULE OF THIRDS GAVE THE PHOTO A LITTLE MORE DYNAMICS.
