Assignment Description- For this assignment we went out and took pictures again. We had to take pictures of framing, perspective, space, color, and balance. After we went out and took the pictures, we loaded them on to the computer, and on to the desktop. I then put them on photoshop where I made an album to put my selected pictures in. Then I moved them into this blog.
Photo Description-
Framing- Tree through the door
Perspective- Shoes
Space- Stop sign
Color- Pink flower (close up)
Balance- Green, black, and white colors
Slideshow-
What I learned- I learned many things for this assignment. For framing, I learned that it helps you hilight your main point of interest. Perspective helps you discover new angles on your subject, and drastically impacts the look. Space crates a nice sense of intamacy and connection, but also gives your subject space to breathe. Balance helps improve the image by counter balancing the main focal point of an image. Color can add vibrancy, energy, and interest to you picture. Color also impacts the mood of the picture.

Shutter speed and Aperture
Assignment Description- For this assignment we had to show the difference between different shutter speeds and apertures. We went out with our cameras and took pictures of moving objects using different shutter speeds. The faster the shutter speed, the clearer, but darker the image is. As you can see in the slide show, the first picture of the water coming out of the drinking fountain is slightly blurrier then the ones after that. The last picture of the water is also significantly darker, but clearer. For aperture I took pictures of a locker combination dial, the first pictures only focus on the dial but as the pictures move on you can see the background get more focused.

Shutter speed- Water fountain
Aperture- Locker combination dial
What I learned- For this assignment I learned the differences between shutter speed and aperture. Shutter speed is how long the shutter is open. The longer the shutter is open, the more light is let in, those photos are usually brighter. The shorter the shutter is open, the less light is let in. When the shutter is really small the picture usually comes out really dark. Aperture is how in focused the picture is. The lower the aperture, the more focused the picture is on one thing. Then the background is usually blurry. But when the aperture gets higher, The whole picture becomes less blurry and it is all in focused.

Composition 1
Photo Description-
Depth of Field = Locker
Rule of Thirds = Duck in the pond
Symmetry = Road
Texture = Tree bark
Lines = Diagonal road lines
Slideshow-
What I learned- I learned a lot of things about compositions. For example the rule of thirds, I learned that it just doesn't look right in a picture if the subject of a picture is directly in the center. Therefore you should put the subject off center, then it looks more natural. I also learned how to download and use photoshop. Overall I learned a lot of useful things during this assignment.
