Academic Photo Shoot Photos

Lines
1.) I think that i followed the rule pretty well. It shows lines from the finger and how it is pointing to the work she has so far written, and it shows lines on the paper.

2.) I think that there is two subjects in this photo. I think the hand is a subject and i think that the blue writing is a subject as well.

3.) Yes, i think it is very clear and quite easy to see exactly what the subject is.



Simplicity

Avoiding Mergers
1.) I think in this photo i followed the rule pretty good, but if i wanted a better picture i could have taken a better one.

Mural Project

1.) Right now i don't really know a theme that we could use. Maybe just use a theme about something happy.

2.) I think we should use cameras and phones, but the cameras would probably look better.

3.) I really don't know where we would put it up. I would just put it somewhere where everyone could see it.

Africa and Mural Project Preview

1.) I liked the photos that he took of the wildlife. He made every photo different, cool, and unique.

2.)

My Favorite Photo





































3.) I chose this photo as my favorite because the giraffes look cool all together and the sun is out above their heads. The color of this photo is really cool too.

4.) Rules of Photography shown in this photo:
Simplicity - because you can clearly see the main subject.
Lines - because the lines on the giraffe and the lines of the giraffes bodies.
Balance - because all of the giraffes are balancing each other out, and the giraffes necks are curved and not just straight.
Framing - because it just shows the giraffes and not everything around them.
Avoiding Mergers - because the right center part of the photo shows a giraffes head coming out of another giraffe.

5.)

a.) He uses a pentax67ii camera

b.) "Over the next few years, frustrated that he could not capture on film his feelings about love for animals, he realized there was a way to achieve this through photography, in a way that he felt no - one had really done before." -Wikipedia

c.) He is interested in showing the animals in simply a state of Being.

d.) A quote "The photos are my elegy to these beautiful creatures, to this wrenchingly beautiful world that is steadily, tragically vanishing before our eyes."

Academic Shoot Preview

The photo i chose was the first photo of the Academics & Community Service. It shows a guy pouring a green liquid and a blue liquid into a glass beaker. A purple liquid is created, and the guy is learning through that experiment.

1.) I picked this photo because you could easily see what the guy was doing and you could tell he was learning.

2.) Simplicity - Because the background isn't complicated, The Rule of Thirds - Because their is something to look at if you drew the tic tac toe box, Lines - Because his fingers and the liquid from the two flasks are leading you to where to look, Balance - Because his hands are on both sides, and his head is in the middle, Framing - Because the center of interest (The 3 liquids) are in the foreground and the background is blurred.

1.) I think i would take photos like the ones i see at lunch, or with friends.
2.) I would visit this classroom, or i would visit my Pe class.
3.) I would use the 6 basic rules of photography, and i would learn more, and then i would use everything i know to take good photos.

Filling The Frame

Filling The Frame
I chose this one as the Most Interesting/ Filling The Frame photo. I chose this one because it shows them having an awesome time and because the bubbles fill up almost of the frame, but you can still see the people and tell that their happy. I think that they are filling the frame up with what they are doing in the scene.

Action and Emotion

Best Action/Emotion Photo
I think this photo is the best action and emotion photo. They are all smiling and you can tell that they are having a very good time. Most of them are participating and putting their hands in the smoke. Everyone seems to be having fun and enjoying the time. You can tell by their actions that they are enjoying it, and their emotions look happy by the smile on their faces.

The Story

Best Story Photo


I think this photo tells the best story. I think that from this picture they are all doing what they should, and they are connected. They look happy, and the trees and stuff that surround them looks nice. They are all holding hands and relaxing. They all look like they are having a good time together. It tells a story of how everyone can connect and be happy.
