Assignment #10

Assignment #8

LONG DEPTH OF FIELD

I love this photograph. It uses a very small aperture to create a great depth of field.


This also portrays a great depth of field by being taken at a far away distance and using a small aperture.


Same as above.

SHALLOW DEPTH OF FIELD

Large aperture to create shallow depth and central focus.


Large aperture again with a focus on the face.


Focus on the main object (model) with blurred background using large aperture.

Assignment #5

This photograph is a great inspiration, especially for a portrait. It uses rule of thirds, has an intense focal point (the eyes), and has a great use and shadows and dodging/burning. It is definitely something I feel like I could also acheive in a photograph.

Assignment #3

3. Scan one of the photos I have at my desk. In your journal write the first words that come to mind when viewing the image. Explain in a paragraph how that word is visually connected to the image. Describe the composition talking about the basic shapes that make up the image and how they are placed to make up the composition.

Words that come to mind: Crowded, Exciting, Festive, Commotion, Busy
In the picture you see many many people and faces, most showing happy and excited emotions. Everyone appears to be gathered around and observing something. Even people on the balcony's of buildings are looking on. The two buildings give the picture a very long depth of field, as if the image goes on forever and ever. The photograph portrays a sense of mystery as well, as you don't know what it is all the people are looking at.

Assignment #4

4. Draw a map of your house or neighborhood. As you draw, label as many things as you can. Use the map to help you remember where things are located and what memory is associated with an area or space. If you are drawing your house, then add furniture; if your neighborhood, add some of the things in nature (ex. Tree, plants, etc.) When you finish the map, make a list of interesting things/places that you might photograph. Scan this and add it to your journal.

-Trees and logs in the forest.
-Design and portions of house.
-Plants and flowers in yard.
-Wild animals like squirrels in forest.
