The Story-

This photo tells a story of good people helping and donating their time to homeless people to serve the homeless people.

Action or Emotion

This photo represents action & emotion because the girls are both happy and showing a smile on their face, and while their smiling they are doing a project it looks like and are both having fun.

Filling the frame

This picture is interesting because of the smoke that is in the picture and you cant really tell what their doing but it looks interesting cause of the smoke.

The falling man

My reaction to this photo is shoking! This photo is very depressing but i mean this person had rather took their life, instead of burning to death. Its very emotional because seeing this and sad knowing that this person had to stand up and jump off and not burn.

Post Shoot Reflection

1. What challenges did you encounter while trying to get the photos of your first 3 prompts (Red, Metal, Grumpy?
I had trouble getting a Grumpy face because, its hard to make people grumpy that are always happy.

2. What technical aspects of photography or the assignment in general (focus, framing, holding the camera, etc.) did you find yourself thinking about the most? Provide a specific example of what you did to do this correctly.
I had trouble focusing the camara when i would take pictures that i thought were really good well they didnt end up really good cause the focus was blurry when i went back and looked at the pictures.

3. If you could do the assignment again, what would you do differently now that you know some basic rules of photograhy?
If i could do the assignment again i would make sure the camara is focused before i take pictures and make sure the zoom in is on when its needed and when its not needed zoomed out.

4. What things would you do the same?
I would continue trying my best to shoot angles, like the stairs picture i took.

5. Finally - go back and edit your blogs with the 3 photos (red, metal, grumpy), tell me what rules of composition (which you just learned about) did you end up actually achieving? Did you have any?

6. Are you interested in shooting those prompts again, why?
Yes im interested in shooting again so that i can go back and get more things of photography in my pictures.

Composition 9/11- learning the basics

Simplicity

In this picture you can see that the van made the best standout of the photo besides the guy on the side, and theres no buildings to see on the side so i thought it would be simplicity.

Rule Of Thirds

In this picture you can see the trash on the left of the photo was the main part and the rest of the photo i simple to where the focus is mostly on the trash.

Lines

In the picture you can see that the lines are going Horiziontally down.

Balance

In this phot you can see that the people that are standing up in shock, are shaped in a square shape.

Framing

In this photo you can see that the Twin Towers are the main focus, and they are being framed by trees, and also by more buildings that are much smaller than them.

Avoiding Mergers

In this photo the main focus is the man in the yellow shirt in the middle of the photo and there is a pole that looks like its going straight threw his head but it really isn't.

Red, Metal, Grumpy

Warm-Up

The photo that i've choosen makes me feel sad, because of the homes that have been destroyed and the animals and people who have been killed because of this fire. It makes me feel depressed just looking at it, because i wouldnt be able to imagine loosing my home, and my town that i live in burning.
