Semester Final Exam Part 2 and 3

Part 2
Bonfire celebration
 London, november 1999, Soldier Franco Landaverde, is watching over
the celebration when suddenly the fire starts right next to him and his horse.
No one knew how the fire got to him but he was in danger.
As a smart and brave soldier he knew how to control the situation
and he was able to get out of the fire safely.

Monk protest
In this picture Kanji is running on fire, in china, February18, 2005.
He turned himself on fire because he was protesting for his believes.
He was really brave, he was determined to make his
 believes be respected by this dangerous act.

Gunman killed
In july 2012,  John Steven's was shoot while he was in
the car driving around San Francisco.
He died instantly after getting shoot not once but three times in the head.
He was a horrible person himself and he had killed others
with the gun he carried with him.
Part 3


Simplicity 
The potograph is very simple its just a girl standing in the
 middle of a beautiful green path there is nothing that makes it
 distracting or hard to look at.  It represents simplicity very well.


Background
The potographer did a good job on capturing this picture.
the background could of been very distracting but he was
able to make the girl the first thing you saw when you
looked at the picture.


Rule of thrids 
I choose rule of thirds because there is nothing in the middle
and all the attention is drawn to her even tho there are
 other things to look at.

Viewpoint
The photographer was able to set the image and make
 it look like if obama was holding the light in the
 background by the way that he set the angle of the picture.
He also had great timing to when obama moved his
 arms in that way to capture the picture.

Self Portrait

Bring Something to Focus On


Lighting, a single flash can do wonders for your portraits.


Get Closer
The most common mistake made by photographers is that they are not physically close enough to their subjects.

Casual portrait
I chose this picture because it looks really casual to me.
It looks like a normal day in the park.

The Three Pillars of Exposure


F2.8













1. What part of the body should we closely relate aperture?  To the eyes, the cornea in the eyes

2. Finish this sentence - the smaller the Aperture the larger the f-stop, the higher the Aperture the smaller the f-stop.

3. In your own words tell me how aperture impacts Depth of Field?
A small aperture will make the object of the picture more focused and a large aperture will make the object really focused and the back ground really blurry.






Slow shutter speed
Fast shutter speed














  • a.) the dunking booth (slow)
  • b.) the food eating contest (medium)
  • c.) the rock climbing wall (slow)
  • d.) someone working at a booth (slow)
  • e.) the DJ/MC working at the middle of the circle (medium)
  • f.) the Diamonds performance. (fast)

 1. What are the advantages of shooting with a higher ISO setting at a sporting event like a night football game? 
it will allow you to shoot at a higher shutter speed
 and will let you get a perfect shoot.

2. What suggestions did the author make about using a low ISO?
you should always try to stick to the base ISO to get the highest image quality

3. What suggestions did the author make about using a high ISO?
 to use it when there is not enough light so it can freeze the motion 



  • F4      (its closer and the background is blurry)
  • F5.6   (its dark and the background is a little blurry)
  • F8      (darker, the background is more noticeable in focus)
  • F11    (super dark and hard to see background)
  • F16    (too dark can hardly see the picture background is not as blurry)
  • F22    (too dark you can't see anything )

  • The best one to me would be F8.

     makes it wanting to look at.

    make look like she is all the way in the front.

    the background of this picture does not take
    the attention away from the main subjects.

    Great Black and White Photographers Part 3








    The first thing that caught my eyes was that the photographer focused on the pain of other people and it made it show through the pictures.
    I see families trying to get away from the train.

    I smell the smoke coming from the train.
    I hear the train tracks and the people screaming
    I taste the smoke coming out of the train.
    I feel the peoples pain by looking at their eyes.








     

    I see a lot of soldiers ready to fight.
    I smell their sweat as they walk by.
    I hear their foot steps.
    I taste their sweat as they pass by.
    I feel the pride they have for their country.
