Hurricane Ike

This photo shows Leading Lines, i look at this photo my eyes would automatically detect all of the lines from the wood on the floor, the first lady's shirt, and the houses. I chose this photo because everything stands out to me, the huge pile of things on the floor stood out to me the most because if you think about it this pile use to be somebody's belongings, somebody's life, somebody's home.

This photo stands out to because it shows leading lines and framing. I say it shows leading lines because of the stairs, windows, poles, fence, and the wall. They're 2 frames in this photo, the first framing is hole in the wall showing the man's legs. The second framing is under the house showing the beach and the fence hanging there.

After his discharge he settled in Paris, where he married his love Jeanna Florin. 1954, returned to New York and began his photography. Between 1955-1965 he became a fashion photographer working for Vogue magazine.

9/11 Composition

Simplicity:
In this photo, it shows simplicity because it is focusing on the woman in uniform. She is the main person of this photo, it does not have a complicated background.
 

 Rule of Thirds:
This photo shows Rule of Thirds because if I were to cut it into 3 I would be able to see a object in each square.

Lines:
The lines from the main flag, the lines show to the main object in this photo which is the people holding onto the flag.

Balance:
In this photo it has a baby and his mother, it is a balance because on each side it has a flag and also they both have blonde hair.

Framing:
This has great framing because the center point of this photo is the background and the wall post frame the scene in the background.

Avoiding Mergers:
Avoiding Mergers is where you don't have your main point of the picture fade into the background or have something that seems like it is attached to your object. This photo shows that the smoke is coming from the woman's back instead it is really behind the woman.

Pinhole Finale

The differences between my negative and positive:

• my negative is a lot darker and if you look closer you could see the car's windows
• my positive is a lot brighter and you can't see the car at all you can only see the back of the car, it looks like the top of an ipod

What happened to my negative?

The definition for negative is expressing or containing negation or denial. Negative Photography is noting an image in which the brightness valuesof the subject are reproduced so that the lightest areas areshown as the darkest. 

My negative looks completely different from my positive because of the color contrast and my positive is a lot brighter than my negative. I believe my negative is a lot better because I can actually see the car a lot better. In my negative you actually see more things, in my positive it is so bright you can only really see the back of the car and all of the grass.

Pinhole Photgraphy

I chose this photo because anybody can take a picture of a pretty flower but only those who really can capture the beauty of the flower in the photograph. I think this picture has great colors and a great angle. The somewhat shaded sky an the grass brings out the flower's colors. I believe the focus on this photo is sharp. This was one of the first photos I saw and I instantly loved this photo. :) 

 I really like this photo because its the classic black and white, who doesn't like black and white photos? This is a great photo because it has an amazing background, gate, and fountain. The angle of this photo is amazing you see this gate from where nobody hardly see when they're passing through. This photo has everything it has good quality, great angle, perfect colors, a soft focus, and it is just a picture perfect photo. 

I am not a big fan of this photo because any person can take a self portrait. This picture seems like somebody needed a new profile picture for facebook and stood in front of the camera "click" there is a photo. This photo has a soft focus. The man in this photo, it has a little bit of a blur but not so much to where you can't really see whats in the photo.

My first photos :)

This was my first day in this class and my photos aren't that great but if I had to choose a photo I chose this photo. This is a good photo because I captured her facial expression and her pose. Her shirt brings out the picture, it goes along with the book shelf. The shelf is a little bit darker than her shirt but both colors together brings out the best in the photo.

This is one of the bad pictures I took that day. I don't believe this is a good picture because I think sometimes photography is where you capture the little moments not the posed pictures. This picture is a posed picture because of her smile, the way she stands, and her arms.
