Academic Shoot Reflection and Critique

1. What challenges did you encounter while trying to get the photos following the rules I set out for you?
I had no trouble with rules set for the shoot.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 was mainly focusing on focus and a little bit of framing3. If you could do the assignment again, what would you do differently now that you know some basic rules of photography?
I would try to incorporate more aspects and basic rules of photography in my photo's
4. What things would you do the same?
I liked the photo's I took and what I was looking to shoot at. So basically I liked the idea I had set in my mind for my photo's.5. When you go out with your next set of prompts, which rule do you think will be the easiest to achieve?
Rule of thirds, Balance, and maybe simplicity.6. Which rule do you think will be the hardest to capture?
Framing and avoiding mergers.7. What rule are you still not totally clear on and what can you do to figure out what that rule is?
I'm still not clear on lines. I can probably ask a friend to help me figure it out.

Katie had really nice, clear photo's where you could tell what she wanted the subject to be. She also had original photo idea's that I hadn't seen anyone take which drew my eye in and made me want to keep looking at her photo's. One thing she could improve might have been in her first photo, she could have gotten a different angle.

Photography Resolutions for 2016 http://petapixel.com/2014/12/31/10-photography-resolutions-new-year/ On this website, I looked at many different photo's. Not to mention, they all were very unique photo's that you wouldn't expect to see in some place like the newspaper for example. I really enjoyed looking at the photos and the article talked about resolutions for a photographer like, being nice to other photographers. Favorite This was my favorite photo from the website because I thought it was really unique., it really caught my eye. A rule of photography used in this photo is balance.

100 Photographs

1) I chose A Man On The Moon, and First Cell Phone Picture because they were both big accomplishments. Where would we be without having Neil Armstrong walk on the moon? How would our life be different without the cell phone, it was what led us into a huge technology advancement. I also chose the Black Power Salute because of all the events it came to just to fight for equality, and that we have com far from the Equal Rights Movement. I chose The Terror Of War and Hitler At A Nazi Party Rally because I thought Hitler caused war and death and that brings terror and worry. There are wars still going on in our time today it's almost like it's part of our life and that it is gaurenteed to happen. 2) For A Man On The Moon, I read that it was Aldrin in the photo, that Neil Armstrong took. Aldrin didn't really care for being the second man on the moon. Neil Armstrong got lot's of credit and Aldrin not so much. In the First Cell Phone Picture I read that a man named Kaun was b...

Abandoned theme parks

1) I would want to visit Six Flags, New Orleans, USA because there are six flags everywhere. And to think theres an abandoned one, that's featured on a website for most creepy, not to mention in America. That's pretty cool to me and would be fun to go visit and take pictures. 2) 3) Five unusual places to visit that I think would be fun to go to are abandoned towns, asylum's, school's, buildings, and churches. 4) this is an abandoned mental institution in Bristol. 5) I would want to document this place because I think it would make people feel something. Obviously creeped out or something like that but I bet I could find some really interesting things to photograph in there. 6) I would most likely need to fly somewhere, and I don't think I would need a really high end camera but just like the ones we use in class and maybe a tripod. I would also need to make sure no one owns the property so I would not be trespassing.
