Great Black and White Photographers Part 3

1) What first caught my eye about Ansel Adams photo's, is that they are very defined. What I mean by that is that they have so much detail added to them. Even in the most simplest photo's, he always finds a way to really grab your attention with the image's detail. Theres usually a lot going on in his photo's which I really like.

2)I see the sun shining down on me from above. The clear, bright blue sky behind it. I see a dark cave that only brings my curiosity to it. I hear small and medium sized creatures scurry through tiny, rigid plants and big stones. I hear echo's of nature's presence surround me in all sides. The wind's voices blows right near my ear. I feel dirty, from being outside for so long. The breeze, not cool but warm, drifts against my body. It's warm sensation may not help the sweat dripping down my face but it gives me feelings of comfort. I taste the dust, blowing in the air. The heat makes my cold water taste amazing. The sweat also mixes with it giving me a salty flavor. I'm getting smells from all around, like body oder coming from my body. Some animals also have distinct smells lingering around. The dust clogging my eyes stops my nose up with the smell of nothing, but still something.

second photo:

I see many creatures, my eyes locking with theirs. It feels like a stare going on forever but it's broken after a couple seconds. I look up at the sky seeing the sort rolling in. I feel the cool breeze sweep against my legs. I have a concerned feeling though I don't know why. I move along brushing against the bush. I hear the water running through the stream. The storm makes a loud thunder. I listen to the wind shaking the tree's, I hear the rattle of all the plants. The cold water I drink, makes me get goosebumps. I taste the condensation from the green's in my mouth. I also taste the the rain that's about to pour. I smell the everlasting smell of the leaves. The smell of rain water is flooding through my nose. The stream water's specific smell is fighting with it.

3) I think I would like to make a power point to show the world how great my photographer, Ansel Adams, is. I think his work has a very specific touch made by him, that adds to it, and he should be recognized for it.

Aperture, shutter speed, and ISO

F2.8 F16+ A1. We closely relate aperture to the pupil (in our eye) A2. The smaller aperture will create a larger f-stop, the higher aperture will create a smaller f-stop A3. Aperture affects depth of field. Depth of field is the subject or what's in focus in the photograph. The aperture has a direct affect on the depth of field, the higher aperture number, the more focus the foreground will be in, the lower the aperture number, the more blurred the foreground will be. Low shutter speed High shutter speed Daylight Photo's: a) slow shutter speed because no motion is taking place b)Probably a medium- slow shutter speed because there could be little motion c)Probably a medium- high shutter speed because the stars are moving quickly but in light d)Again, a medium- high shutter speed because they may not be moving as quick as the stars, but are moving somewhat fast and are in daylight e)Around a medium shutter speed because no one is running in and n...

Post Shoot Reflection

1. What challenges did you encounter while trying to get the photos of your first 4 prompts (Square, Metal, Happy, Bowie) I had a little bit of a challenge with getting the photo's I wanted in the time limit we were given. 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 thinking mostly about what photo I could take to where someone could get a relative idea of the prompt, but I was also focusing on having a focused picture, because I always seem to try and get closer to objects in the photo's I take. 3. If you could do the assignment again, what would you do differently now that you know some basic rules of photography? I think I would try to incorporate more of the aspects of photography into my photos and see if I liked the outcome better.  4. What things would you do the same? I thin...

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...
