Exposure Examples



Exposure: The amount of light to be shown in the picture. A proper photo combines ISO, aperture, Shutter Speed.

ISO: A digital camera sensor's sensitivity to light. Higher ISO is letting in more light to the photo.


Aperture: The size of the opening in the lens. 

Shutter Speed:The amount of time it takes for a camera's shutter to open and close. Faster shutter speed slows down motion.

Portrait Post

1. At school, I will be taking pictures of Anya, Heather, and Emma. I will capture them doing some drama and acting scenes because they love that class and acting. I also might get pictures of Emma and Heather dancing. At home, I will be taking pictures of Emily. I will be capturing her doing something musical because she loves to sing and play the piano.

2. I learned to look for leading lines every time I hold the camera to my eye, move your angle and experiment with the photo, move my subject away from walls if i am taking photos indoors, and if you are doing a street photo be patient and let things fall into place.

3.
I like this photo because it shows this woman as a very hard worker and I like how the light is hitting the bundle of string making it shine.


I like this photo because I can see the enjoyment the man has while playing this instrument and how the lighting is very natural.



I like the photo because I can see the connection between the mother and son and how happy they are.

My Composition Photos

1. Rule of Thirds: This is my rule of thirds photo because she is in one of the far thirds and facing towards the other open thirds.


2. Balance: I chose this for my balance because with the background without the tree there it would be a boring blue sky and adding the tree aded some interest to the photo.


3. Lines: I chose this for my lines photo because I didn't get any other great photos using ones but in the photo the lines are somewhat moving your eyes towards her face.


4. Symmetry and Patterns: I chose this for symmetry and patterns because the two swings add symmetry to the photo.


5. Point of View:I chose this as my point of view because I was standing over her trying to make her look smaller than she would've looked if I took from a different angle.



6. Background/ Foreground:This photo was more foreground because I tried to get as close to the ground as a could and include the grass to the picture.


7. Depth: This is my depth photo because it sort of has different levels to the picture.


8. Framing: I chose this as my framing photo because I used part of the play structure to frame her face.


9. Cropping: I chose this for my cropping rule because I tried to get as much of the background out as possible and still have it be and interesting photo.


10. Break The Rules: I chose this photo because I didn't think it really fully applied to one or more of the rules but it was still a good photo in my mind.

Compostion Rules

1. Rule of thirds: Put the horizon on the lower third, have subject looking/ facing toward the open        thirds.

2. Balance: Put subject off-center and add other objects into the picture so it won't feel empty.            
         
3. Lines: Think about where your lines are because lines draw peoples eye to where they are facing and through the image.

4. Symmetry and Patterns:They add a geometric feel and catches peoples eyes.
 
5. Point of view: Think about how the angle and view of your photo will effect the feeling and outlook of your photo.

6. Background/Foreground: If there is a very busy background your subject will blend in and not stand out and the same with the foreground.

7. Depth: Including objects in the background, foreground, and middle ground to make the image have more depth and drawing your eye to the variety of the photo.

8. Framing: Elements that draw your eye to a specific place like trees and archways. These help to distinguish your subject.

9. Cropping: Get very close to your subject and makes for an interesting photo and makes if obvious to what you are meant to see.

10. BREAK THE RULES: Rules were meant to be broken and experiment. sometimes breaking he rules leaves you with a better photo than following all of the rules.

First Photo Walk

                                  I chose this photo because I liked the angle i took this photo at.

Inspiration

I love this picture because I have always loved dance and I kinda of have an addiction to converse so this picture just appeals to me in every way.

I like this picture because I love nature and  the sky is just beautiful as well as the view of the mountains.

I love this photo because the Brooklyn bridge is a great background and the empty kinda of torn up street to me is a different feel than the beautiful bridge and is interesting to me.
