Photo Inspiration 2

This week for my photo assignment I will take photos in black and white. Personally I really like the look of black and white photos. The black and white brings a much different affect than a colored photograph. It also changes the mood of the photo.

Pop Art

Assignment Title: Pop Art

Assignment Description: For this assignment we had to take a photo of ourselves and use photoshop to edit the photo. We had to edit and change many things in the photo. The end result was supposed to look like pop art.


I learned a lot about using photoshop with this assignment. I now know how to use some of the basic tools, such as the crop tool. I also know how to change the saturation of the photo. This assignment was a little difficult because I am not very good at using computers so it got a little bit confusing. I think I have a better understanding of how to edit my photos now that I have completed this assignment.

Composition Assignment 2

Assignment Title: Composition Assignment 2

Assignment Description: For this assignment we had to take 5 photos that showed perspective, framing, balance, colors, and space.

Photo Descriptions:
Perspective=Staircase
Framing=Elevator
Balance=Light fixtures
Colors=Ribbon
Space:Person



With this assignment I learned that taking photos from different perspectives can greatly influence your final product and affect the way your audience sees the photo. I also learned that colors affect the "mood" of your photograph. Finally, I learned that balancing your photo's and not making them too busy is a key element to taking a great picture.

For this Best Photo assignment I am going to be taking photographs of food. I would like to do food this week because I will have the perfect opportunity to get some good shots at the party before and after homecoming.

Shutter and Aperture

Assignment Title: Shutter and Aperture

Assignment Description: For this assignment we had to take 8 photos that used shutter speed and aperture. We had to use different shutter speeds and different f stops in order to compose our photos.

Photo Description:
Aperture=Exit sign
Shutter Speed=Drinking fountain



I learned that shutter speed and aperture are very important to a photo's exposure. I also learned that aperture is the size of the opening in your camera when you take a picture. It is measured in f-stops which either doubles or halves the opening in the lens of your camera. I learned that shutter speed is what makes it possible to get good action shots such as an athlete playing a sport or a car going by.
