Great Black and White Photographers Part 3

1.- The first thing that I saw about Uelsmann's photos was that he uses the Photo-manipulation. He manipulated his photos before Photoshop.

2.-When I see this environment I see trees floating in the air.  I look up and I see a tree that isn't touching the floor. I look down and I see the normal nature as grass and water. When I see the nature around me, I can feel that I'm as the tree, floating in the air. I see the horizon at the end, but I know that there is not an "end". I smell each leaf of the big floating tree. Each part of the green grass, and also the water. But the water has a different and better smell. I hear the sound of the birds away. The wind sound around me. And all those things make my feel peaceful. I taste the small air breeze, it's a good taste; also I taste the leaf of the tree, this is to feel as the tree. I taste the flavor of the water when I drink it, and the water tastes better that the normal or distilled water. I feel the grass touching my foot, the wind touching my face, my hands, and all the other parts of my body, it's so peaceful and awesome that make me to be nothing and everything at the same time. I feel more than just water when I touch it. I can feel the animals in there, their feelings, and what their are thinking.

3.- I would like to create some power point presentation, showing our world. Showing that our world is the best, the most beautiful. Showing how amazing is our world...

Africa and Mural Project Preview

 Africa
 
I am impacted, the presentation "Africa" has good photos, and the photos tell me a story, a good and emotional story.

This is my favorite photo because shows how great and beautiful is Africa


In this photo is evident the Rule of Thirds because the subject is not in the center.

a.- He uses a Pentax 67II (Pentax 6x7)
b.- his reason is showing the animals simply in the state of Being.
c.-He want that the people to make reflection about the animals, because we are who hurt them.
d.- "This world is under terrible threat, all of it caused by us. To me, every creature, human or nonhuman, has an equal right to live, and this feeling, this belief that every animal and I are equal, affects me every time I frame an animal in my camera."
Mural Project Preview


1.- My theme is people doing awesome things.
2.- this theme is really good(to me)and i think that is easy also.
3.- I think that the focus could be "no good" and sometimes we can't be closer at the subject.
4.- We can get a major zoom to the object and a SLR camera can capture some faster movements that a phone camera don't.
5.- Using a SLR
 we'd get better photos than whit a phone camera. So we should use a SLR camera.

3. If you could do the assignment again, what would you do differently now that you know some basic rules of photography?
-Try to take different and best photos


4. What things would you do the same?

Academics Shot

Simplicity
I shooted this photo and is simplicity and I know it because is only one subject. In this photo is just a woman, and she is the only subject in the photo. is very easy find the subject in this photo. his photo could be better with a floor of just one color.

Rule of Thirds
I did follow well the rule of thirds. The subject on this photo is the young man in the corner. Is easy look at the subject on this photo. 

Lines
I did follow well the rule "Lines", how? because the lines of the seats are pointing to the subject that is the young woman.

Balance
This is my "balance" photo, but is not very well. the three guys in the photo are the subject, and is more easy find the 3 subject because are making a geometrical shape(triangle).Two guys are not completed, and if they were completed, the photo would be better.

Framing
I did follow the rule very well. The two students are the subject and around they is a door-frame.


 Avoiding Merges
This is avoid merges because the guy that is at the left(subject) is no completed.

Favorite Photo ACS.
I pick this photo because tell us great things that we can do at school, whit enthusiasm and fun. Also has a great focus on the pink liquid. The light is good. And also this photo captures the liquid that is splashing. 








My Next Shot
 I think I could take some photos in the classrooms around the school, because a good photographer make art anywhere.
Some classes when I can take photos is in the art class, chemistry class, gym class and in the library.
As a photographer I will do great photos making focus and i will try to capture the perfect moment.
