"Fixed Portrait Shoot"

ISO100

Aperture:F/5.6 

Shutter Speed:1/30

                                                                       ISO400

Aperture:F/5.6

Shutter Speed:1/25. 

ISO800

   

Aperture:F/5.6

Shutter Speed:1/100   

ISO1600

Aperture:F/10 

Shutter Speed:1/100

                                                               
                                                                        ISO3200
                             

Aperture:F/5.6

Shutter Speed: 1/640

The best settings that I used for my pictures were for the Aperture F/5.6  & F/10 and for the Shutter Speed I had different for every pictured I had  1/30, 1/100, 1/125,1/640 .it depended on my ISO.My Best picture was with ISO100 i really liked how it came out. I can use my techniques that I used for this activity with my other assignment I think it's going to be successful on my aperture and shutter speed techniques. I had more practice on it and I think I would do better than this.

Final!

"Caption Writing"

  Saturday morning, William Levy's wife got in a terrible accident on her way to pick up her daughter              shelby, Sadly the ambulance didn't get there on time to help her.

                                       

 

Mr. President Obama having an argument with Stacey the Government of France, She believes its not fair for her people not having the opportunity to come to the United States. 

Saturday Morning Jake up was running away from the police ,He started to get on fire as soon as he backed away from them.

"Photo Composition"

-This picture has a rule of Leading Lines, It shows the line on the track, where you can see where the lines are leading you. Each line has a number , The number are squared with lines also. It shows you how the lines are being formed and where the lines are taking you.

-This picture has a Rule of Thirds, It shows you how the girl is in only on one specific side and theres no one besides her or on the background. Rule of thirds its were a subject is in a specific corner . Where theres nothing surrounding the subject, and you can see it clearly as well.

-This Picture has a rule of Background, It shows how the background is plain and simple. and you can see clearly at the men talking, and the picture its mainly about him so that what its mainly about, when just a particular subject is being focused, And the background simple so you can pay more attention on the object your trying to take a picture of.

-This picture has a rule of Symmetry and Patterns, It shows how the shape of the circles is on the center of the picture. and how the patterns of the circle keeps on going also with the lines of Symmetry going a crossed at each other. Symmetry and Patterns is where you can see lines and shapes working together.And having a particular pattern.

"Self Portraits and Portraits"

1. Tips:
-One way is to frame an interesting composition and then, with your compact camera mounted on a tripod or another means of support, use the self-timer (if your camera has one) to trip the shutter after you get into position in front of the lens. 
-Photographing your shadow is another way to do a self-portrait. Shoot early or late, when the sun is low in the sky. A light, stucco wall, a sidewalk, or any other simple background can suffice.
- A self-portrait should be a very personal expression, not simply a mirror of something you've seen elsewhere.

2.  Environmental Portrait: 

 I like this picture because of the background
and how she is lying on the sand trying to tell a story
the camera just being focus on her.

I like this Picture because of how is just her on the swings and the rest of the kids are being blurry out . Is telling a story that you can understand really quickly.

3. Casual Environmental:

I like this pictures because on how they have their own standing their own movement of being focused on the camera its only them and a simple background and the color that the sun gives the picture.

3.  Formal Portrait:

   I like this Picture Because oh how its just focus on her face everything is simple starring with the background. Is simple just like the look she's given to the camera.

I like this Picture because its just like the picture on top is simple and still a very beautiful picture it a clean work with the background and with a natural look.  

Who will you shoot, where will you shoot, and what will you do to make the shot successful? I would probably do a Self-Portrait, I would like to shoot Down town where you could see the beauty of Austin, the buildings the people etc.. Or in a garden were the beauty of nature would be seen. What i would do to make my portrait successful would be to follow the tips i have receive, and follow my photography rules and the steps to use the camera the best that i can. I would shoot the picture my self with a tripod and make sure everything its okay with the aperture and the shutter etc before i take it.

"The Three Pillars of Exposure: Aperture, ISO, Shutter Speed"

F2.8

                                                                            F16

1. What part of the body should we closely relate aperture?  We should relate it to our eye, the inside of our eye which is the pupil.

2. Finish this sentence - The smaller the Aperture More light comes trough the lens , the higher the Aperture Less Light comes through the lens.

3. In your own words tell me how aperture impacts Depth of Field? Depending on the aperture if it small or big if its big the object would focused more ,and if it's small the object would focused more on all the picture.

                                                                        Slow Shutter Speed

                                                               Fast Shutter Speed

Light:

• a.) the dunking booth (medium shutter speed)
• b.) the food eating contest (slow shutter speed)
• c.) the rock climbing wall (medium shutter speed0
• d.) someone working at a booth (slow shutter speed)
• e.) the DJ/MC working at the middle of the circle ( medium shutter speed)
• f.) the Diamonds performance. (fast shutter speed)

Dark:

• a.) the dunking booth (slow shutter speed)
• b.) the food eating contest (medium shutter speed)
• c.) the rock climbing wall  (small shutter speed)
• d.) someone working at a booth (medium shutter speed)
• e.) the DJ/MC working at the middle of the circle (small shutter speed)
• f.) the Diamonds performance (fast shutter speed)

The three settings of the Camera:

Aperture, Manual & Shutter:

Aperture: It sets the lens automatically.

Shutter: Is when i set the speed but the aperture set by itself.

Manual: Is when i set everything by myself.

• F4 1/125
• F5.6 1/60 
• F8 1//60
• F11 1/30
• F16 1/15
• F22 1/8

As the aperture gets bigger the smaller the shutter gets.  F4 would look better with a shutter of 1/125 the background has better clear view. If you would put a lower shutter everything would look blurry like a shutter of 1/8.

In F4 the photo look blurry it has to much light that you can't see what happening on the picture. F5.6 is blurrier than F4 it has no more the only thing you can se is the light. F8, and F11 you can almost see the background buh the source of light is to strong. F16 and F22 need a little bit of a lower shutter and you would be able to see the background and couple in a better condition.
