American Soldiers

The most powerful image in from the slideshow is the photo with a bunch of soldiers sitting next to the broken car and sitting inside it for their first assignment. It shows the hardship they're fight for to protect our country. They're very tired because of the sleepless night they had during that specific mission.

The sequence of the photos where the soldiers coming home and see their family for being out in the sea in a long period of time. It show the scarifices that people did by letting their most beloved one go to the army. How happy and joyful it is to see that person that you love in many years. For them to serve in the army to protect us all.

These images work really well by telling a story. It basicly tell lives of those who leave their family to go join the army and how much hardship they're been through. Starting from goodbyes, going to somewhere new, being trained for days, go out and be in a real field, from back to saying hello. The photos simply tell emotions throughout the photos by capturing the faces and scene of the story.

The verbs are explained as if it was happening right now, present tensed.

The captions describes the photo like it's happening right now as we are looking at it. It was like Ian's life happening right now and we are in it to experience it. The photos show step by step how he did in the army.

These other features makes it easier to access these photo in squence. By going next or previous, we can follow the photos like a story line, making it easier to understand the concept of the story. If there were none of this feature and just a compile of photos, We wouldn't know anything of the story or which event photos that comes first.

Videos show deep thoughts of the character that's being taken better than photos. It also show us the true and real meanning of each story from the photos. Any of us can just look at the photos and give our own thoughts on what each photos represent.

Photos are sometimes better than videos because it leaves us thinking about differents stories the photos carry. Sometimes a photo can show the emotion of the subject by capturing their action or faces. Also, photos benifits better than videos because they don't freeze to buffer and simple photos are easier to understand then some video which inclues high level wording.

Funny Captions

The little baby is crawling around the house in his new baby clothes. He dirty up his clothes by going outside with his parents.

Cool Video

I would like to see the people on the stands feature because I want to see their spirit in this homecoming video. The video should've started out with some photos that was taken from homecoming. Also the music is ok if you would try to take out the crowd noises. I reccomand to record the band playing the music just to get a high quality sound without the noises.

Instagram assignment

1. We can do a series of different style of clothings or shoes or interests that people do on their free time.
2. We should do regular cameras because some people don't have camera phones.
3. We should probably put it somewhere people can notice it, like the front office or the cafeteria or gym.

Warm Up ; HDR images

1. Cameras are often encoded in a raw image format, because of 8 big JPEG coding doesn't offer enough values to allow fine transitions. You can capture standard photos by using exposure bracketing, and then merge them into a HDR image.

2. A Canon T3 can take bracketed photos.

3. Yes, the track, the courtyard, the football field and much more.

I picked this photo because othe different color of the sky. It brings out the uniqueness in the photo.  Also It is very simple and the photographer used rules of third as his technique.

Fixed Photo Shoot

1. I learned how to set the ISO, change the F-stop and the Shutter Speed when taking the photo on the camera.

2. As the F stop increases, the pictures got darker and as the Shutter Speed increases, the picture get more blurry.

3. Yes I can tell the different between each ISO. The lower the ISO, The more quality and clear the picture is and the higher the ISO, The pictures turn grainny.

4. The ISOs control the quality and more focus and clear subject of the photos. When you change the ISO, the quality and clear image of the picture changes.

5. The focus on the subject is very clear. As the F-stop changes, the focus of the photos stays the same.

6. ISO 400

F4.5

 1/15 sec.

5 feet

Dim Light

18-22 mm

7. I need to look at my lighting and make sure there isn't any unnescesary shadow in my subject that i'm capturing. I also want to compare my distance and the focal length. Also to change my aperture when needed to make the picture stands out more.

What I Would Do?

I would take my best photos that i shoot, if nesscerary, maybe a photoshoot to show how skills I am. If I was to create  some kind of thing that can help me spread my photography. I would make a blog about it and Youtube is nescessary. Everybody nowday have a blog or have seen a blog, that is how news spread nowadsys. Youtube is the biggest website where people watch video and find out news about what's going on today. By making a blog, I can tell others to support me by spreading my link to other people and Youtube is the biggest place to get famous and easy recognition about my photos.

Black and White Photographers part 3

What caught my eyes was that the photos have a simple subjects which make it easier to see in black and white. I chose my photographers because of the simple scenary and the calm feeling of the pictures.

Picture # 1
I see a little pond full of water. There are tree/grasses/flower growing out of it. There is some kind of light post on the land in the background. I can see the reflections of the flowers/grasses in the pond.
I smell the outdoor nature and the fresh water of the pond. I can small the bright sun that's making the grasses/tree reflect through the water.
I hear frogs and the calm water. I can hear the wind whistling through the pond.
I taste  the fresh air and the cold water from the pond. The grasses/flowers in the pond along with the dirt.
I feel the pond water and grass growing in it. The flower must be wet because of the water in the pond. I feel as if i was on a small boat rowing in this pond.
Picture # 2
I see tree branches and a small human being in a square and the middle. I can see little sunlight in the background covering by the branches. Some of the branches are on top of each other making it look like it's sticking out of the picture.
I smell broken tree branches and that wooden smell. I small nature and the bright sun.
I hear crackling noises of the tree branch, the wind blowing by and noises inside the house from the human.
I taste wood from the branch and the dirt along with it.
I feel the tree branches roughness and splinters. I feel like the small square viewing the person is a window and the house is made of tree branches.
