Academic Shoot Reflection and Critique

1. Challenges that occurred while I was taking these photos was that it was hard just to find academic things to take photos of in our limited time. I also thought that when we did find a good subject, it was hard to work around the classroom and all of the people in it to get a good shot.

2. I thought about the angle of the photo the most. One photo where I believed that I did it really well was in my simplicity photo, I got just the right angle so that there was nothing on the wall behind my subject.

3. If I could redo the assignment then I would make my subjects more clear and focused.

4. I think that if I were to do this again then I would keep the angles in which I took the photo.

5. I think that simplicity will be the easiest rule to preform correctly.

6. I think that the hardest rule to preform correctly will be the rule of lines.

7. I am not totally clear on the rule of mergers. I think that I can go back and look at correct examples that other people have and learn from them.

Feed back:
1. Most of her subjects are very clear.
2. The focus is very clear on her subjects, and she blurred the background perfectly.
3. I think that she should have made her subject more clear in her rule of thirds photo.

ISO

ISO 200

1. It would be better to shoot a basketball game or football game with a higher ISO so that your photo would not be blurry.
2. The author suggested that you should uses low ISO when there is a lot of light so that the detail will stay high quality.
3. The author said that you should use high ISO she there is not much light, or you are not using flash.

Settings
1. Aperture Priority is when the camera sets the shutter speed and you set the aperture.
2. Shutter Priority is when the camera sets the aperture and you set the shutter speed.
3. Manual is when you set both the shutter speed and the aperture.

Aperture

F2.8

F16

1. Aperture should be closely related to the human eye.

2. The smaller the aperture the more light gets let in, the larger the aperture the less amount of light gets let in. 

3. Aperture impacts Depth of Field because the smaller aperture, the less of the background that you can make out. 

Great Black and White Photographers Part 2

Ansel Adams

Ansel Adams was born on February 20, 1902 in San Francisco, California and died on April 22, 1984 in Monterey, California. He was in school for a short period of time when he was younger, but got dismissed many times from many different schools due to his behavior. Because of that, he would end up being privately tutored until he was 12 years old. Ansel's first big break through would be a portfolio that he published called "Parmelian Prints of the High Sierras". He then built his reputation for years after that. He then became the editor of a magazine called "US Camera" and he also taught at the Art Center School of LA. Ansel did not ever publish any books.
