This represents Balance
The subject is the saying Your minds In Tech Times
It's the main purpose was technology because there are computers and it is saying that and it's very big and bold.

This represents Merger
The subject is the girl on the left because she kinda looks mad and you look at her first instead of the girl facing the back.
The subject isn't very clear because it's blurring her out a little bit I couldv'e focused on her more plus this was a merger and it was supposed to be busy in the back ground.

This is simplicity
The subject is the snakes face hiding in the mulch.
The subject is very clear because it is focusing on the snakes little hard peeking out and it's very simple looking.

Great black and white Photographers Part 2

Irving penn was an amazing photographer He was celebrated as one of the Vogue magazine's top photographers for more than 60 years. Penn was also a very private man who avoided limelight and did his work with dedication. At the time photography was a way of communication, and he approached it that way in his professional way and personal work.

Penn was born in 1917 in Plainfield New Jersey to immigrate parents, he attended the Philadelphia Museum School of Industrial Arts from 1934-38 and studied with Alexey Brodovitch and their design labratory. Brodovitch taught him modern art and design through magazine, architecture, and photography. Penn went to New York as Brochovitchs assistant at Harpers Bazaar. Penn then went to Mexico in 1941 traveling to American south to take photos. Lisa Penn's wife died in 1992 and had really hard times going through it. In 2009 Penn died in New York at the age of 92. During Penn's lifetime he established the Irving Penn Foundation, which grew so much and who carry Penn's legacy.   https://www.irvingpenn.org/biography/

Academic shoot preview. 2012 winners

I chose this picture because I really thought it was cool because it was the paint going down into a garbage bag and the photo caught that. I think some rules of photography are balance with the girl pouring the paint and the paint. Also simplicity because it was really simple  like there's not a lot going on in the photo.












I liked this photo because I think it was cool from a different angle and it was black and white. There are some lines in this picture with the book shelves and the hallway with the kid in the middle of it. Also it's simplicity because it's simple and he's just reading. I like how some books were open and some were not and the angle was from up top and not center with the person but above.






I think some places I could go that I didn't think to go to is the library and shoot with books, or computers, or anything else.

Any classroom maybe different kinds of classrooms like dance class, or theatre class, or math class to get different perspectives on them and how they are different.

Some ways to get amazing photos are try from a different angle, or a different setting from the camera and go to places I haven't been and do something different I haven't one already in a picture.

This tells a story because this boy is doing a girl manakins hair and he is smiling while he is doing it so it looks like he's enjoying it. It's telling that he is doing what he loves and is being himself, I think the story is telling to always be your self in what ever you do and not be ashamed of it.


This photo shows excitement and action and emotion through different scenes. The lady in the picture looks is playing her part so well because she has emotion into her acting. All the actors around her are also pouring their hearts out and the audience is reacting to the actors because they are putting so much into it. The actors are singing and it really looks like their having fun.

This photo I thing is very interesting because it was shot at the perfect time and it is in focus and it's super cool because fire sparks are coming out. Also it's blurry in the back of the picture so it's focusing on the fire and the girl. I think the frame is filled because its focusing on the fire and the girl not anything else in the frame.

Post Shoot Reflection

Post Shoot Reflection

1. Some challenges were trying to find places that match these prompts. Like for happy there isn't a happy face ready for a photo so I had to improvise so I used flowers which make people happy and me happy. Also trying to find something bowie was kinda hard because I wanted to make it cool to see that it was bowie high school but didn't want to give it away so I took a picot of a bull dog to represent bowie.

2. Some ways I tried to make my photos unique are holding the camera different ways, or going on a different setting, or blurring out the background and focusing on something. Like for focusing on a flower and blurring all the extra stuff out.

3. I changed the position of the camera or the setting of the camera to find the right angle for my composition to get the right picture and right photo.

4. Yes, I did have some compositions they were Framing, Rules of third, Simplicity, and lines.
For lines of used the hallway and the floor were lines leading forward, also the losers leading from one side of the photo, on the other side of the photo was windows leading from side to side and they were all leading forward. For framing I used these tall posts and they were all in a row and it looked like a square and it was framing a square into a square over and over again. Another one is rule of thirds. I did Bowie and did a picture of a bulldog and leaves were all around it. on one side was the bull dog and on the other was greenery leaves and it was focusing on the Bulldog. Last one I did was simplicity and this was a flower and it was just focusing on the flower and the background was plane and was not busy at all.

5.Yes, I really enjoyed doing that because that's something different that I don't usually do when I  take pictures so it was really fun.

6.  I think 3 prompts would be fun are doing season prompts trying to find winter, fall, summer, and spring.

Another one doing different sports and comparing them and see how different they are but they are all great. like swimming would be cool to get underwater.

One more I feel like would be great is to only have something simple with few supplies and take pictures with the because they could be something really cool but simple and different and people may not now that they were with simple objects but it was really cool.

Partner Review

I really liked Sadie's pictures they were really clear and really showed the prompt and the composition.

 Sadie didn't really have much time to do these pictures and I think she did really good with what time she had also I really like the last pic she had because it was focused and then it was blurry and I thought that was really cool.

Something she could improve in is really getting those pictures persise and maybe a little more detailed and I get she didn't get much time but if she did get more levels in your photos and different angles.
