In a lot of the photos we looked at this week, I found myself in awe of the photographer’s ability to catch a specific action that I knew only went on from a moment in time. Like the dip of a dancer or the second-long smile of an individual. You know that the photographer used […]

David Griffin’s Ted Talk made me realize that I am using my camera how I want to. Griffin did a fantastic job of explaining how photos can tell a story, be educational, and lead to change. My favorite part of the talk was the story of how the photographer found a new way of looking at the slums of Mumbai, India. After browsing the four links Professor Bond provided, I

80’s Photography

I LOVED looking at all the old 80s photos!! It was so fun to look at what people were wearing and doing at my age during the 80s. I especially loved looking at the 1980s Music and Pop Culture Photography. One of my favorite photos from this site was one of Freddy Mercury. I love the way that the photographer used the light in the photo (which was one of the tips in the Telling Stories In Photos article). The angles of Freddy along with the brightness of the sun make for a super dynamic and interesting photo. Another photo […]

The aspects of photography that I saw in this picture were the use of lighting, the sun beams in the background which didn’t negatively affect the picture as you can still see the details and the crowd in the background. With the foreground/background aspect I see the singer as the main objective in the foreground, …

Selection – The photographer did not such snap a random photo they decided a very specific photo to get this incredible photo.

This moment tells us the James Ramone is pretty happy about singing. I would say the background is the audience and is mostly in the same color […]

This is the website where I chose the pictures to focus on. The tactics taken into account when viewing and evaluating these images were selection, contrast, perspective, depth, balance, moment, lighting, and foreground/background. Within this photo, I first see the main object, which is the singer Freddy Mercury. The contrast between the black and white really pops here. The dark background of the crowed makes the singer pop because he is in all white. I also see another focal point in this image other than the singer. The bright white light on the left is the sun coming into the

What makes a photo iconic? What makes it a good story? After reading, Becoming a Better Photographer, I had a pretty good idea. To tell a story, you need to capture the moment. The mood.
