Visual Assignment: Path Less Traveled; 2 Stars

A little to the left.
This week we looked at photography and improving our own photography. We were given some tips from TEN which is a PDF which gives tips on how to take better pictures. One tip I really appreciated is understanding your lens, I use the camera on my phone so I can’t switch it out for a ultra zooming or wide angle lens or whatever else kinds of things they have for photography, I’m not a photographer. I noticed the that as I moved my camera closer in the pictures I took began to look grainy even though the iPhone camera is pretty decent. it can only get but so close before losing quality. I tried playing … Continue reading → -
3-2-1 BLITZ
PHOTO BLITZ. put as simply as possible, run around a room with a camera and take interesting pictures (there were some Ideas of what to take pictures of). These are the 5 pictures that I felt were the best… I did this in my room because I figured it was the area that had the most stuff to get ideas from. It’s fairly messy right now though but that just lets me see everything to give me ideas for pictures (that’s a good justification isn’t it?). I really had some fun with the Extreme angle shots which seemed to be my favorite photos, at least seemed like the ones that … Continue reading → -

Change of Emotion in Two Panels
