auto ISO, f1.8, 1/425 For this image, I saw three different students interacting and thought it would be a cool moment to capture. I found that the arm of the chair could create a frame of them that captured the moment in a small box. I think this is particularly cool because no changes were […]

Blog Post#50: Using Props
auto IS0, f1.8, 1/5025 For this image, we needed to use props and Fiona is the star of using knives as props so I chose to use them as my subject weilding a knife at my camera. This photo is supposed to be funny rather than scary but the scary glare in their eyes can […]
Blog Post #47: Creative Staged + Depth of Field
auto ISO, f1.6, 1/7164 For this image I wanted to play around with the cool patterns in the chair and have the other chairs in the background. The background was blurred and the front was clear. The lighting and shadows with the pattern also added to the photo.
Blog Post #44: Viewpoint
For this image I was instructed to have a viewpoint. I took this pretty literally and captured this moment looking at a view from the east San Jose Mountains overlooking the city lights with a cloudy night sky. I wanted to capture both the moment and the view because the moment with this person was […]
Photo Blog #41: Color Theory
f/1.8, ISO 100, 1/91 For this image we were supposed to learn about color theory. What I found most interesting were about landscapes with colors that are opposite on the color wheel. I learned that blue and orange and purple and yellow are complementary colors. The sky in this landscape holds both blue and purple. […]
Blog Post #38:Rule of Odds
1000 ISO, f1.8, 1/80 For the image rule of odds, I learned that it was photographing subjects that are in groups of 3,5,7, and so on. I have a corsage that has a set of 3 white roses. This is meaningful to me because it is the first corsage I have been given in a […]
Blog Post #35:Rule of Thirds Emotion
ISO 800, f1.8, 1/100 For this image, I decided to photograph my hand. I thought that it would be really straightforward to show an emotional face on the third. Instead, I wanted to focus on the smaller details that can occur in conjunction with an emotion. The emotion I wanted to present was anxiety. Often […]
Blog Post #32:Fill the Frame
ISO 100, Aperature 22, Shutter Speed 3/5 For this image, I chose to take a photo of a deflated balloon that I have in my room. I felt that it was a subject that could fill the composition with a lot of detail while being the only object in view. It has many creases, it […]
Blog Post #29: Facial Symmetry
Image will not upload. For this image, I took a photo of myself and edited it to evaluate the symmetry of my face. It really shows the little details on your face that differ from side to side. I have a beauty mark on one edge of my mouth but not on the other side. […]
Blog Post #26: Geometry
For this image, I noticed that the wheels on my bike created a really interesting geometric pattern that would change depending on the angle that you looked at it. I decided to take this image pretty close up so that you can see the different diamonds and rectangles that it creates. I felt that the […]
