| Asymmetrical Balance ISO 400, f/22, ss 1/4 ISO 400, f/22, ss 1/14 ISO 400, f/22, ss 1 I chose to make an HDR picture of my pond because of the sunset's colors and my family has a lot of memories fishing and canoeing in it. |

| Framing ISO 400, f/22, ss 1/4 ISO 400, f/22, ss 1/14 ISO 400, f/22, ss 1 I chose to make an HDR picture of the water trough through the fence because I liked the sunset in the background and I've always wondered why the trough was there, they never use it. |

| Leading Lines ISO 400, f/22, ss 1/4 ISO 400, f/22, ss 1/14 ISO 400, f/22, ss 1 I chose to take a picture of the road my house is on leading to the mountain because I really like how quiet my road is. |
 |
| Repetition ISO 400, f/22, ss 1/4 ISO 400, f/22, ss 1/14 ISO 400, f/22, ss 1 I chose this angle and edited it this way to make my house look old and creepy (because it is!). |

| Perspective ISO 400, f/22, ss 1/4 ISO 400, f/22, ss 1/14 ISO 400, f/22, ss 1 I made an HDR picture of the swing because my family has a lot of memories on it in our backyard. |

| Symmetrical Balance ISO 400, f/22, ss 1/4 ISO 400, f/22, ss 1/14 ISO 400, f/22, ss 1 I made an HDR picture of my house's old dinner bell because it shows how old my house is and I like the sunset's colors in the background. |
· What are your thoughts on HDR & the visuals they produce? I like HDR because it gives pictures more detail and makes some pictures look fake if you edit it that way.
· Do your images tell a story or are they just a collection of images? My images tell a story because they are all pictures on or around my property.
How has your relationship to making images changed in thinking about what you photograph? I like HDR, but I would still rather photograph sports and motion.
· How did light affect/change your photograph? Light played a big part in my pictures because it gave it a more interesting background.
Which picture goes with...
ReplyDeleteSymmetrical balance: The bell
Repetition / pattern: The stone house
Different point of view / perspective: The rope swing
Asymmetrical balance: The pond
Framing: Through the fence shot of the field
Lines (leading, diagonal, horizontal, vertical): The road leading to the mountain
Which photo has the best composition? Why?
I think the photo with the best composition is the shot of the pond because it looks unified, the colors contrast nicely, and it leads your eye through the photograph with the fence and the edge of the water. It doesn’t fill the frame entirely, but I think that doing that was a good call because it got more of the sky and made the picture look more surreal.
Which photo would you hang on your wall? Why?
I would probably hang the same one, the pond, on my wall because it looks like something out of a magazine. The whole thing just looks very beautiful and serene, and I would like to look at it and think of going there during the sunset.
Which photo could use a little work? What needs done? (composition/lighting/cropping/camera angle/camera technique)
I think the one of the rope swing could use a little work because, while the HDR in this photo is great and it is a great example of rule of thirds, there is too many other things distracting from the focus of the photo, the swing, like branches and the bush.
When looking at the entire set of images what do they say about the photographer? Can you determine anything about the person by looking at their photos? Do they tell a story or are they just a collection of images?
I can tell that they live in a rural area, and that they probably like it very much there. I don’t think that the pictures together tell any sort of story, they are just a collection of images, but they do all go well together.
