Homework 10-25-2011

This is a picture of 3 candles, I tried to line them up in a arrow like shape. Sadly, they were to close together to create that effect. I pretty much messed with the colors a little bit.

For this one I laid down and shot the leaves at a very very close range. I blurred some stuff sot that it would seem like you would be focusing just on the leaves in like the middle. For this one I messed with colors and sharpened and blurred it.

This is a tree on the side of the road. I boosted up the red so that you could really see the red on the tree.

On this one I blurred the grass a little and sharped the edge of the side walk. I also blacked out some lights.

This is in my backyard of a grape vine, the leaves are turning yellow so that is pretty fall. I tried blurring some stuff as well.

What kind of photography do you like?

I most of the time see the world as a sad troubled place, we aren't fixing any of the problems we created or anything! I don't really have very much that inspires me, some photos inspire me, some of the "city at night" photos I feel inspired by, I don't really have someone who inspires me. I just see people I want to aspire to.

Ways I see my personality through my photography is that I like to have cool angles and most the time be up close but really clear at the same time. Also I like having some things in the photo blurred out so that its a design in the photo. Some hobbies of mine are going on my computer and not doing anything importent. I also like to watch TV and play video games. I think that its sometimes fun just to think about something or try and remember a path to somewhere in my head and I really like to read a comic book while I eat.

Genres I like in photography are cities as well as some wildlife landscape. I really like doing cities (I think it would be cool to do parks) at night.

What I like...

Things I like are, Traveling, trees, those cool photos of city highways at night, video games, drawing rarely when i'm bored as well as Tesla's, (a electronic sports-car that is super super super expensive) the season of winter and rainy days.

Why I like the season of winter is that there are no bee's out as well as I just like it cold. I mean so would you rather be in a house that had no A/C or heating in hot weather or cold? If its cold then you can just dump like six blankets on you and be done with it. Also a added bonus is that there are no bee's out.

I like rainy days because they just seem really quiet and make you want a cup of hot chocolate. One of the down sides is that it makes you not want to do anything.

Somethings that I don't like are bee's, homework, spiders and the sound of people snoring. Now just know those are only a coupe of things that just come off the top of my head.          I don't like bee's because whenever I run around barefoot I always look down in case there is one that i'm about to step on.

What I hope to learn this year

What I hope to learn this year is how do you do the cool city freeway pictures that have the car lights blurred and that just make awesome pictures. I want to learn how to make really cool Panorama's and just be able to take some pictures and turn them into a really cool panorama photo. Then also this year I want to learn computer design since it just seems like something that is really interesting to do.


This year I want to get to the point where I can sell my pictures for road-trip money.

Thanks so much Jonny for teaching this year!
