Homework for someone else

Take 40 pictures of things that represent food. I want you to pick 3 colors the objects have to be. So you can only take pictures of objects that remind you of food and within those 3 colors. Now I wan't the main thing in the image to be at least one of those colors that you chose. All the images have to be different. Pick your best 30 and put them on a contact sheet. Write 2-4 paragraphs about the assignment so that next time I can give you something better.

What I liked and didn't

This assignment at first seemed like one of HUGE proportions. I mean on the white board a school it seemed like a lot, but on the blog it seemed much smaller. So when I first started this assignment I started very early on into thanksgiving break but I decided that I didn't like how it went so I stopped. I just didn't like the object I had chosen.
I think that it was difficult to try and be imaginative at finding angles and lighting for your photos. I couldn't figure out how to get my camera's flash off so the lighting changes I made weren't very useful. I would have to try and think up brand new ways fot it to look different in the other ones, but I guess that was the point of the assignment, to find new perspectives. The part that was kind of easy was in the beginning, I mean when you first start out there are a whole bunch of points that you haven't taken pictures from, I mean you can really just go anywhere.

Summery and photos

Patrick Endes is a photographer who lives in Alaska. I noticed that in one of the photos the water was blue! I think he might have highlighted that a little bit. He shoots up close and from a distance but what I have noticed is that in almost all of the photos I saw that he took there was always some mountains. It wasn't just portrait where you could see mountains, he made them part of the picture.

I picked this photo because it reminded me of a path. Leading away into endlessness

 In this one I liked how the clouds interacted with the mountains on the left side.

For this photo I liked how the rock is the center point and the colors of the rock

I liked how the water just streams across the rocks in a blur

For this photo I was so caught by the blueness of the water

I really liked the yellowness of the rocks

I enjoyed how the rocks and how the water seems wispy

It was interesting how the mud looks like little mountains

I like how the mountains are reflected by the clear water

I thought it was creative how he made the grass the dominating part while the rocks are just behind it but make it more creative.

Patrick Endres Paper

Patrick Endres

By Caeden Brusett

Patrick Endres is a photographer who lives in Fairbanks Alaska. He has lived there for almost thirty years. Alaska still amazes him. But he first started out living in Wisconsin. At age eighteen he decided to go and see Alaska and fell in love with it. 

In his professional career he has taken about 30,000 photos of a span of seven-teen years. In my opinion that is a lot. Although to real photographers that might to be very much. He is a freelance photographer and several of his photographs have been seen in many Magazines.

His special is doing theme images in Alaska such as wildlife, nature, people and landscapes.  He mostly does assignments that people give him as well as stock photography. 

The type of camera’s he uses is digital, he uses a Canon EOS 1 series with a 5D Mark II for the light hiking and landscape body. He (like all professional photographers) has different lenses for different purposes. He doesn't use Photoshop, he uses “Lightroom image processing and database management. 

Patrick Endres seems like a very interesting photographer as well as a interesting person. Some of his photos are in children's books besides the magazines. He finds Alaska a very mythical place full of wonder and adventure. He has had a fascination about the colors of the photo as well as the lighting in the photo. Light is a very important part of picture because it gives texture to the photo as well as giving the picture a certain feel to it and it can have you focus on a certain point in the image. I hope that he shoots many more photos.

Lasso tool photo

This is a photo of my ten thumbs certificate. What I did to it was that I deleted the dwarf pointing down at my score. I used the lasso tool and first to get most of him and then I just colored the rest white.
