Master Photo's

                                         Master Photo's

            My group chose Minor White, he is known as taking black and white photos. Minor White was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He got his degree in minor English his first great accomplishment was creative poetry. In 1938 he moved to Oregon and began doing photography.  He also served in the military during World War II. After serving in the military Minor moved to New Yoek and studied to develop his own style.   He inspired children to take photos by creativity and emothions. Minor White was a good teacher he wanted his students to have talent and to be able to take good photos.
           My group and I was inspired by Minor White's work because he wanted to influence his student to be a good photographer. His photos is based on emotion i think its important because you can see the real meaning of the photo. Minor Whites beautiful pictures encouraged me to take good photos. When reading about Minor White I began using his tips in my photos. I would like to study more about Minor in order to be a better photographer.Minor white was a very successful man and i plan on being just like him.
           This are the photos i took of people smiling because they are showing that they are happy. I like my photos because i asked random teacher and people who worked at the school to take a photo of. Each person i took a photo of was really happy and smiled for the camera. I stopped people in the hallway because they look happy and smiled for the camera.

This last photo I took of my group off gaurd walking together. I really believe this is a good black and white picture of my groups. All of my photos are in black and white and i tried to catch emotion and i edited it to show my creativity.

                                          Minor White 

My group and i picked Minor White because we loiked his black and white photos. Minor White was born on July 9, 1908 and died June 24,1976. He began taking the role of a photgrapher in 1938 when he moved to Portland, Oregon. The picture White liked to take was barns, doorways, water, and the sky. His most famous picture is called Frost on Window.  White wanted to capture emotion, a symbol that creats his meaning of what he is capturing. I acknowledge his work because they are really beautiful in balck and white.  I would like to take picture and learn more  about Minor White. 

Frost on Window

These are two photos that was taken by Minor White. Notice these pictures both have to do something about frost and they are both black and white.

I picked these 10 links beacuse they show me alot of things that you could do in photography. Many of them had alot of different ways to take a picture. I picked alot of links that had to do with outdoor because in adv. photo we are always outside. I learned new ways to take picture hopefully i could try them one day. I could take better portraits by studying my new links.

Cropping Photos

In these photos i cropped out all of the places that was taking up space on the first photo. I cropped out the grass and some of the sides. on the second photo i angled it and blur the sides to make it look a little bit better.

Rule Of Thirds

In my group we picked the Rule of Thirds. Rule of thirds is a picture that is not in the middle you focus the picture more on the  left or the right side. In these photos i edited it a little bit, i cropped out the corners so you could focus more on the person that is on the left side of the picture. The rule of thirds was a very fun assignment to do. My group and i really enjoyed it. We picked rule of thirds because it was really fun to take picture of people in the corner instead of the middle. 

Camera Review

1. This is a new canon camera i believe this camera could take very nice photos. The flash on this camera comes out only when it is needed. You could see on a screen on the back on the back of the camera to see what you took. You can take photos from far away you just have to adjust the lens so the picture comes out clear. I think this camera could be the best thats ever been made.  This camera could be one a very nice camera to take photos with. 

PhotoBooth

GLOW
I picked glow because it makes your face really stand out and this is one of my favorite effects.

NORMAL 
I used normal because i shows the real me with no effects.

MIRROR

TWIRL
I pick twirl because its very funny & im a very silly person that like t make funny faces all the time.

TERMAL CAMERA

Cropping Composition Concert Photos

My original and cropped photos. My original photos are the three first ones at the top. My cropping photos are just underneath. I picked these three pictures because they were the ones with the most black and i really wanted to crop out all the black & focus more on the person.

Composition and Composers Assignment

The rules for composition is making the right decision on how you frame your picture. You have to make it interesting and getting people engaged. It is the most important things in photography. You can take picture horizontal or vertical. you decide how you want to take the photo. In order to get better you  could take pictures almost everyday.

First assignment looking at light.

The light was reflecting of my earring you could see the shadow of the hoop. You could see how the light was on the people in my group. There wasn't really that much light that was reflecting on us. It was really intersting to see how the light could reflex off my & clothing my earrings.
