Winter Photo Session

Just some random photos from winter!










EYE ILLUSION:

Night Photography ~DONE~

In this assignment you will produce 10 night time pictures. There is only one requirement, you can not use your flash. Use instead the natural light sources around you ie. street lamps, yard lights, car lights and the moon. If you are using a 35 mm SLR camera open your aperture as wide as it goes so that you can absorb as much light as possible, and slow your shudder speed down. It is very important when you are doing this to either have your camera on a stationary surface or use a Tri-Pod to avoid camera shake and blur. Be creative consider the elements of photography and different perspectives

Capturing Movement ~DONE~

There are many different strategies for creating the illusion of movement, whether it be using the camera, or modifying it using Photoshop. Make sure you label each picture and summarize the photo technique and the editing tools you used. Have fun and good luck!

Take 10 photos using different movement techniques. Remember be creative and use a variety of different techniques. Each photo is assessed out of 9. Make sure you assess and document your strategies.

Landscapes ~DONE~

In this assignment you are going to compose some land scape photos. Consider some of the options you learned in your composition assignment. High and low horizon lines,  framing and the use of depth of field. Landscapes should not include a major subject ie. a person or animal in the photo. Also it is a good idea to consider the effects lighting has on your image. This time of year there are some excellent atmospheric conditions due to the cold weather that produce some fantastic cool colours especially in the morning when the sun begins to rise.  Different perspectives Also add interest. But most of all try and find interesting places that have unique qualities. Good luck on this project and have fun!

Take 10 different types of landscape photos. Choose different locations, and different lighting conditions.
