Action Photography

Does the action show faces/emotion? No, the the face of the snowboarder is covered up.
Does it show the ball/equipment used? Yes, the snow board is there but the angle makes it hard to see.
Does it show people moving? Yes, the the snowboarder is in mid air in the middle of a flip.
Does it have good lighting? Yes, the the snowboarder it lit up enough to see clearly and there are no shadows.
Is it cropped? No, the photo does not seem to be cropped.
Is it Blurred? Yes, the photographer used shallow depth of field so the background is blurry but the snowboarder is not.

5 things to keep in mind
Plan ahead
Adjust your camera (burst)
Subject space
Keep subject defined (focus)
Use a face for emotion
5 moving things to shoot
Cat
Car
Athlete
Bird
Motorcycle




I choose these three subjects because they had the best composition out of all of the action photos I took.
I was challenged by the blur, I had a hard time focusing on the subject while in motion.
I over came the challenge by taking multiple pictures at once and then looking through each of them until I find the best one.
My biggest strength was timing, I tried my best to take the picture at the right moment.
In order to get the best composition I cropped a couple of the photo to draw the attention to the right subject.
I used a face for emotion in my first picture, and I kept subject space and focus.

Elements and Principles of Design

Image
I was given Emphasis which is a principle of design. Emphasis is the part of the design that catches the viewers attention. Usually the artist will make one area stand out by contrasting it with other areas. The area will be different in size, color, texture and shape. The picture above is an example of this because, the white color of the space around the fire alarm, makes the red of the alarms to catch the viewers attention.

PENGUIN        In the foreground of our box, you will see a single penguin next to a group of four other penguins.  In the middle ground of our box, you will see a polar bear to the right of the group of penguins, and an airplane that is hanging from the top of the box with fishing line.  In the background of our box, you will see two hot air balloons a large group of penguins and a man riding a horse.  One thing I would change about our box would be the fore ground because I the pictures we used weren't in the best place. Our strongest area of our box is the original background and the sky because they are the things that look the best.

History of Photography

The First Camera was important because the art has been around since the 5th century. but didn't come alive until the 11th century when a Iraqi scientist created the camera obscura, which didn't actually take pictures, but projected an image onto another surface. The First Permanent Images (Daguerreotype, Emulsion Plates, Dry Plates)  were important because it was the first time time pictures could be captured for more than a few seconds. Some types of processes actually lead to the advancement of cameras and allowed them to be smaller and faster.  Camera For Everyone  was important because George Eastman made camera film in the form of a roll. that allowed cameras to be small enough to be handheld. the film size also allowed for most people to be able to afford a camera. The Horrors of War  were important because it changed the way people viewed photography. More and more people were starting to steer away from portraits and move on to life as it happens. The W...
