Lighting Homework

This photo was taken at 5:40. I like the lighting in this one the best. It was right after the sun had set. 

Lighting Homework

This image was taken around 12:30 in the afternoon. It was a pretty cloudy day so it didn't have the brightness that I would have liked.

Lighting Homework

This is the picture I took at 6:20 in the morning. It is right outside of my house so it was a pretty easy shot to get. It's not the best, but it shows the different light well.

Landscape Photo

I chose this landscape photo because I feel that this is a good example of Vermont Highway landscape. Whenever I am driving towards New Hampshire I always see these rock walls and I like the way they look. I think in the fall it is much prettier, but it still looks good with the snow and sparse trees. I would have liked it to come out better, but it does depict the landscape well. I took many pictures of these rock walls, but the lighting outside wasn't the best and it was getting difficult to keep pulling over on the highway. When I was reading the link about landscapes there was one part in landscape as a process talking about eroding, cracking, and crumbling and whenever I see these rocks that's what I think of so that's why I chose this photo. I learned that landscape is whatever is natural to you and whatever you see in nature, it could be your backyard or a mountain, as long as it's what you see outside then it can be your landscape.

Rule of Thirds Homework


This is my actual rule of thirds photo. I like it a lot better then the one with the wind chime in the center. Your eye is drawn right to the wind chime and it looks like a better photo. Overall, the rule of thirds made this a better looking photo but I still don't like it too much.

Rule of Thirds Homework


This is my photo that does not have the rule of thirds incorporated. I also decided to use the information I learned about my camera by changing the photo into black and white. I think black and white photos add a different element and make them look better. I wasn't sure what to take photos of for this assignment, but I looked up in my mom's house and found her wind chime so I figured, why not just do that.

Framing Homework



This is the photo I chose for the framing homework. I chose it because it had a natural frame around it and then it looks like there is another frame with the silver lining around the coke sign. I don't really like this photo, but I think it qualifies as framing. I also took lots with door frames and windows, but I thought this might be a little more original.
