Bright Idea

UGH, I have no idea what to do for my final portfolio... I'm thinking... either shooting things that rhyme with world, or buildings, or signs, or just writing a story with my pictures.

I think I will do things that rhyme with world... that will be fun :)

Purple into black and white... beautiful

Portraits

These three pictures took a lot of time, and they're still not right. I re-shot the two of my sister two times and she was super impatient all times. That's why her eyes aren't glittering and she looks like she's about to puke. I was rushed to shoot my dad. He was watching tv, it was late, not a very good time to take picture. But for some reason, I liked this picture. I like the content of it. I liked the way my little brother was at an angle that was looking up to my dad. But that piece of hair that's sticking up and is cut out of the frame on my dad's head really bugs me.

This assignment was fun, and I enjoyed it. I liked to take pictures of people and not just

objects. I would really like to do this again, and re-shoot a lot, but I need to do these on time and not be so rushed. I liked to capture the expressions of different people. I love showing people why this person is angry, or sad, or happy, or terrified. Although I didn't do this very well on this assignment, if I ever get the opportunity to spend lots of time with portraits, I will do it much better.

P.S.

There will be 3 more photos on here tomorrow :))

Re-do Assignment 1

Hopefully this will make up for my first assignment. I mean get me a better grade.... I really really hope so ;)))

That stupid picture of the milk pouring into the cereal... I dislike it very much because the black corner would not work with me. I wanted it to be lighter, but I guess it kinda draws more attention to the bright white stinking milk.

I like the sliced bread picture because of the darks of the crust that contrast with the soft lights of the insides.

Color Adjustments

Aspiration

These are types of photos I aspire to shoot like:














This one, on account of it shows his personality and part of who he is... a hobo-type man who may not be religious, but he is spiritual...

Aside from his geee-ORGEOUS eyes, I like this photo because of the light that's hitting his face. I like how the left side of his face blends into the darkness, and he's wearing a black shirt, so it looks like all there is, is his head and neck that are chopped off. His hair blends with the blackness, and I like the way the dark makes his face POP :P

I love how this shows his pouty face... almost. It's cute. No, I didn't just say that... this little boy being cute is not the only reason I like this photo. I like how it shows a "relationship" with his teddy bear. I also love the background. It doesn't take away from the subject, and I also like the color green. Tis' a happy color :)))

This is an example that I don't like as much. I don't like the background. The man sitting in the chair is very distracting from the message this photo is TRYING to relay.

I LOVE ROMANCE! I wish I could have a relatioship like this one... tear tear. Anyway, I don't really like this photo because it's too dark. It looks... musty... and the light spot in the right corner draws attention away from the picture.

CIRCUS FREAK!!!! Scary!!!! (shows personality)

This is the most stupid stupid stupid STUPID photo in the ENTIRE world. This would be my grandma, and I didn't take her into very good light when I shot this photo, so it's very very VERY gray. I hate this photo I hate this photo I hate this photo. Stupid stupid stupid stupid! UGH!!!! This is so dumb. Stupid grandma.
