1. I like the "your choice" image the most because it really shows my creative side, and because it took so long to master.

2. I looked at the shutter speed and found that your images look more smooth and natural if you move quickly with a fast(10 sec) shutter speed

3. We faced problems when we realized that most of these lights were too bright and washed out the image.

4. I would spend more time in the studio doing this if I knew how fun it was.

Studio practice part 2

1. Aarron B. is one of the coolest guys I know, he rides bulls and is a ranch hand. And he all makes it look so good.
2. Hes a very serious guy but he can be very funny at times this photo shows his serious side.

Landscape

1. I like this style of photography when I am taking pictures of people, landscape doesn't make sense.
2. Aarrons serious look inspired me, he looks like a bad man and its really cool.
3. I faced challenges when I said,"So hot Aarron" and he smiled, then he got serious again so it was ok.
4. Aarrons consistent stern look was very good for this project because he gave off the perfect tone for my photographs.
5. I would take more time on the portrait to get it right.

My favorite photo was the post-twilight one, the lighting was perfect and shes really cute. My inspiration was to find a perfect lighting at golden hour for most of my portraits. I mostly just focused on my shutter speed to make sure the lighting wasn't off. I faced problems with my exposure to begin with. I had to keep changing my shutter speed to get a preferred light.

I had upgraded the exposure, value, vibrancy, saturation, and increased the shadows

Challenges: How low can you go?

This flower was like maybe 6 inches off the ground I made it look high up by getting super low to the ground.

Challenge: Blue

I thought the blue sky looked very nice over our amazing pavilion.

Float

ISO: 100  f/: 3.5  SS: 1/2000
I was trying to tell a story of how school makes my future soar, get it? soar.
The problems I faced consisted of where I was jumping, how high I was jumping, and my facial expression while I jumped. I fixed all of these in the process of taking two shots. I faced challenges while trying to find the right shutter speed because most of my pictures were too fast and came out really dark, so we re positioned to a brighter area of the school.

Blur

ISO: 100 f/: 22 1/15 sec

My inspiration for this picture was to make the photo look like a crime scene that is uneasy due to the blur at the front of the photo. I faced technical challenges when I made the shutter speed too slow and made the picture too bright and uneasy to look at. So I kept making the shutter speed faster so the picture wouldn't be as bright. I couldn't find any natural object moving fast so I went out and found caution tape to mess with. Next time I would be more patient for something cool to come along and take a picture of it.

I was trying to tell a story of a snail being stomped over and the cops came to solve the murder. I came across challenges when I started taking pictures and I tried taking photos of flowers and I realized I wasn't supposed to. I found that looking for things in unusual places will help you in finding unique things.
