Lanscape Activity 3

These are two completely different arts but of the same place. They are similar in the way the they both have the same meaning and some what the same look to it. The differences are the angles that the beaches are portrayed. Also a big difference between the two photos are the color schemes. The one on the left uses a bright and more vibrant color scheme but the one on the bottom uses more of a darker color scheme making it look more like a dream filled place.

Landscape Activity 2

I think what the photographer is trying to portray that the nature is staring the dwindle and the humans are just taking over and not caring for the environment and soon it will all be gone because not enough people care for it.

The photographer, I think is trying to say that nature is a beauty and you do not have to be in the city life to have a great life. Also to enjoy nature while its still here because cities are getting larger and expanding more and soon there might not be as much as there used to be.

Landscape Activity 1

This picture shows tombstones and crosses with factories in the background of the photo. Yes, this photo can be considered art first of all because anything that is captured is a work of art. Secondly this uses rule of thirds which is a form of art. I think that the picture means the work conditions back then in the factories were awful and lead to death because the owners did not take care of the employes and let them suffer in the bad working conditions.

Time Activity 4

The main subject of the photo is the wave crashing down. The biggest difficulty the photographer had was waiting for the wave to crash as perfectly as it did in the photograph. Waiting is the key to overcoming this photo. This picture definitely shows movement because you see the wave crashing and the mist of it washing away over the top.

Time Activity 2

The main subject of the photo is the liquid being splashed. The difficulties the photographer had were probably trying to get the right shot because trying to get the one splash at the right moment is very hard. The only way to do this and overcome this difficulty is just to keep doing this until you get the shot you like. This photograph gives you a feeling of moment because you can see that the water is being splashed and you can see the ripples of the water.

Time Activity 1

I think this picture uses the two men being arrested as a good use of quality  because the picture would only be a wall somewhere but now the picture can tell a short story by just looking at it.

I think that the kids are broken down to their last limb of life gives this picture great quality because with out them you would only see a broken wall but with the kids it shows what else is going n in the area.

Light Activity 4

 This is an example of shallow depth of field because the two girls in the picture are the main focus of the picture and the water and sand at the beach are out of focus making it shallow depth of field.

This is an example of shallow depth of field because the girl holding the surfboard is in focus and the waves in the background are out of focus.

 This is an example of great depth of field everything in then photograph is in complete focus.

This is an example of great depth of field because the truck full of stuff and girls and also the trees and the skyline are all in focus making it great depth of field because the photograph is not focused on just one thing.

Light Activity 3

The photographer uses the sun in the picture to emphasize the the girl's body but they didn't want to show the color they only wanted the outline of her.

The photographer uses the sun in the picture to make everything black and make an outline of the dream catcher and the girl and not showing color only outlining it.

Light Activity 2

This picture only uses one light source. The light source that this photo uses is the sun. as you can see the wave is crashing over the surfer and the bright light is the sun.  

This is an example of a photographer using two light sources for their pictures. The photographer not only uses the sun for a light source they also use flash to bring out the girl's features.

Light activity 1

This is an example of hard lighting because the photographer is using the sun as the light resource which creates the photo to have dark shadows and the lighting is not evenly distributed.

 This is an example of soft lighting because the photographer used a studio with lighting which makes the picture have soft shadows and the lighting is even through out the whole picture.

Frame and Composition Activity 2

1. John Szarkowski means that any photo that has been taken by a photographer will become art and there is basically no right or wrong type of picture in photography.

2. The public was probably shocked by the painting because it is most realistic and looks like it could of been taken by a camera than an unrealistic and fake painting.

Frame and Composition Activity 4

This is an example of an imbalanced photo because the main subject is the bike and is steals most of the attention making it imbalanced.  

This is an example of Balanced photography because the foot that isis close to the camera to make it seem big and the longboard is further back in the photo making it look smaller therefore these two subjects balance each other out making it a balanced photo.

Frame and Composition Activity 3

This is an example of rule of thirds because the girl holding the long board and looking away is in the left side focal point drawing all the attention to that side making it rule of thirds.

This is an example of rule of thirds because the guy in bike is in he top left focal point of the rule of thirds guide lines and this is drawing the eyes to the top left because it follows the guide lines as it should.

This is not an example of rule of thirds because the girl on the longboard is right in the middle of the photo which makes the photo completely full and doesn't draw the attention to one side.

This is not an example of rule of thirds because the girl with the surfboard is taking up the whole photo which is making the photo full and not drawing attention the one thing or side of the photo. 

Frame and Composition Activity 1

This picture shows a close up of the candle burning and it uses a simple black background making the burning candle the the focus point of the photo.

This picture is focusing on the blue flower making the background be blurred allowing the flower to be the main focus.
