Mural Project Preview

1. I think a good theme around the school would be posting pictures of bulldawgs and cartoons of bulldogs.
2. I think we should only use phones so that other people that do not have high quality cameras may also use phones.
3. I think a place to post these pictures would be on the side of H-hall so that most people around the school can see it and admire it. also that s the only area around the school with open spaces that could fit a mural.

Great Black and White Photographers part 3

1. What first caught my eye with the black and white pictures was that they were all pictures of nature, and beautiful pictures of waterfalls.
2. I see the sun reflecting off of the calm surface of the lake, and the mountains on the other side. I can see the rainbow created by the mist of the waterfall and the suns rays coming into contact.
I can smell the relaxing scent of flowers and water. I can smell that smell after a rain storm.
I can feel the sun on my neck as I pose for the picture. I can feel the mist coming off the waterfall.
I can hear the deafening sound of the waterfall as it crashes into the river. I can hear the relaxing sound of birds singing and crickets chirping as the calm waves of the water hit into sandy shores surrounding the lake.
3. I think i would make posters and hang them up around the school, for the whole school to see and admire.

Christ Of the Abyss

I think it would be fun to take pictures there because it is underwater, and you would get to swim around and take photos. Also it is in Italy so that would be fun to go down there and swim around taking photos.

The one I will be working on is #1

Russian Village, Niigata, Japan

I would like to go to this park and take photos there because it is more colorful and not as creepy as other parks. I like the fact that they tried to make a Russian type village in Japan. I do not know why exactly but this park just seemed intriguing to me. I like that it has a church and a museum, you could get many cool pictures in those places.

Quote

"I'm not interested in creating work that is simply documentary or filled with action and drama, which has been the norm in the photography of animals in the wild. What I am interested in is showing the animals simply in the state of Being. In the state of Being before they are no longer are. Before, in the wild at least, they cease to exist. This world is under terrible threat, all of it caused by us. To me, every creature, human or nonhuman, has an equal right to live, and this feeling, this belief that every animal and I are equal, affects me every time I frame an animal in my camera. The photos are my elegy to these beautiful creatures, to this wrenchingly beautiful world that is steadily, tragically vanishing before our eyes."

Why does Nick Brandt Take these photos?

He takes these photos because in 1995 he went on a trip through Tanzania and instantly fell in love with the landscape and the wildlife. Now he takes thee photos to help preserve the land and the animals. He uses them to stop deforestation and the destruction of land so that the animals will not become rare or even extinct.
He hopes these photos will help the cause, so that animals will not lose their homes that they have had for millions of years.

Nick Brandt Camera and Lense

He uses a Pentax 67II with two fixed lenses. It is important because to get a good picture you need a good camera and a good lens. Cameras and lenses are everything in photography. Different cameras can have different effects on photos and the same with lenses.

My favorite picture

I cannot even begin to describe why I love this photo. It is just so beautiful, powerful, and clear. It is unbelievable how close he got to this animal, and how little attention it payed to him. It was there for one reason and that was to get a drink, not to be a model or attack him.
This picture follows the rule of simplicity and balance. It follows these rules because if you cut the picture in half it would be perfectly symmetrical, so it is balance. It follows simplicity because there is only one clear subject in the photo and nothing else draws attention away for that subject.

Reaction to Africa Pictures

I absolutely loved the photos that he posted. I am a huge fan of animals and wildlife, so most pictures with animals look good to me. But these pictures just blew my mind, they were so clear and so powerful. I wanted to say those had to be photoshopped but they are the real thing. I loved them.

Peer Reflection

 Period 1 ED

1. I think they did the best job with taking a picture of framing. She took a picture reflecting off a mirror and got a clear photo of the subject.

2. I do not believe they did the rule of thirds very well, because in the photo there is a tress leaning over a group of people and it obstructs the view.

3. Overall i think they did a pretty good job on their photos, she didn't take any photos where the subject looked at the camera or anything. Also she did a good job of demonstrating mergers.

4. I think she could improve on taking pictures with less mergers in the photos.

Academic Shoot Reflection

1. I found i was difficult to ask teachers and and gain entry into some classrooms because some had test being taken so they wouldn't let me in.
2. I mainly found myself thinking about the angle and the lighting while taking the photos.
3. I would not really change anything I did, for the most part I think I did everything correctly.
4. I would do most if not all of the same things I have already done.
5. I think simplicity is the easiest photo to get because, you only need a picture with one obvious subject and nothing else.
6. Framing is pretty hard to capture, because there is not always something framing the pictures for you.
7. I am the least sure of framing and balance, I could go back to the post where it told us all of the rules and gave us examples.
