Photo 7- Still Life


For the last photo assignment I did Still life/ product. I went around and found things with unique shapes and color ranges and took photos of them. It took some time but I got some good ones. This week I also decided to experiment with the effects and editing because I felt the pictures looked cooler with it.  I learned that Its easy to take still life pictures as long as you have the right light.

BLACK & WHITE


For the black & white assignment I did, I went around taking random shots. I really liked this photo I chose because it had a large variety of tones. It really emphasizes the black & white assignment. I learned that not all pictures look good in black & white, so its not a easy assignment but it gets easier as you go.

Color Splash!



For this assignment I chose to do my own type of picture. I chose to do pop color or called color splash. I had to find things where there were many varieties of colors and I it took awhile but I found some. I chose this picture as my favorite because it had a lot of elements I liked, I liked how it was off to the side and only the blue sprinkles showed. I learned that color splash pictures are very hard to take because you cant just take a picture and change it. You have to focus on how the color splash works with it.

Portraits

For this assignment we had to take two different pictures to compare the different lightings. One was light from a window and one was a set up studio lighting. I learned that both have different effects but I really like the window lighting much better!

FOOD :D


  
Food.
The food photography assignment I did was of all different foods in my house the hardest part was getting the lighting right! After awhile I got use to the camera and acme out with a few good photos.  I learned that food photography has many different angles you can take. Its easier to work with food because it doesn't move but its hard to do anything creative with it.
