1. The amusement park I would consider on going to visit would be the one called " Prypiat" its an abandoned amusement park that involves bumper cars, that have been left to decay and be alone, I would consider on going to this amusement park because it looks like a very interesting place to walk around and capture interesting photos of roller coasters and rides that have been left to decay. It has been said that this amusement park is a place unsafe for humans, and its been a place that has been collapsed by weather and buildings. So I feel that some great photos would come out of this amusement park.

3. I think 5 interesting unusual places photographers would like to consider taking pictures at is:
    Africa

Photos for Great Black and White Photographers Part 3

Great Black And White Photographers part 3

1. What caught my eye looking at my photographer "Stephen Shore" Is that I think that he picked inspiring photos and interesting photos you normally wouldn't see. In particular there was something that made me select those photos because it made me see photos I normally wouldn't see so I selected those because they were something different.

2. I see, Unordinary photos such as body's just grabbing and touching eachother and posing and some arms coming out of the ground like this kid is sad or something because the wall shows a sad face painted on.

    I smell, a store of selected clothes and people getting ready in the back for a photo shoot. I would      be able to smell perfume, ciggarete sense there is a model smoking a ciggarete as he poses and the sweat of body lingering in the room from touching each other and being in a room where it looks hot.

I hear, cameras flashing because theres a photo shoot going on in the background and people talking because in the photo there are models talking while posing.

I taste, the sweet linger of perfume and the taste of ciggaretes because shown in the second photo there is a model posing while smoking a ciggarete.

I feel, the warmth of body's lingering in the room while everyone is posing because  theres so much body's surrounding in the room, I feel the dirtied floor because the photograph where the arms are coming out of the floor, the floor is dirty, I feel the excitement going on in the room about taking snapshots.

3. I would like to create posters, so classmates and everyone in the school can see my photography  because while students go to the restroom and wonder in the hallways or passing periods or going to class my photos may catch their attention and they are able to glimpse at what pictures I was able to take and they may like them.

Academic Shoot Reflection

1. The challenges I encountered was learning and having to remember what the rules mean and if I am even implying them right and have the right idea to what they mean.

2. The technical aspects I think that I found myself thinking about the most is I kept wanting to just take pictures of everything but I remembered that I had to stick to the rules of photography, I brought out my sticky note with the rules labeled and I would check off every time I took that snapshot.

3. If I could do the assignment again now knowing the basic rules of photography I could do differently is studied the rules more better so that I can stay focus on what they mean and go to more academic classes.

4. The things I would the same is keep in mind the rules and stay in science and cooking classes because they had a lot of academic activities going on.

5. The rule that I think would be the easiest to achieve would have to be Lines because I remember that rule very well because its simply and I get the procedure to what that rule means.

6. The rule that I think that is the hardest to capture is Avoiding Mergers because Its hard to remember what it means and it is hard to get a picture of a merger or of an avoiding merger.

7. The rule I am still not clear on is Avoiding Mergers, I could do to fix this is study that rule and maybe do some research so I could better understand what It means.

Framing:
How well I think that I followed the rule was pretty good I boxed my main subject trying to get the viewers attention to what I was trying to take a picture of.  My main subject is the person standing right in front of the camera holding a microphone and talking into it. I think that is clear to see what my main subject is in the photo, I could have done differently is picked a different background so that the full attention is on the person and have boxed my main subject better.

Simplicity:
I think that I followed this rule okay,  it is clearly shown the main subject and what he is doing.  The subject of this snapshot is the little boy sitting on the computer working on his assignment done in the book. I think it is clear to see what my main subject is because he's the only person that I'm focusing on. I could have done differently is probably zoomed closer in on him to focus more on him. 

Rule Of Thirds:
I think that I followed this rule good, it is shown that If i were to boxed everything and divided it like a tic tac toe grid it would work out. The main subject in this photograph is the girl sitting in her chair looking and writing in her packet while she's singled out doing her work. I think that is clear to see what my subject is in this photo because it is shown that it is her. I could have done differently is zoomed out more to show griding better. 

Balance:
I think that I followed this rule not so well, because It does show a little bit of balance but not so much of it.  The subject in this photograph is the three main people cooperating together to make strawberry smoothies while talking and deciding how to prepare the food. I think that its not very clear to tell what my main subject is, I could have done differently is get more people cooperating and choose a different background, and more zoomed out. 

Lines:
I think that I followed this rule good, It is shown  that Im trying to demonstrate lines in this snapshot in the background. The main subject in this photo is the person sitting in the chair working in his laptop. I think that is clear to people what Im trying to demonstrate, I could have done differently is maybe move the chair and zoomed in more to focus more in the lines and the main subject. 

Avoiding Mergers:
 I think that I followed this rule not very well, Its not very shown well of a merger. The main subject in this photo is the strawberry smoothies. I think that is clear to people what my main subject is. I could have done differently is possible shown the person more but zoomed out as well. 

1. My reactions to the power point is that I think that these photos are really really cool and its very amazing to see how they get these animals to do what there doing, How they get them to pose like this and how the photographer captures such great views. So detailed and defined, These photos amazed me.

This photograph is my favorite because I feel its very inspiring if you wanted to become a great photographer just by looking at his work makes you really think. This photo is touching and very sweet yet cool at the same time. By looking at this snapshot you could tell it wasn't very easy taking this photo  waiting on the perfect timing for the animals to touch heads. This is a great photo.

4. The Rules Of Photography that are evident in this photo are consisting of Balance, Therefore the photo is well balanced. Simplicity because the main focus of the subject are the lions. And Framing because the outside of the picture  or background focuses on the main subject.

5. The kind of camera the photographer used was Pentax 67, with a short lens. 


6.  His reason for taking these photos is because one of his goals is being a record a visually poetic last testament to the wild animals and places there before they are gone at the hands of man. 

7. His hope for taking these kind of photos are to reach a specific goal he wanted to achieve, and he feels that the habitat is being destroyed so he decided to take photos of these animals before there instinct. 

8. "You still have people coming in and illegally killing the animals for food, taking down the wood for charcoal for firewood. And that is not just in Africa but everywhere. "

Filming The Frame: In this snapshot this is filled with frame because there smoke between all of the students and it looks like there experimenting with a chemical lab involving smoke this looks very interesting to know what the students are doing wether there doing a lab or not. 

Action And Emotion: This photo explains action and emotion by the action showing that there constructing a chemical lab together and making a huge mess but while thats happening theres also emotion by the two students smiling and laughing and look like there having fun by the look on their faces. 

The Story: This photograph visually tells a story by the two students bonding together and working together as it shows them trying to construct a house or a building while the two students are in the intense heat trying to construct a house for someone.







My favorite photo from Academics and Community Service would have to be the photo of a little boy sitting in the library ground reading and studying his sat books and act books and preparing for colleges and programs while several books are opened on the ground surrounding him while he's studying.


1. I selected this photo because I think that this photo was taken from a high up angle which was really cool that it was defined and able to show the title of the books and which books he was reading.


2. The Rules of Photography that are evident in this photo would have to involve Lines, Simplicity, and Framing.


1. Where I think I could take photos like the one I described above would most likely be the library because the little boy was reading and studying books in the library and there was several books surrounding him.


2. A classroom I would like to visit in would have to be the dance room, because I love dancing and I feel that there will be great photos for me take in the dance room of children dancing and jumping high in the air.


3.What I would do as the photographer to get amazing photos, I would have to follow The Rules of Photography to achieve great photos and take photos that are interesting and might have a story too but that are also photos that I think would be great snapshots to take of.

Avoiding Mergers: I selected this photo because I feel that it meets the standards of Avoiding Mergers, Which is to focus our eye on the subject whats suppose to be seen in the picture and not the background so you would select a picture where the subject is the main focus and the background won't grab your attention. Basically the technique is to avoid border merges and to look for plain backgrounds. 

Framing: I selected this photo because I think that it meets the standards of Framing, Because Framing means frame the main subject your trying to take a photograph on but interest the subject with objects that are shown in the background such as the tractors and dirtied ground and mess collage in the background. Basically the effect of the technique is to add foreground to make the photograph more interesting. 

Balance: I selected this photo because I think that this photograph meets the standards of what Balance means  therefore Balance in this photo means is to notice geometric shapes and lines for a better balance photograph, Such as the shapes of the cloud and where the placement of the objects are to balance the photo like the tree is in the bottom left corner. 

Lines: I selected this photo because I feel that it meets the correct standard of what Lines mean such as the lines in the background grab your attention and add more to the photograph. Basically lines means to add lines to your center of interest such as the many lines shown in the background. 

The Rule Of Thirds: In this photograph The Rule Of Thirds refer to dividing your picture into thirds and boxing it horizontally and vertically. I boxed this photograph and and everything fits just right. It implies to what the rules mean. 

Simplicity: In this photograph I selected an uncomplicated background to steal the viewers attention to my main subject which is the tower. The background is just a plain blue background therefore the viewers are going to look at the tower.
