American Soldier Slideshow and Captions

1A. The most powerful image in the slideshow would have to be the one where Buddha, Ian and Cody are saying their goodbyes, Because Ian says and promises that he will pray for his buddies and that he will fight for them as much as he can. 

B. Set #1 Home at denver: 1- 9. 
Set #2 Basic training: 10-49. 
Set #3 In Iraq: 50- 70.
Set #4 Back in Denver: 70-83. 

The set of images that was the most powerful was Home at Denver because this is when he is saying bye to everyone that they will miss him and pray for him. This is the scene where everyone cry's for Ian. 
 
C. The images work together to tell a story by his life in Denver and then his life after Iraq they come together to say how he is strong he is being for leaving everyone in denver and going to go fight for everyone, it tells a story about his life span from then till Iraq. 
 
3A. The tense that the verbs are usually written in an the captions of Ian would be Past tense: "I've been thinking about everyone" "I get attached to some of them" "Ian catches a smoke on the way to the camp"

B. The captions enhance the photographs because just by looking at the photo you can tell what there doing but the captions enhance and image and story in your head and tells you the meaning to that photograph and how sentimental that photo is. 

4A. Image 38: 
Ian catched a smoke in his bed, due to Ian was somewhere he is not suppose to be and is really struggling hard on his breakup with Kayla. Ians father is concerned about Ian being in danger of AWOL, Ian had skipped out on carson due to his breakup as well. 

B. Image 4:
Ian had take one last trip to Elitch gardens Amusment park, he rode on the ferris wheel with his girlfriend and some other friends before leaving to Iraq. His girlfriend had kissed him on his cheek ad well. 

C. Image 7: 
Ian drove away leaving Shane and Buddha weeping and missing him realizing this is the real deal, while sitting on Shanes car. They had realized how real the situation was and couldn't handle it very well. 

5A. These other features enhances the photographs by expressing the story of Ian and showing his story by the features to show how he feels and how his friends and family feels. 

B. The videos are better than the photographs due to you can understand his story more, like Ian had said "I don't think mentally I could deal with actually being with somebody while I'm in Iraq." He couldn't commit to a relationship without not knowing what she's doing or not having his mind cleared about her. 

C. The photos are better than the videos compared to you can relate to an image by reading the caption which makes you think and understand it more because your reading it and not just hearing it, like Ian had said "Im gunna fight for you guys everyday."

Aperture, Shutter Speed, ISO

ISO 200
 ISO 3200 
F16

F 2.8
1. The part of the body that we should closely relate aperture is the human eyes.
2. The smaller the aperture the larger, the higher the aperture the smaller the area in focus. 
3. Aperture impacts Depth Of Field by, in a photograph out of the whole photograph a certain area is sharp such as a picture of a person is sharp but the background is blurry, or the person becomes sharp and by changing apertures now the background becomes sharp as well. 


High Shutter Speed

Low Shutter Speed


1 A)  Slow shutter speed causing blur.
 B) High shutter speed causing good defined photos.
C) High Shutter Speed causing good sunlight from above.
D) Low Shutter speed may be dim and hard to capture because of movement.
E) High Shutter speed able to capture good sunlight from the middle of the courtyard.
F) Low Shutter speed causing too much movement can be blurry.

 A) Low Shutter speed not being able to see whats going.
B) High shutter speed can include flash and if your good view of eating contest.
C) Low Shutter speed not being able to see above from way up high.
D) High shutter speed if you have flash and are able to view person in a good view.
E) Low Shutter speed not being able to see in the middle of courtyard causing major blurriness.
F) Low shutter speed can cause a lot of blurriness especially in the dark.


2. The Three settings a camera has is, "Aperture Priority mode" Which is you set the lens to the mode where the camera by itself automatically sets the mode to where the it goes to shutter speed.
The other setting can be "Shutter Priority mode" Which is the camera atomically by itself chooses the aperture and when you set it to shutter speed.
Another setting is "Manual Mode" Where you are able to set both aperture and shutter speed by yourself.



1. The advantages of a shoot at higher ISO at sporting events would have to be at a basketball game the ISO would come to be sharp and clear good lighting and due to the good lighting the ISO would capture the photograph together making it a better and more clear sharp image as due to the night football game using high ISO the photo would come out great without having to use flash because the ISO is higher.
2. The suggestions the author made about using low ISO is  the lower your ISO is the less sensitive it is to the light.
3. The higher the ISO is the number increases the sensitivity of your camera.
