Framing.

MANMADE.

i saw Alejandra behind the gate and i got the idea to use this as a framing picture. I decided to just get her face because i wanted that to be the main focus of the picture. It was a pretty quick procedure since it wasn't too complicated, and the fact that she's not afraid of people being able to take pictures of her, seems like she actually likes it haha.

                                                                                                                                                                 

NATURAL.

Eber and i were standing next to each other and i saw our feet together, i thought it would be cool to just frame that with my fingers and have him take the picture. He had to take the picture because i was already using my hands as the frame for the picture.

ARCHITECTURAL. 

These small windows are connected to the 200 building so that made me think it was architectural. At i first i had someone holding the object but it didnt look so good because of the hand. Mr. Pederson came outside with some tape and we just taped it to the window, it looked much better then. Thanks for the good idea, i really appreciate it!


1) My strongest photo would be the man made one of alejandra. It's one of my favorites because theres nothing in the background that distracts it from being the main subject. It also looks really nice since it's just half of her face.
2) For some reason it was really hard for to find natural framings, because the only things i could think of were using the fingers, hands, legs. I couldnt really find framings in trees or plants, stuff like that. I just had people give ideas since i saw that they were going through this project really fast and confident.

Panning.

 For this photo, i had to set the shutter speed lower so i would catch the blur of the hands/ legs moving but have the face of the person nice and clear. There would be alot of times when i tried getting the face clear but the rest blurry, everything would just come out really blurry so i probably took like 20-40 pictures on just having this person walking. I just kept trying until i got what i needed for this assignment, and after awhile i got it.

The shutter speed for this one was about the same because the only difference was that the person was running/ jogging instead of walking. I had the same problem with taking this picture as the other one that i had to take of him walking. Basically i had to take plenty to finally get what i wanted or more than that.

I had two people in my picture so i could have one nice and crisp and the other person really blurry, my goal was accomplished. Sometimes i would take the picture and it would be both of them really blurry and so i had to retake it many times actually. After taking a bunch of pictures, this was the best one i had so i had no choice but to use this one.

As cars would pass by we took many pictures. Since the cars move faster than we do, my shutter speed had to get higher but not too high or else there wouldn't be any blur in the picture. Something i struggled with was getting the shot right in front of me or right in the middle, so i had lots of pictures in a not so good looking angle. Then I figured that I had to move at the speed of the car, and it worked!
