This is my photo that I took at Good Harbor Beach. I added a quote on it that really explains what your really doing when your taking a photo. 

Extra Credit Action Photo's

Illusion

This is a very cool photo that I took when taking action photo's. This is Grace we had her walk off a table to try to get an action photo, but by accident we all use flash at the same time. Little did I know that it was a good thing that we did that. If you look at the picture closely you will notice that Grace's shadow looks like a 20 year old women, but Grace is only 14. This illusion  was very cool so I thought I would share this photo with you guys.

Action Photo's

These are some photos we took in photo's we took during Photography class out side in the parking lot. They are called action photo's. It's when someone or something moves and you capture a photo, but your shutter speed is up so high that you don't catch any blur in the photo is like a motion frozen in time. These are the ones I took.

The first one I took is of the photography class. The person in the middle who seems to be crating a hulk smash is Ally. She wanted to try to recreate a Hulk Smash. So we found a crack in the ground to make it look like she had created that crack with her fist. Then we had the class jump in the air to make it look like Ally had punched the ground so hard that is caused everyone to fly in the air.

 

The second photo I took is of Lauren ( On the left) and Grace (On the right). This photo is like a karate fight. Lauren took Tiquando before so she knew all the moves. Grace is very flexible, So we took their two skills and used them in this photo.

 

This is the third picture I took. This is of Lauren. We went around the school taking photos and this was one of them. This is kind of like the old cartoons when the characters run off the cliffs and remain in mid air. We had Lauren walk off a table and act like she was not going to fall, like the table kept going. It looks like she has no idea that there is no table left to walk on.

Hey! I have a lot of nice photo's to post but they are all on the school computer :( So on Monday I will post some of the close up's I took. :)

The Paul Strand Project

This was the Paul Strand Project. Paul Strand was a Photographer born October 16, 1890 and died March 31, 1976. he like to take photos with lighting and people. In class we had to try to re-create his photos. The first picture I have is of a  bicycle's back tire and some of the gears in it. He like to take close up photos of things also. He had taken a picture of a bicycle wheel and I knew i could re-create that so I took like 5 different photos of the bike's back wheel and this seemed like the best one. The second picture here is of my fence. Like I said before he loved to take photos that had to do with lighting. I waited until the sun started to set and I went out side to see if i could find good lighting photo's and this was the best one i took. The last picture I took is of my friend Thomas. Paul Strand liked to take photo of just single people and their environment around them or something about them. So I took Thomas and he was playing with his phone. Which shows what our generation is about.
