I think my classes are alright but in the beginning i didn't like my my third period. but i got out of it and became an aid for you and i like it way better.Other than that i like my classes except my 6th with is algebra || and i don't like how the teacher is.
My favorite class so far is my 3rd 4th and 5th.I like my 5th because when get to chill in there and do work the teacher is great .my third is the chillest class i have because i love helping and using the camera. and helping the other students in photo 1. I like my fourth because its this class and i love taking pictures.
​
It was easy to build the website because i remember from last school year. I even know more things to do on the website. I help other student make their websites so its pretty easy for me to make mine.
The coolest photo I've talken no longer exists because it got deleted in my old phone. The photo i took was of lightning that lit up the whole sky in the night.It even showed the lightning bolts in the sky.
​
Im interested in landscape and headshot photography and macro photography. i love taking pictures of outside and of the sunset or the mountains. i like taking headshots because i take bomb picture of people use them as their profile pictures on their social media. i like shooting macro cause i can shoot things close up and
​
The things that I'm going to be doing on labor day weekend is working because my manager wants me to work but idont want to work because i that would be my day off from school and i would probably be working 9-10 hours that day if its busy.
Before Blur motion
Blur motion is when a photo is taken and parts come out blurred and some what focused. It shows that there was motion in the picture.
I believe that you need a camera and the shutter speed lower to take a longer timing picture. To show that the subject in the picture is moving.
I would like to do cars as the blur motion but I won't be able to take a camera home to take theme. It would be a cool subject to take the blur motion photos.
​
You mess with the shutter speed and have it take a longer time to take the picture. Using the command dial to change the shutter speed.
The picture is taken of people on the side walk and i was taken from a short distance.

After blur motion
Blur motion is the apparent streaking of rapidly moving objects in a still image or a sequence of images such as a movie or animation. It results when the image being recorded changes during the recording of a single exposure
​
I created my blur motion by having the subject move while i take the picture creating the blur of the subject self.and lowering the shutter speed so it takes long for the picture to be taken
​
In photo shop i did basic edit just messing with the exposure and the brightness and the color filters for my images to do the final edit of the pictures. i also messed with the the image gamma.
the thing that was difficult was taking the picture without having too much exposure in it and getting the back ground to focus while the subject is blurred.
​
The thing that was easy was making the picture blurred . it was the aesiest because all i had to do was make the person
Forced perspective
This image is of a person holding a sprite bottle up its tilted to make it seem like the man is pushing it.the way the image shows forced perspective is by putting the bottle closer to the camera and the person further.the had the bottle close up and tilted it to the left.i would have put the person forth and then taken the picture to make the man really tiny.it did not effect the image.
The image is of a guy who is sitting on a couch wearing a large pair of shoes that are hideous. this image uses forced perspective by showing shoes up close to the camera and the man further back than the camera. i would done the same thing by putting the shoe up close to the camera. the line of sit is what effected it the most because its at a lower angle than the shoes it self.
the image is of a lego man witch is looking really large in the image .the way forced perspective is used is by putting the top half of the lego man and setting it on top of the structure.they took half of the lego man and held the position so that it looked as a whole lego man.i would have put the lego man with a face instead of all black. the line of sight made the picture look better by standing in the middle of the road.
The image is of a guy holding a pair of glasses on the beach while the sun shines. this image uses forced perspective by having the glasses up to the camera and the guy like about 10 to 15 feet away from the camera.the held up the glasses them selfs and had a guy walk back a distance while the take the picture them selfs.i would have done the same by holding the glasses and having the subject step back a little back.the line of site is what effect the visual of of the subject having the camera point up.
this image is of the guy holding a banana while a guy is siting in the grass to seem if he is sitting on the banana .i think they created this by the camera man holding the banana and the other guys its in the distance in the grass.i would have put the guy eating the banana as he looks like a midget.
This pimage is of a person with their mouth open and a guy in the distance jumping his bike. the image uses forced perspective by having the man close up while the guy is in the back. i think the used the man up close and having the guy jump with his bike to seem if he is jumping in his mouth. i would have put the guy on the bike a little closer to the camera but i would do the exact same.the distance is what effects the image because the man on the bike if further than the mn standing.

Still life journal
v
I'm thinking about creating a mix between both styles still life image.
2.)I'm going to bring some books or some accessories to make that happen .
3.)I think lighting is going to be more of a dark tone rather than light .
4.)I think my still life images will make appearances in both traditional and contemporary because I like how both of them look.
5.)No my still life images will not be based on themes from a book ,I think I'm just going to set them up how I think they look good.
Independent project journal
The type of the photography that i chose was street night photography basically pictures in the night of the streets of a city. The way i am going to shoot for my project is going out like at 6 or 7 maybe even 8 so its darks at that time. I will need a tripod so that my pictures could come out nice and not blurry by my hand movement showing the detail of the night. downtown with the street lights and the vehicles that are passing by in downtown Albuquerque.I am going to shoot these images in Downtown Albuquerque and Nob hill. because they have a lot of lights on the buildings and the side walks. I wanted to try doing this type of photography because it seemed fun to go taking picture in the night in the downtown area.
