MIDTERM Portfolio

 ANGLES

During the process of taking this photo I got really low below the subject of my image to portray an angles effect. I chose this as one of my best angles photo because the green color on the leaves really stood out next to the concrete wall. I think if i would have cropped the washed out sky it would have made this photo a little stronger. 

 FILL THE FRAME

I took this photo the day we were given props to experiment with. I had a great idea to apply the filling the frame technique with my bee prop so I set it down on floor level and took the picture right below it so that my prop looked superior. I feel like if the sun didnt leave as much glare this picture would have been perfect.

RULE OF THIRDS

 

 During the making of this photo I asked my bro nick to jump over a trash can so that I could capture his face expression but I didnt realize it was going to be a great photo for rule of thirds technique.







PANNING

 I used a panning technique to perform a slightly blurred background and kept the subject in focus. This technique was difficult for me to perform so i chose this photo because i felt like it was the closest one to this technique. I think this photo could be better if i might have blurred the background a little more.

 SHUTTER SPEED

 During the process of making this photo i got really low and asked my friend nick to toss leaves into the air and i increased the shutter speed so it captured the leaves in crisp definition. i really like how this photo came out to be but it could be improved if his pants werent slightly washed out.

 WILD CARD

 This photo describes me and how I am able to apply the techniques i used during my first semester in this class to almost any object in the world.

 FRAMING

 I obviously didnt take this photo but i gave my friend nick instructions to take it the way i wanted it. I had a good idea of using the cart as a framing photo. This photo could have been better if i would have took it for sure.

 LINES

 I took this photo outside by the bus area. I decided to get really low and take the photo floor level so that i was able to include the subject and the parking bus lines so draw attention to the subject. i really like how this photo came out to be. 

PATTERNS

 I was given a prop to take pictures of and experiment. I feel like I did a really good job of taking a picture of this bee on a fence which led into my pattern technique i used in this photo.
