Third Assignment: Motion
Reflection:
For Motion, I chose to take two pictures freezing motion, one picture capturing motion, and two pictures panning motion. For the two pictures freeing motion, I took the picture of Erin bouncing the ball, and Erin and Mike throwing the ball. For capturing motion, I used a long exposure time to capture my dog playing with his toy, causing intentional blur in his head. Finally, for panning motion, I took separate pictures of Erin and Mike jumping off the the bench in the court yard, following them with the camera, keeping them in focus and the background blurry. Out of all the images, I like the picture of Erin the best because of how it leads the viewers eye through the picture and the angle at which I took it.

Fourth Assignment: Drawing with Light
Reflection:
For drawing with light, I decided to shoot these three images with a long exposure to capture the shape. For the first one, my classmates waved red, green and blue lights in from on the camera, and a green lights flashing in the light. This image leads the viewer's eye the most because of the random horizontal lines. The next one I shot was the Mickey mouse head, and I chose to have it in white to create high contrast against the back. For the last image
Fifth Assignment: Aperture
Focus on Background
Focus on Midgound
Focus on Foreground
Reflection:
For this shoot, I focused on aperture, where the focus was either the foreground, mid-ground and background. The first two images represent the background, and I shot the books, needles and roses, focusing on the roses behind the books. In the next image I arranged 3 jacks on the left side of the keys and I focused on the pink in the back. The next set were focused on the receiver on the phone and the collection of keys in the middle of the image. For the last set, I focused on the foreground, the needles in the front of the books and roses, which were out of focus. Finally, I focused on the edge of the violin and shot it at an angle to lead the viewer's eye through the image.
My Favorite Thing from 6 Angles
For this assignment, I shot a Christmas tree from six different points of view. The first, which is my favorite, is taken from underneath the tree, a worm's eye view (in this case a gift's point of view) looking up at the branches and the snowman ornament. The second one was shot looking directly on inside the tree, focusing on the dark green branches and the bright red and white ornament. The next image was also focusing on the inside of the tree, and the two images. The next image focused on the lights and bell, shot very close to the tree. The next two images were shot of my Grandma´s Christmas tree. The first one is of her favorite ornament, shot up close. The last was is my Grandpa´s favorite ornament, the penguin in focus in the back. My favorite is the view of the Christmas tree from underneath the tree because it was such an interesting angle to shoot from.
Hidden Faces
The First photo is an abstract face on the floor shot from above made out of the blue tiles and orange ttiles.Thr second image is at eye level of an electrical outlet in my house. I liked the second image the best becausee the viewer can really imagine the expression if it were imposed on a human.
