Period 3 - Semester Final

1. Picture number seven stands out because of the color that contrast with the darkness that surrounds the balls of light. I tend to like more colors. Another reason is that its a photo about a light show. and the other being is that this photo is taken at night.

2. The best photo would be photo nine. The uses of time of day and the light is amazing. The two colors of dark blue and black really complements each other. The best part is that how simple the picture is.

3. This post. This work was the hardest to complete due to my schedule after school. The best things about these photos are that they are clear, even through they were taken with a phone. The

4. Light, time, and position.

5.                                                              Time and light.

6. Rules of thirds.

7. works gets done faster, sharing ideas,
 Challenges assumptions,
 breaks complex task into parts and steps,
 gives and receives feedback on performance.

8. Lack of motivation,
 distributing tasks, 
conflicting schedules, 
one person may end up doing all of the work,
 personality clashes.

9. This one. I like how dark yet detailed the picture is.

10. Louis Daguerre. He helped create the daguerreotype, a process that develops photos faster at the time.

11. This one. The photo is called Migrant Mother. This photo was taken Nipomo, California during the great depression in 1936.

12. 1883 was when Life was published.

13. January 8, 1935 is Elvis's birthday.

Louis Daguerre 1787-1851 
The first Daguerreotype was taken by Louis Daguerre using the world's first camera. He was born in France and he spent the majority of his his life there. He was the person who presented the camera to the public. The reason why I chose this person is because he was the one of the first person to present a way to create a picture without using paint or other drawing tools and with great accuracy compared to the painted pictures of people. Without this person photography would not be a thing. He inspires me because not of the photos he takes, but because he invented a way to create pictures with a working camera. 

 This photo that I edited is meant to be reminiscent of those photos, without the sitting for hours for the camera to work. There is no smiling in a Daguerreotype photo because it is hard to hold a face for hours waiting for a photo to come out. I lowered the temperature and decreased the color to have a black and white effect.

Self-Portrait



This may not be the best photo in the world. I have used my computer's camera for this and the part I like the most is that the computer screen reflects off the glasses.
