Criique#10 National Geographic (June 1985)
Photographer Steve McCurry immortalized the haunted eyes of a 12-year-old refugee in a camp on the Afghanistan-Pakistan border on this magazine cover. Soviet helicopters destroyed her village and family, forcing her to make a two-week trek out of the perilous mountains of Afghanistan. The photo became a National Geographic icon after it was published on the cover in June 1985. Since then, this raw, untouched image has been used on rugs and tattoos, making it one of the most widely reproduced photos in the world.
Critique
This photo relay expresses the suffrage of the young refugee by showing a close up of her eyes which show the coldness of her situation. This photo backs up what the magaizine's main point witch is to show the suffarge that war torn countrys experince witch scars lifes and seperates famillys,and destroyes homes. The girls eyes show the realities of war, she may look like just a 12-year old however she has experinced what no girl her age can even imagin them selves in, a life or death experince and loseing you familly and home along with it.

Lytro Warm-Up
1. What did you see happen when you clicked on the photo?
what I saw happen when I clicked the photo is that the background or part of the photo that was not clear/blurry was made clear and zoomed in.
2. How does this new camera work?
The new Lytro camera works differently from regular cameras on the market today due to the fact that it has a light field witch is a device that allows the camera to capture certain light that regular cameras can not.
3. What do you think a photographer would have to know about to take this kind of photo (remember its a point-and-shoot, so its full manual mode, what do you need to know about)
I would think that a photographer using this camera would have to consider that he/she will experience more light coming in to the lens of the camera so they would have to be very consensuses of there ISO, shutter speeds and fstops to get clear pictures.
4. Is it worth the money? In my opinion I feel this camera is worth the money because it helps the photographer experiment more and have a wide range of ideas to get pictures with more depth.

Self Portriat and Portriats part II and rules of Photoagraphy part II
Three tips that I Think were Helpfull For a great Self Portriat or Portriat.
Get Closer
The most common mistake made by photographers is that they are not physically close enough to their subjects. In some cases this means that the center of interest—the subject—is just a speck, too small to have any impact. Even when it is big enough to be decipherable, it usually carries little meaning. Viewers can sense when a subject is small because it was supposed to be and when it's small because the photographer was too shy to get close.
Don't be shy. If you approach people in the right way, they'll usually be happy to have their picture made. It's up to you to break the ice and get them to cooperate. Joke around with them. Tell them why you want to make the picture. Practice with people you know so that you are comfortable; people can sense when you aren't.
5 - Use a tripod. Seriously. While it’s possible to get good photos while you’re hanging on to your camera at arms-length, it’s a lot easier if you’ve got the freedom to move around a bit.
Have fun with it. Be sexy. Be yourself. Be awesome. Be different. Be creative. Whatever you do, have fun with it. That’s part of the point, after all.
I realy thought these photos because the main subject was outlined by the other things around them. For example Paul Reed Smith showing his guitar was oultlined as the main subject by the other guitars hanging in a row and it gave the rule of lines and Framing. Also the picture of the woman doing yoga is reflected by the mountains.
What I liked from these photos is that the subjects in the photos look comfortable and happy to be taken pictures of.
What I plan on photographing, is a musician that looks comfortable like the ones above I may do a Self portrait or if someone else feels comfortable of there photo being taken. I feel outside will be a great place, it is a comfortable, open environment, with plenty of light. I could go out in to the court yard were the threes are by the main office so that the light is not to strong but not to weak. I plan to use a tripod either if I do a self Portrait or Portrait of someone else to have a balanced Photo and avoid it being blurry. I will try to make sure I have enough light because were I plan to shoot could lack light. I will try to use the environment around me to help me use the rules of photography because that is hard to find outside and could be easier inside however I still wish to shoot outside.

3. Are there circumstances in which it would be more ethically wrong to do this type of manipulation? Yes it could be when someone is trying to incriminate someone such as a political figure,etc.
4. What types of changes are OK, and what aren't?The types of changes such as removing fly away hairs from someones photo to improve the quality to there photo is acceptable, however when they start to do physical changes. the photo does not even look like that person anymore.
5. Explain what you think the differences are between fashion photography and photojournalism.Fashion mainly concentrates on they "beauty" of someone and does not have much of a wide range as photojournalism does.
6. What relationship does each type of photography have to reality, and how does this affect the ethical practice of each? Each type of photography is documenting something which is very hard to be able to tell witch is telling the truth. Fashion trys to promote something, sell shoes, clothes. product, etc. compared to photojournalism which is trying to get news out to the public they are benefiting the public not trying to make you buy something.

National Geographic warm up
I would like to take a photo like this, because it has meaning and I feel that photos with a background or history have more depth.
Photo Manipulation and Ethics
This article shows the main reason why photo manipulation can be used for bad. On April first in was portrait day for the cabinet of Israel, someone messed with the photo and took out the female members and replaced them with males to fake an all male cabinet. Journalist in Lebanon faked a photo by making a failed missile launch look like a success. This stresses the point that photo alluring can be used for improper uses and can be used to cover up things.
This article explains the negativity of using photo shop when it is carelessly used or for negative uses. The article also states that in order to be a responsible photographer or professional there is a right time and place to use photo alteration. The article states that miss use of photoalturation can cost a professional there job.
I believe that photo shop is a great tool, however if it is miss used it can be very controversial. This careless editing happens with words also however many people fallow visual proof quicker that written and if they were to see a controversial photo such as the ones shown in the article they may think that is the real photo and that would cause allot of miscommunication.

2. Post one photo from that park. You may use the photos from the link, or you can google an entirely new photo. I would prefer to see a photo of the park in disrepair and not a photo of it when it was still operating.
3. Think of at least FIVE other unusual places you think would be of interest to photographers. List them. An other place that would be good to photograph is abandoned citys that could have been left due to disasters or war. two others could be deserts and dried lakes were photographers can find history of past life. An other can be caves. And one could be the Aztec temples. All these that I have listed could be interesting because it can document past cultures and life that we are not used to seeing everyday.
4. Use google or another search engine to research ONE of your five places and see if anyone has already started documenting that place. If you find that someone has already started - post at least one photo of their work.
5. Write a paragraph about why you think that it would be fun to document that location. Tell me what interests you about that place and what kind of photos you could expect to take there. It would be fun to document this location at Okpo Land, South Korea, because the photos I have seen seem to be speaking some how giving a history of its existence and its sad downfall that was followed by a series of tragedies. The type of photos I would expect to take there would be very vast and interesting and unique. The photos can tell a story.
6. Tell me what it would take for you to go and take photos at your location. What would you need as far as equipment goes, travel plans, expenses you might encounter and what laws you would have to take into consideration to take photos at your spot. The types of expenses that someone traveling there would have to get airfare to Korea and take a faerie to the island. The equipment a person will need is camera tripod and climbing ropes and ladders. The same laws that apply in the U.S are not the same in Korea, they are absolutely stricter, especially if you are a foreigner. The laws are of course trespassing laws, many feel that failed amusement owners or countries are strict on these laws because they feel that outsiders are making a joke of there failed attempts.

Funny captions
Now Joe the donkey replaced Rudolf in Santa's slay and he is doing pretty good, and Benjamen well, lets just say he has to pull his own cart full of stones these days.
It was not true.
It is said that the Smith family has a very vicious, killer dog that everyone has heard about, but not seen. Yea I'm pretty sure this big guy will make a bugler pee his pants.... of laughter!
Cool video
I think the video was a great way to show many of how the students express there spirit for our school. They featured allot from the football team to band however not a large amount of the fans that support them that would be nice to see more of some of the few pictures they had. The maker of the video could improve on the speed or contrast between pictures and videos as from the band, to cheerleaders/step team, football. what I mean is not to confuse to viewer to keep the videos more separate and detailed.

Warm up on HDR photography
.Look up HDR photography on google (wikipedia has a great post on this) -
1. What do you have to do on the camera to make this type of photo? In order to take these type of photos you have to set the camera on the lowest ISO and have it possible on a tripod, and have high F-stops and shutter speeds. You will also take multiple photos.
2. Look up a Canon T3 on google and tell me if it has the ability to shoot bracketed photos? Yes the Canon T3 does have the ability to shoot bracketed photos, the way it can is that the T3 has a feature called Auto Exposure Bracketing, which allows you to take three shoots that can later either be merged together or picked out separately.
3. Is there a place on campus we could take a series of photos like this? Yes a there is allot of places on campus we could take HDR photos because there is a good amount of landscape around the school.
4. Do a google image search for HDR photos and find your favorite, post it on your blog, tell me why you picked that photo and then tell me what techniques (rules of photography) the photographer used.
I picked this photo because it shows a great example of HDR photography by meshing multiple photos to make a background that is in depth. The photographer used the rule of thirds to show were the cars on the bridge were headed.

1.) What first caught your eye while looking at your photographers photos? Is there something in particular about their photos that made you want to choose them? What caught my eye while looking at the photos that Lewis Hine photographed is that he documented some of the most important historical events that at the time seemed like noting to the people who rejected his photos, however it documented history for us.
2.) Look at those 2 photos you posted last time. Use your five senses to tell me more about those photos. Answer them on your blog.
I see: people working hard building buildings 1,000 feet in the air and children being forced to work, children crying of how exhausted and hungry they are. Men dangerously close to falling 1,000 feel down to there death.
I smell: steel, coal from factory machines.
I hear: busy New York streets from a distance, loud factory machines, other men yelling, and heavy machines and tools working.
I taste: Salty air from the ocean, smoke from the machines.
I feel: High above the world, very cold. I feel very exhausted and imprisoned like if I was robbed of my life.
You can do this in 2 ways. You can either put yourself in the photo and pretend your standing next to the subjects in the photo. I know smell and taste are hard but you can do it.
Or, you can pretend you were the photographer and use those same senses.
On the one titled - I feel - you may either touch things in your photo (imagination please!!) or you can tell me what you (yes, you in the real world) feel or felt the first time you saw the photo, or how it makes you feel when you look at it now.
BE REFLECTIVE HERE - try to be descriptive, try to write more than you think you can. One sentence per prompt is NOT ENOUGH, write at LEAST 3 sentences per!!! Write more, if you think its enough, its NOT.
3.) Finally, what would you like to create to show the world your great photographer. Ideas include, posters, power points, a blog, etc. You tell me what you would like to create so we can come up with a plan to share your thoughts and ideas about your photographer with your classmates and with the rest of the school. I would create a blog so that people can also share there response to Lewis Hines photos.

Fixed Photo Shoot Post shoot reflection
1. What did you learn about the camera when you took these photos? What I learned about the camera when I took these photos is that the camera has so many different settings, and that you can have allot of control over your photos if you know how to use these settings.
2. What do you notice about all the photos and the way they look? Most of the photos I took were either way to bright or way to dark.
3. Can you tell the difference between each ISO? Explain how. You can tell the difference between each ISO because the higher the ISO, with a high F-stop the pictures are darker.
4. What does this tell you about ISOs and what it does when you change it when you take pictures. what this says is the higher the ISO the darker or unclear the photo will be.
5. What about focus? Can you see a difference in the photos? Tell me what differences and similarities you see.The photos with lower ISO had more focused photos, the difference is that the photos with higher ISOs were clear and more focused on higher F-stops that photos with higher ISOs however the photos with higher ISOs were brighter on lower F-stops than the photos with higher ISOs. the similarities the photos had is that they would all darken in a higher F-stop.
6. Post the best photo you took on your blog. Make sure to label the following things: ISO, Shutter Speed, F-stop, Distance, Focal Length, Lighting.
ISO:3200, Shutter speed:1/125, F-stop:16, Distance:5feet, Focal length:50, Lighting:Mostly cloudy.
7. What do you need to concentrate on when you go out to shoot next time when you have to shoot in Manual settingg? The next time I go out to shoot in manual setting I will make sure to use a lower ISO if the lighting is poor like it was that day and if the lighting is too bright vise versa. Also I will concentrate on my shutter speed to let more light in.
2. What do you notice about all the photos and the way they look? Most of the photos I took were either way to bright or way to dark.
3. Can you tell the difference between each ISO? Explain how. You can tell the difference between each ISO because the higher the ISO, with a high F-stop the pictures are darker.
4. What does this tell you about ISOs and what it does when you change it when you take pictures. what this says is the higher the ISO the darker or unclear the photo will be.
5. What about focus? Can you see a difference in the photos? Tell me what differences and similarities you see.The photos with lower ISO had more focused photos, the difference is that the photos with higher ISOs were clear and more focused on higher F-stops that photos with higher ISOs however the photos with higher ISOs were brighter on lower F-stops than the photos with higher ISOs. the similarities the photos had is that they would all darken in a higher F-stop.
6. Post the best photo you took on your blog. Make sure to label the following things: ISO, Shutter Speed, F-stop, Distance, Focal Length, Lighting.
ISO:3200, Shutter speed:1/125, F-stop:16, Distance:5feet, Focal length:50, Lighting:Mostly cloudy.7. What do you need to concentrate on when you go out to shoot next time when you have to shoot in Manual settingg? The next time I go out to shoot in manual setting I will make sure to use a lower ISO if the lighting is poor like it was that day and if the lighting is too bright vise versa. Also I will concentrate on my shutter speed to let more light in.

Aperture, Shutter speed, ISO - how do they all work?
Aperture:
1. What part of the body should we closely relate aperture? The part of the body we should closely relate aperture with is our pupil
2. Finish this sentence - the smaller the Aperture ____the larger F-stop_________, the higher the Aperture _The larger the F-stop_______________.3. In your own words tell me how aperture impacts Depth of Field? aperture impacts depth of field by making the main subject sharp and the background blurry during a large f-stop and the opposite during a small f-stop.
4. With the camera near you - tell me the F stops available on the lens currently attached
Photo taken with aperture setting F2.8
Photo taken with aperture setting F16 or higher
Shutter speed:
example of a photo taking with high Shutter speed
example of a photo taking at slow shutter speed:
1. If you were assigned to shoot at Blue and Gold night, which will be next month, what shutter speeds do you think you would have to shoot at the following events that night I would like you to answer the question for the following two situations:
At the beginning while the sun is still partially up and the courtyard has reasonable light a.) the dunking booth
b.) the food eating contest
c.) the rock climbing walld.) someone working at a booth
e.) the DJ/MC working at the middle of the circle
f.) the Diamonds performance.
Towards the end when there is no sun and has gotten dark enough that you can't see from one end of the courtyard to the other.a.) the dunking booth
b.) the food eating contest
c.) the rock climbing wall
d.) someone working at a booth
e.) the DJ/MC working at the middle of the circlef.) the Diamonds performance.
2. List the three settings your camera has regarding setting shutter speed (these are found at #5 on the Shutter Speed website. Explain how each works - DO NOT COPY AND PASTE, use your own words.
One of the three settings regarding setting shutter speed is aperture priority witch is an automatic way for your camera to set the shutter speed for you however you set the aperture. An other setting is Shutter priority were the aperture is set for you and your shutter speed is set by you. The final of the three settings you camera has regarding setting shutter speed is manual were the aperture and shutter speed are set by you and not automatic by the camera
3. With the camera near you, what are the shutter speeds available to you on that camera? You will have to turn the camera on to determine this - hopefully you can figure out what setting to put the camera on to determine the answer to this question.
ISO
Photo taken at ISO 200
photo taken at ISO 3200 or 6400
3. What suggestions did the author make about using a high ISO? The author suggested that when there is not a good source of light or a motion is being observed it is best to use high ISO.
4. At the camera near you, please tell me what ISO's are available on your camera?

ISO
Photo taken at ISO 200 photo taken at ISO 3200 or 6400 1. What are the advantages of shoot at a higher ISO at a sporting event like basketball or a night football game? The advantages of shooting at a higher ISO at a sporting event or at night is because there is not enough light and at a higher ISO you can capture a motion with low light.
2. What suggestions did the author make about using a low ISO? The author suggested that you use low ISO during good sources of light.3. What suggestions did the author make about using a high ISO? The author suggested that when there is not a good source of light or a motion is being observed it is best to use high ISO.
4. At the camera near you, please tell me what ISO's are available on your camera?
Sim cam:
F2.8- looks the best at 1/125th of a second shutter speed.
F4-looks the best at 1/60th of a second shutter speed.
F5.6-looks best at 1/60th of a second shutter speed.
F8-looks the best at 1/30th of a second shutter speed.
F11-looks the best at 1/30th of a second shutter speed.
F16-looks the best at 1/15th of a second shutter speed.
F22-looks the best at 1/8th of a second shutter speed.
F2.8 the background is not visible , it is blurry and all that is visible is the couple.
F4 The background is still not visible, it is blurry and all that is visible is the couple.
F5.6 the background is still blurry but slightly visible.
F8 the background is still blurry.
F11the background is slightly more visible.
F16 the background is visible.
F22 the background is completely visible and the couple is still clear.
The couple are beginning to become more blurry in a higher Fstop were the background is visible. the photographer can keep the shutter speed high to expose the light to the couple more. the lowest shutter speed the photographer can keep the camera in is 1/15th of a second shutter speed.
Camera Sim:
I did good on the depth field and better on the shutter speed and motion. Yes this did make me understand Aperture, Shutter speed, and ISO clearer.

Reactions to Africa:black_an_white
This power point had some of the greatest photos I have seen. The photos are very detailed and focused on the animals. The photographer also followes the rules of photography very closely giving his photos a very dedicatied look.
This is my favorite photo from Nick Brandt because it shows the lion as the main subject and is framed by the trees calling main attention to the lion..
