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.
