The Park

1 - I would go to the Okpo Land theme park just because of how everything was left to rot. No one pick up the mess and tragic past this park had, only increasing the "spook factor" to me. Then other park I would go to is Shidaka’s Utopia with a camera in hand ready to shoot ghost. Yet, id the have spiders, no way in heck am I going to a place. No spiders, ever.

2 - 


3 - The five spooky places I would say to go and take pictures of are:

  • Very old graveyards
  • East Austin
  • Old Chuck-E-Cheeses
  • Junk yards
  • Factories 

4 - 
Junk yard

5 - My Grandpa loves collecting antiques and anything with a little rust on them. Every time I would go there, he would have a cool new antique waiting on the counter. I love seeing his awesome collections of toy cars, G.I. Joe toys, and even candy dispenser that had a coin stuck in it. This with a spooky vibe make me want to go see what lies in the junk yard. 

6 - Find the location, pack waters, hacksaw or bolt cutters, food, and a flashlight, go to location some how. Most likely via car. Break in on to most likely private property, take pictures, watch for shacks or homes with light coming from it, keep ears out, then get the heck out of there!

The Old Comedy Gold



Local Granny raises funds to buy a pair a scissors on Kick-starter to save her beloved walker "Ferris" 
from the "terror" of light pole, and reaches $10 dollar goal yesterday. The Granny, who wants her name anonymous to the public, says that "Ferris has been more than a walker, he is my friend, and I love him", set up the Kick--starter with the name "Save Ferris" to try to rescue her "favorite grandson" in a time of need.


 Grandmother of 14 saves town from the "Rocky the Rapid Raccoon (R.R.R.)" by "360 no-scoping" the raccoon on her grandsons field trip to the Center City Zoo with a rifle. Known as "Xxx_Sweg_Granny420_xxX" by the Call of Duty community, she said in an interview that "the dank roadkill was ready to shank my fourth favorite grandson, so I just pull M.L.G. gun and kill the noob",but the Grandmother ended up getting arrested  for having weed on her.

In loving memory of Rocky Raccoon. Father, brother, mascot of Center City Zoo. Rest in poop.


Sisters Olga and Hippatippa go missing while walking their two nurse sharks last Friday at the local bay.

Academic Post-Shoot Reflection





1 - Used simplicity and rule of thirds.

2 - The girl's head, not her drawing because it is being hidden.

3 - To me yes.


1 - Balance

2 - The girl to the left doing homework.

3 - Some might go for the boy on to the left, not to the girl.

4 - Focus on the girl more than the boy.


1 - Lines, rule of thirds, and simplicity.

2 - The girl drawing the landscape.

3 - To me, yes.


1 - Rule of thirds and balance.

2 - The Boy in red smiling.

2 - The boy reading to the left. 

3 - Very.

Post Shoot Reflection 

1 - Getting into classrooms. Many rooms were giving lessons and were not doing anything "stop and work" related. When I did go into a classroom, I used all my time I had in there.

2 - Focus for me. I just keeper on thinking "Am I going to get in focus" or "Did the last one I take in Focus enough".One example was when I was doing an over head and the first to photos were blurry, I did my hardest to take good photos in focus, and I did get her focus, but after the final picture, I scraped the picture for another one.

3 - To add more lines and less rule of thirds and go for something different.

4 - The pictures of people studying and drawing outside.

5 - Hopefully simplicity and more lines. I like lines.

6 - Balance.

7 - Balance.

Academic Shoot with Nick's Blog


Pros - Nick's photos were very simple in nature, yet gave a vibe of more, something hidden in the photos. A photo with a story is super good to have for me. Also how you incorporated the good ol' rule o' thirds in each of the pictures is fantastic to have.

Cons - How some of the pictures are a little to dark is hard to see far away, even with my screen on full brightness. Just a tip. No hard feelings.

The Three Pillars of Photography

Aperture - 


Photo of flowers on f/16. 


Photo of small wagon at f/2.6.

1 - The eye and the cornea.

2 - The smaller the aperture, less background you see ,and the larger the aperture, the more background you see.

3 - The more objects in the background can make the average background turn in to one plane. Like if the object that you looking is a wheel, but the truck is making up the photo.

Shutter Speed - 

Super high shutter speed

Low shutter speed



In the light at hot-dogs and bulldogs-

1 - 1/250

2 - 1/50

3 - 1/2000

4 - 1/75

5 - 1/50

6 - 1/1500

In the dark at hot-dogs and bulldogs-

1 - 1/10

2 - 1/1

3 - 1/100

4 - 1/250

5 - 1/1

6 - 1/50

------------
Aperture priority - you set aperture, the camera does the rest.

Shutter priority - you set shutter, the camera does the rest.

Manual - you set both aperture and shutter speed.

_________________________________________________________________________________

ISO - 

High I.S.O.

Low I.S.O.

1 - To give the player the main focus of the picture, not the crowd nor lights.

2 - To use a lower I.S.O. in places with lots of light already, so put it around 100 to 200 I.S.O.

3 - To use a higher I.S.O. when in low light environments and to also use it in times of freeze frame moments.

------------

1 - Aperture: 2.8 to 20

2 - Shutter speed: 1 second to 1/4,000 second

3 - I.S.O.: 100 to 256,000
