Light Photography

The reason why I like these two photos is because despite the sun being in the same position in the sky I was able to manipulate the light in a way to make it look like the sun in the first photo in on that side of the parking garage, but in the second picture it looks like time has passed and the sun has traveled a distance along the sky.



These 2 photos show how opening the aperture and increasing the amount of light in the photo can make things change. One obvious difference is that the shadows are no longer present in the first photo which I think is really cool because I was under trees when I took this and was surrounded by shade, and now it looks like the fact that there are trees above me is irrelevant when it comes to the presence of light.

Assignment One Favorites

The detail shot gives an abstract view point of the chandelier. Obviously we know what it is, or might know what it is if we look at it, but it still to me gives u an "in your face" type of viewpoint or perspective.


I chose this one because it gives u a feeling of being small. Although I thought I caught more in the shot when I took it, you still get the feeling of looking up.
This one I liked because it gives the feeling as though the viewer is hovering above the chandelier looking down at it, and the table. It's not an angle I normally look at things from either so I thought it was pretty cool the way it all came out.

Goals For The Class

My main goal for the class is to better my already budding skill in photography, and learn skills that I may not know or have. I like mainly landscapes, and night photos. Night photos to me provide lots of color depending on the lighting and the color of that lighting as well. Landscapes pending on the environment just provides for beautiful and serene pictures.
