So for my final project I did food and I feel pretty good about it. I found that it was pretty hard to find 12 different objects of food that were interesting. So I decided to find other objects that related to food like wrappers and things that make food or can be made into food. I feel like my best shot was of the strawberry because it has ice on it and it has good light. I feel like my worst shot was my picture of twix wrappers because it was too gray though I did like having a picture that wasn't just an object of food but something that was related to it.

Final Project Food

For my final project I'm doing food and drinks. I had no idea what I was going to do for this assignment so I talked to some people and Porter gave me this idea and I liked the idea. For this assignment I wanted to shoot food moving and close ups. I figure that the the most important thing I need to do is find good light and interesting food objects though i think that finding 12 different food objects will be hard.

Assignment #8 Redo

For my Redo I chose the Get On Your Belly assignment and I think I did a lot better than my previous Get On Your Belly pictures. I found some good light and that helped a lot. My favorite picture would probably have to be the picture of the batteries because it is sharp and has good light.

Assingnment#7 Numbers

I felt like I did really bad on this assignment. I had a big problem with focusing almost all of my pictures were out of focus. I think I'm going to use this assignment as my redo because I just learned how to use the manual focus. The two pictures I did feel like were good photo's were the 5 dollar bill and the knifes that made the number 44.

Assignment#6 Portraits

I liked my pictures over all but I don't think that they were great. I don't think I spent enough time shooting though I did end up with a few pictures that were good. I liked my self portrait though I didn't like shooting me. I really liked the picture of my sister sitting in the window even though the background distracts from the portrait I really liked the light in that one. Portraits was not my favorite assignment but it was still fun to take pictures of people even if my sisters were not very willing.

Get on your Belly Pictures

I felt like I did ok on this assignment the first time I shot my pictures on the ground but some of my pictures looked like I could have shot standing up. The second time I went shooting I did better I feel like you could tell that I was shooting from the ground or below though it looks like to me that my pictures were a little gray.
