Macro Photo Assignment #6


This assignment gave me a new respect for aperture and depth of field. I now realize that the depth of field can either make or break a photo. They bring a new perspective and focus the attention where you want it most. This is a photo of an antique curling iron my mom has that is from my great grandmother. ISO-400 Shutter Speed-1/60th Aperture-5

Motion Demo


Well, during this assignment one thing I learned is how hard it can be to take motion photos. It took me many tries and standing out in the bitter cold before I got this photo. I learned how to pan and will be using it on my photo assignment this week since my topic is motion.

Panorama Gimp Assignment


During this Gimp assignment I learned how complicated panoramas are. They take a lot of time and dedication. I love how they turn out in the end, they create really cool perspectives. I learned how to scale, and change the perspective.
