EXTRA CREDIT

1.) The man that as killed by the subway was calming a panhandler down after that person, has been harassed. The photographer was able to take this photo, because after trying to help Han get up from the tracks, he was flashing his camera light at the train to stop the train from killing Han.

2.) The photography said he was trying to stop the train from killing Han with his camera light.

3.) I don't think the photographer should have taken the photo, because Han was about to die, instead of taking the photo.

4.) No, i don't think the photographer did the best he could, because he had some what time to do all he could to get Han off the train tracks instead of capturing a photo.

5.) I disagree, becuase some people might get offended by this photo, because its sad, and his family, and friends might not appreciate this, becuase its his death, and it shows him literally 2 seconds away from dieing, and because they'll blame everything on the photographer, than he'll be hated.

6.) I think the importance to a photojournalist, is capturing the photos right when it happens, to actually get the action.

7.) Well its there decision, but i think yes, it is acceptable for the photographer to be in the situation, because people want to see the beautiful photographs, and what actually happens in this world.

8.) I don't think photographers should avoid influencing events, becuase theres beautiful photos, and importance in the photos.

9.) These professional photographers, say its important to get photos that people hardly see, or events that dont happen often.

Academic Shoot Reflection And Critique

1.) The challenges i had were trying to get the camera to  focus, and getting a clear backround.
2.) The technical aspects i was thinking about the most was getting the cammera to focus i feel its a better picture that way.
3.) I would make the backround more clear, focus more on the subject, and make the subject stand out.
4.) I would still think about keeping it at focus, and have interesting things to take photos of.
5.) I think the easiest rule wpuld be, the rule of thirds.
6.) I think the hardest rule would be Simplicity.
7.) Im still not so clear on, simplicity, and avoiding mergers, but i can figure out how to do them by looking it up on the internet looking at different pictures, or go back to the websites thats on our assignments.



Academic Post Shoot AND Peer Reflection

1.)
The rule i followed was leading lines, becuase the lockers are in a line going straight down.
2.) 
The subject of this photo is the guy squeezing the liquid onto his hand.
3.) No, some of these pictures, its not clear of what the subject is.
4.) To make the subject stand out what i could've done was focus the camera on the subject, or get a clear backround.

Africa

1.) From reading these couple of sentemces i see that it was very beautiful enjoying nature and the animals i thought that was petty cool, but i honestly would get impatient waiting for an animal to show up. I would get scared to get near animals, but i would think its pretty cool getting a close up picture on these wild animals, especially if its my favorite animal.
2.)
3.) This photo is one of my favorites because i love how the backround is gray and beautiful i think it really fits this lion roaring becuase it makes it a better beautiful picture, and it makes the lion look like a beast with the dark beautiful backround, and the big lion with sharp teeth and beautiful fur makes this photo stand out the one of the most.
4.) I think this photo would be framing because the picture is taken with the lion roaring in the middle with nothing but clouds around.
5.) Nick Brandt uses the Noctilux and Canon 85mm f/1.2 camera and this is important because the camera he uses might be a better quality of a camera than others and the lens might be way better than others and thats how he gets his good photos.
6.) Nick Brandt's African animals photo's are premonitory memories, taken to aid the cause of staving extincion. They are a combination of beauty, decay, and admonishment.
7.) Nick Brandt takes these African animal photos because he hopes for more of an emotional connection with these animals.
8.) " I just can't get over how fast the natural world of Africa was being wiped out"," I tend to be quiet pessimisstic, but this was worse than even I had imagined. I kept thinking about all these places where these animals had once roamed but no longer did." says Nick Brandt about Africa.

Great Black And White Photographers 3


1.)
What first caught my eye with Ansel Adams photos was the sky, i like how the sky has dark gray clouds, i alsolike the landscapes and the angle everything is in.

2.) I see the beauty of nature, the beautiful mountains, green leaves on the trees, water flowing, smooth rocks i can walk on like a pathway.I see beatiful big white and gray clouds scattered around the sky.
I smell rain that looks like its about to come out the sky. I smell fresh clean air.
I hear trees rusling as the winds go through. I hear the wind whiseling as it goes past my ears. I hear birs chirping.
I taste fresh air as i breath
I feel my hair touching my face while the wind blows through, i feel a nice breeze.

3.) I think to spread the word about the beauty of Ansel Adams photos is making posters and putting them around the school, i hardly see nature photos or hardly any photography as i walk down the halls.


Mural Project

1.) A theme i would choose is something moving but capture a clear picture.
2.) I think we should be allowed to use the cameras and if we have a good camera on our phone than use it.
3.) On campus i would want to put the mural somewhere in either the couryard or cafeteria.
