Abandoned Theme Parks

1. Tell me which amusement park featured in the two articles that you would like to visit and take your camera along and what about that park made you want to go there. Write at least a paragraph.

Russian Village, from Niigata Japan and Okpo land, from South Korea.I pick those two because one of them was haunted and the other one a little girl was killed there(I know that might not be the best reason to go somewhere) I'll probably be more interested to visit Okpo land because its haunted and I like haunted places more. Plus I like the way its looks , it has a creepy look to it and I think it'll be funnier to take photos there.

2. Post one photo from that park. You may use the photos from the link, or you can google an entirely new photo. I would prefer to see a photo of the park in disrepair and not a photo of it when it was still operating.

3. Think of at least FIVE other unusual places you think would be of interest to photographers. List them.

Basements & Attics, Abandoned Buildings , Train Stations & Subways ,Alley Ways and ,Traffic. 

4. Use google or another search engine to research ONE of your five places and see if anyone has already started documenting that place. If you find that someone has already started - post at least one photo of their work.

5. Write a paragraph about why you think that it would be fun to document that location. Tell me what interests you about that place and what kind of photos you could expect to take there.

I think it would be fun to take photos some place like this because its big like it has a lot of space and if there lots of things in ruined room like this that would be cool because then I could have more to work with.

6. Tell me what it would take for you to go and take photos at your location. What would you need as far as equipment goes, travel plans, expenses you might encounter and what laws you would have to take into consideration to take photos at your spot.

I would

FUNNY CAPTIONS.

Helping out this kid here isn't so easy for these teacher.
Maybe next he think twice before going crazy

A tough dog  indeed, starting down his enemy.
Too bad he just looked like a pussy.

Someone took my cookies and throw ten in the water , that makes me angry. You won't  like me when I'm angry. 

Great B&W photographers part 3

MINOR WHITE

1.) What first caught your eye while looking at your photographers photos? Is there something in particular about their photos that made you want to choose them?

No not really I only chooses them because I need one I was just randomly pick  until I found something that I though look coo.l. This is what made the cut, I fuss the reason why I stop and choose this one was because well 1 I was tried and 2 I like the lines in this picture and in every other photo he had, had lines.

2.) Look at those 2 photos you posted last time in the assignment Great Black and White Photographers Part 2. Use your five senses to tell me more about those photos. Answer them on your blog.

If I was in this photo I would ..

I see a long road with trees on both sides of the road and the sun rise on the left.

I smell the smell of rain and like storm weather I guess and the smell of grass

I hear the wind blowing 

I taste air.

I feel the light breeze in the air blowing through my fingers and hair.

3.) Finally, what would you like to create to show the world your great photographer. Ideas include, posters, power points, a blog, etc. You tell me what you would like to create so we can come up with a plan to share your thoughts and ideas about your photographer with your classmates and with the rest of the school



What I would do is make a blog about this guy, to show how great of an photography, and if I had to do a present about someone I'll do it about this guy and talk about his photography .

Africa and Mural Project preview

I thought those photo were amazing, they were beautiful I loved them 

This photo here has to be one of my favorite ones, I like the way it captures your eyes and stuff. The baby elephant to me was the main thing I guess.

He used balance, and the rule of thirds, balance because you can form the elepants head to make a triangle.

The camera that he used was  a Pentax 67, with a short lens.

Academic Shoot reflection

1. What challenges did you encounter while trying to get the photos following the rules I set out for you?

For me Balance and Simplicity were really hard to find because I couldn't really find anything that was like that.

2. What technical aspects of photography or the assignment in general (focus, framing, holding the camera, etc.) did you find yourself thinking about the most? Provide a specific example of what you did to do this correctly.


Framing, Lines focus and the tips that he gave us mostly people they were really simple and easy to find.
3. If you could do the assignment again, what would you do differently now that you know some basic rules of photography?

Go to different classes and use my time more wisely and try harder

4. What things would you do the same?
I would keep taking photo the same way I do.

5. When you go out with your next set of prompts, which rule do you think will be the easiest to achieve?

Line, rule of thirds and maybe farming depending on what the prompts are.
6. Which rule do you think will be the hardest to capture?

Balance well mostly because for me is the hardest to find.
7. What rule are you still not totally clear on and what can you do to figure out what that rule is?

Balance I know how it works I just don't know how it looks like for sure and think if I keep practicing  it and keep looking for balance I can understand it better.

Lines-Framing-Rule of Thirds

The subject is the guy there doing something weird,and yes it is clear to people what the subject.If I could do something different here I would crop out some of the right side of the photo up to the blue line to make it look better.

Simplicity
I think the main subject is the girl there laughing , and it should be clear to the people what the subject is.The thing I would do different here is use a different background because then it will be more simpicity I guess I don't know if that makes sense.

 Avoiding Mergers

The  Guy there is the main subject with him looking throw the things.I guess if I had to do something different here is take the photo where you could see his face and yeah.

Balance 

The guys there in a circle are the main subject and I don't think its clear to the people what the subject is because there is things in the background.I not sure what I would do different here, guess not take it.

Lines
The subject is the poles there, I think its clear to the people that the subject is clearly If I had to do something different here I would take this photo when no one is there. 

YES:)

Cheese :)

The story

The best story

The story behind this, is preparing for a show and a dance anything to be performed. You can tell by the way the girl is putting on lipstick and by the people in the background getting dress.

 Best action or emotion

This photo is hilarious, the face of the girl you can just tell how happy she is and i don't know i think its just so funny. Its by far one of best emotion.

 Most interesting stuff

I just like this one, theres a lot going on but then again theres not it evens out .

Post shoot reflection

1. What challenges did you encounter while trying to get the photos of your first 3 prompts (Red, Metal, Happy)

I didn't know if the whole the picture has to be all Metal or Red or Happy and if it was suppose to be all together in one photo.

2. What technical aspects of photography or the assignment in general (focus, framing, holding the camera, etc.) did you find yourself thinking about the most? Provide a specific example of what you did to do this correctly.

Focus because a lot of the photos I took was in a distance and lines too I found them very easy to find.

3. If you could do the assignment again, what would you do differently now that you know some basic rules of photography?

I would use more rule of the thirds and more framing and balance too I think with these rules my photo could have comes out better.

4. What things would you do the same?

The same Objects and the same angles but of course they would be  a bit different.

5. Finally - go back and edit your blogs with the 3 photos (red, metal, happy), tell me what rules of composition (which you just learned about) did you end up actually achieving? Did you have any?

Yes Lines I don't think I think thats about it.

6. Are you interested in shooting those prompts again, why?

Yes or more like something like it, because the prompts are easy to use and allows us to do more with the rules we have.

Avoiding Mergers

The two twin tower are like the maine thing here and the blue sky acts like anise background here.

Framing

Here you can see both of the twin towers , one already hit and one about to be hit by the plane. You can also see the man and the other small buildings , they are framing the towers from an up-right-view.

Balance

For this photo the head of each person(One, two , three) makes a triangle thats were I found balance in this photo.

Lines

The line here might not be diagonal but the still just as dynamic because of the man falling from the picture.This picture does follow the Lines rule.

Rule of Thirds

By using the rule of thirds, the three guys are on the up-right side of the photo. Since the are walking throws the left it gives them plenty of space to walk within the picture. 

Simplicity

In this photo you can see the two twin towers clearly and the black smoke from the top since the sky is clear blue it makes visible.With the blue sky and the twin tower being a light white/gray it following the  simplicity rule.
