Macro Lense


This week we have been working mainly with the Macro Lense of the camera. We have been having to get in closer, change our perspective, and focus was key. Without complete stillness on this photo of this chicken, the part that I wanted in focus is actually quite blury and getting out of focus, instead of in focus. Using the macro lense you are really looking for the depth of feild in a photo to be able to get a difernt perspective instead of just looking at the blue chicken, now we can look closer at the texture and depth of field. The other photo is a better example of focus, because you can really see that the red line going through the white is what is in focus. You can almost feel the texture when you look at the picture. I learned a lot about the macro lense during this unit, and also focus + depth of field.

The Pattern on this house is really interesting because of how the camera view is looking up the birdhouse you can see how the patterns all come together and the yellow and the pink

This photo contains lines which makes it so much more interesting because if you look closely at the puddle you can see how it fell on the surface and how it is escaping from the bottle.

This photo shows more texture to make the picture more interesting because when I first saw this, i felt myself running over these rocks, and looking out on the view of the scenery.

The Photographer used the rule of thirds in this picture because the tree wasent directly straight on, they changed the perspective of the shot, shooting upwatrds, and to the side.

The photographer showed depth in this picture because the lady beetle looks like the biggest thing that you can see right through that goes on and on.

Time Stops Breathing For a Moment (EXPLORE!)

I feel that the photographer showed great symetry and timing in this photo. The water droplets are even, and the photo is completely square, so you can see the equal parts of everything on either side.

This is a test post from flickr, a fancy photo sharing thing.

Digital Photography- First Day







During our first day of digital photography we were told to follow the tips of which we learned off the HP website. Taking as many photos of the Villa, and changing the perspective was somthing I focused on. I chose differnt angles, and Differnt camera positionings. The rule of thirds came into action here, I made sure the Villa was not directly on center every time a took a picture of it.
1. Take A lot of Photos
2. Re-Frame
3. Perspective
4. Get In close.

My favourite picture I took was the one through the trees, because its almost like you are looking through the picture, I tried many times to get this picture right, re-framing, rule of thirds, and differnt perspectives.
I tried to use all the tips from the HP video that we watched.
