1. I picked this image because it is really simple and she is a natural beauty.

1. I picked this photo because it is a very iconic photo of Muhammad Ali winning his match against a champion.
2. Muhammad Ali was only 23 years old when he went up against Sonny Liston. People were saying that he would not win, but he proved them wrong.
3. It was a rematch with Ali and Liston. They fought again because people kept making excuses on why Ali won.

4. No it is not acceptable to change a person's appearance in photoshop because young girls want to look like the photoshopped version of a model and expect to look perfect, and they start feeling insecure about themselves.

6. I guess it is okay to change the contrast of the photo but not the person.

7. Fashion photography is taking pictures of models in clothes they are trying to sell and make the clothes good. Photography is any type of event in pictures.

8. They are not relatable at all because it is all fake.

9. I think Mr. Reeves is showing us these videos to show us that our self portraits do not have to look perfect like photoshop models.

10. None of these videos are about guys maybe because they aren't so insecure about themselves.  

5 blogs- Style

On the website I looked at, it described how to take a style photo using steps. For example, using line, texture, shape, form, color and pattern.
I learned how to take portraits of people. I can use this in Mr. Reeves class by using the techniques and using the rules to take photos of people.
The article I read did expand my knowledge.

Self Portrait and Portraits part 1

Play with eye contact.It is amazing how much the direction of your subject’s eyes can impact an image. Most portraits have the subject looking down the lens – something that can create a real sense of connection between a subject and those viewing the image

Environmental Portrait 
I like this photo because it shows real life situations.

Shoot Candidly.

I like this environmental portrait because it shows an athlete next to something she is good at.

I like this photography self portrait because I think it is very creative. 

This photography self portrait is very creative and a very interesting idea.

This casual portrait is very cute and I like it because of the pretty background.

I like this casual portrait because of the angle and the background it makes the picture really pretty and porfessional.

For my portrait asignnment I will probably be shooting outside where tons of pretty flowers are located. I will shoot my friends

Sometimes posed shots can look somewhat…. posed. Some people don’t look good in a posed environment and so switching to a candid type approach can work.

American Soldier

A. I think the most powerful picture of the article is picture 5. I think this because it shows how well he is getting along with his peers and leader. His leader even said he is doing well and that he is attached to Ian.
B. The images work together to make a story by putting Ian's emotions in each photo.
C. Captions enhance photos by explaining what is going on in the photo.
D. Ian Fisher said he wanted to enlist into the army the year before his 17th birthday. He started to train hard every day before the day came. After he graduated from his high school he joined. At first Ian Fisher wanted to leave the army only after 2 days of joining. He had a change of heart after talking to his commander.  It was hard for him at first, but after he started being closer to his peers and commander. He joined for God and his Country.
E. First person.
F. 
1. Captions are two or more.
2. They provide information about what is going on in the current photo.
3. They provide quotes.
4. Dates.
5. Yes, some of the captions include a quote.
6. I have only seen once caption with 4 sentences.
G. It is possible because
H. Stories have more background information.
