Abandoned Theme Parks

I would like to explore the abandoned theme park in Takakanonuma Greenland. This is because of all the open space the park has. The abandoned rides there are probably really good objects to take photos of.

Places to take photos:
-Airport
-School
-Park
-Roof
-Neighborhood

Africa


-This is my favorite photo taken by Nick Brandt because he took it of my favorite animals.
-I think the rule Nick Brandt used was balance. The animals are all well balanced together.
-The camera he uses is
-The reason he takes these photos is to capture african wildlife in their state of being.
-He wants people t see that the animals he takes pictures of are not dangerous.
-"Simply, I find myself moved every time I go to these places and see these animals in these settings."

1.  I totally think our school should do this project.
2. We should use phones only since its  Instagram inspired. It makes it more real.
3. I think the mural would look good in the front of the school right where you walk in, or it should be in the courtyard by the big tree.

Great Black and White Photographers part 3

1. I really like the photographer I picked for my great black and white assignment because he is a fashion photographer, and that is my favorite photographer.

2.

I See people posing, trying to help Irving Penn make a great photo. I also see the cameras flashing.
I Smell anxiety of trying to take the most perfect photo. Irving Penn wanted James Bowie and his wife to look absolutely perfect. He also wanted the perfect angle that makes the models look best.
I Hear the cameras flashing.  The click is music to my ears.
I Taste the amount of hairspray in the air, filling up the whole room.
I Feel the perfection in the room.


3. I would like to show off my photographer by making a power point.

Academic Shoot Reflection and Critique

1. The challenges I encountered while taking the photos trying to follow the rules was probably trying really hard to take good photos and trying to follow the rules.
2. I was thinking mostly of focusing the camera and making the photos not super bright. I had a problem with that.
3. Yes I would do the photo shoot over again because it was a hard assignment for me.
4. The things I would do the same is picking the right classes to shoot at.
5. The rule I will achieve easily will probably be Framing.
6. The hardest rule to achieve was lines.
7. The rule that is mostly not clear to me is probably the rule of thirds. I will probable have to do research on that rule.
