Capturing Motion Blur Demo

This is my attempt pf capturing motion blur. I think I did an okay job getting the background blurred and the cyclist clear. The feet and tires are still a little bit fuzzy, though. 

Inspiration for Assignment #3

For my third assignment, I plan to do macro. These are my inspiration for it...

this one  (Shows the use of toys)

this one  (Showing a faded background)

and this one  (Showing food)

Inspiration for Assignment #2

My inspiration for my previous entry for 'Assignment #2: Architecture" are the following links...

this one (Showing some sort of castle structure)

this one  (Showing skyscrapers)

and this one (Showing inserting ceiling decor)

Assignment #2: Architecture

For this assignment, I decided to do architecture.
ISO: None
Fstop: None
Focal length: None
Exposure: None
--------------------------------------------------
Architecture = "Old Barn"
Architecture = "Comerica Park"
Architecture = "Regal Castle"
Architecture = "Skyward"
Architecture = "City Streets"
Architecture = "Collection of Buildings"
Architecture = "Mall Ceiling"
Architecture = "Castle's Edge"
Architecture = "Above the Trees"
Architecture = "Small Buildings"
Architecture = "Castle Roof"



What I learned from this assignment was that you can make pictures of buildings/architecture a little more interesting by changing the perspective of the picture, and finding a different position to stand when taking the picture so you can capture an entire new side of the architecture that no one has seen before.

Car Editing Assignment

 For this assignment, we had to take a picture of

Before

<--- this car, and edit it to make it look like it was in a magazine. My final project is the picture below.

After

What it needed to look like

This picture (above) was what my edited one needed to look like.

Assignment #1: Animal

ISO: 1600

Fstop: f/3.7

Focal length: 6.30

Exposure: 1/25

For this assignment, I chose to do animals.


<---This was my best picture for this assignment

Animal = "Big Nose"
Animal = "Chicken Face"
Animal = "Christmas Dog"
Animal =  "First Time Driver"
Animal = "Guinea's Meal"
Animal = "Drowsy"
Animal = "The Aventurer"
Animal = "Eating"
Animal = "Camera Shy"
Animal = "Froggy"
Animal = "Happy Puppy"




What I learned from this assignment was that taking extra picture of your pets (thinking it's just for fun) is really necessary because it actually turns out that you need them to get an adequate grade.

Different Color Faces

For this assignment, we had to take a picture of a person and copy the picture four times, and have each picture a different color (Using these four colors) in this same format. 

But this one's just for fun!

Shooting Assignments

For this first shooting assignment, the inspiration (On Flickr) for my pictures are from these three links...

this one (Showing still life)

this one (Showing light and shadows)

and this one (Showing motion)

I'm hoping to catch one of these three stylistic types of shooting for my first assignment.
