Assignment One (test)

This is one of the many images I took for our first Assignment, Bracketing. I have not had time to do anything with it but I just wanted practice uploading from Lightroom. So here it is.

Lois Greenfield

Emily and I found Lois Greenfield in winter term while looking at Photo books in the library. He does an amazing job with movement. I will upload more of his pictures soon. I promise.

Taiwan!!

This is an amazing sight on the coast.  This is a sight that appears in almost all of the history books in Taiwan.  It was a wonderful think to be able to see.  

The orange building is a theater outside a big memorial in Taiwan.  It is for one of the main founders who came over from Chine looking for a safe place.  It was a really cool thing to get to see.  The actual memorial actually looked a lot like the Lincoln memorial.  I also think that the garden is beautiful.  Their landscaping was awesome.  Notice the sweet crazy tree on the right side of the image.  

This is the side of the actual memorial.  

Here is a closer look at the theater you see two images up.  I think their buildings are beautiful there.  The design was obviously well thought out for each building.  

This is Taipai 101 in Taiwan.  This was once the world's tallest building.  I am not sure if it still is, I think there is another building being built that is taller.  But anyway it was way cool. I also think the clouds make it look even cooler.  This image doesn't make it look very tall because it is so zoomed in but it was VERY tall! 

I think this image is so cool the way that the mountains are reflected around the bridge.  I also thought this bridge was absolutely beautiful. It is really hard to see here but it was red with really pretty designs on it.  

Hey look this one is me! Natalie took this picture (her camera is broken so she used mine a lot). I think this lake is really pretty.  It was really serene and beautiful. Of course right after this picture two of the people out on one of the boats almost tipped their boat.  But still the picture looks serene! :)

Henri Cartier-Bresson

I love this picture. I think the light and set up of this picture is simply amazing. I also really like the pose the figure is holding. He looks like he is running towards someone or something. The question is what is he running to? Henri did not take a picture of where he was going, only where he came from. This really makes me think about where he is going and why.
The other great thing about this picture is how much is going on. This is a picture with a lot going on yet my eye is still drawn immediately to the dark figure. I think that is because of how much darker he is compared to the rest of the image.

This is another of Henri's pictures that I love. I think the set up of this image is absolutely stunning. The staircase leads your eye directly to the biker. Again in this image the main part of the photo is black causing it to stand out. Henri does a great job of keeping his images interesting yet not busy.

This image makes me laugh. I think it is so cute! My guess is that it is two little boys, but I do not know that for sure. This simply reminds me of childhood. I feel like Henri does a great job of capturing emotion.

Dear Mr. Slade: HELP!

I seem to be having a lot of problems lately, I think I might have made the photo fairies mad.  But anyway my camera is going crazy.  I just put new batteries in it and after I took like 4 pictures is told me I had a low battery.  I tried putting two more new batteries in, and it said the same thing.  Then it stopped taking pictures when i pushed the button.   I swear it is possessed. Luckily I have most of the assignment done.  I will be bring my camera tomorrow so that you can heal it with your healing powers! 

Dear Mr. Slade

In the assignment you tell us to use the histogram. How do we do that?! You never educated us on this part of the camera.  I think I will consult my sister but I feel silly having to ask my younger sister this information. I guess I will suck it up and lower myself! Here goes nothing...

Hey Mr. Slade

Hey there!!
You asked me to write you a note, so here it is! You asked me to talk to you about fall term and so here you go! My big problem last term was printing. I didn't feel confident in myself to print things correctly. It was hard for me to see the colors and I could never really tell what I liked and what I didn't. Once I corrected them and got them printed I liked what I did. The hard part was just figuring it how much to color correct and what to use.
Hopefully I will get better this term. I have full confidence that eventually it will come!

New Term!!

Hello all fellow Photo blog buddies! Welcome to a new term of Photo. It is great to see all of you again! I hope everyone had a great Spring Break. Mine was wonderful. I went to Taiwan to visit my cousin the first week of Break. It was an amazing trip, he is awesome. Natalie and I spent a week exploring Taiwan. It is a beautiful place with some wonderful food. I will be uploading pictures soon for you all to enjoy. The second week of Spring Break was also fun. We went to the east coast to look at colleges. I saw A LOT of colleges but it was pretty cool. They all look like so much fun. So yea that was my busy break, but it was a party break. I hope you all had as fun a break as I did. Now back to class...! Happy Spring!
