Her name is Denise McGill. She travels to other countries around the world and takes pictures of different things such as the AIDS epidemic. She had a variety of different pictures up for display, each with their own story, one always very different then the other. I was very moved by her work so I asked her about it. I asked her if people were her favorite subject to photograph since most of her pictures were of people of all different ages and she said yes. I asked her about her relationship between the people she is photographing and her. She said she tells the people that she wants to take pictures of them and share their story with the world and then starts shooting away. She said sometimes it may get awkward if her subject is struggling through a crisis or problem but she is there to do her job so she said she still takes pictures of them even if their going through something unfortunate. It really was an honor getting to meet her and see her work and hear her talk about it.Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16949315089118365201noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7332785725178916049.post-81700583030050224482008-10-04T13:54:00.001-07:002008-10-04T15:25:02.316-07:00I got to play with an AWESOME EXPENSIVE digital camera today!!!!<div align="center">So this weekend I got to play with a really nice canon slr camera. And of course I loved it and now I want one!!! But here are some picture of what I did with the camera. Some are photoshopped and some are not. Enjoy :)<br /><br /></div><br /><div align="center">This first one is taken at the dance studios. I zoomed in and focused on the doorway which made the ballet bar blurry.</div><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfhtbQ2PhI/AAAAAAAAAOA/z1IqJy03H-k/s1600-h/Picture+204.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253415660879756818" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfhtbQ2PhI/AAAAAAAAAOA/z1IqJy03H-k/s400/Picture+204.jpg" border="0" /></a> In this one I focused only on the ballet bar making everything around and behind it blurry. This is an example of depth of field.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfhtTI9JLI/AAAAAAAAAOI/80rwWYIS_3k/s1600-h/Picture+206.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253415658699170994" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfhtTI9JLI/AAAAAAAAAOI/80rwWYIS_3k/s400/Picture+206.jpg" border="0" /></a> This picture is similar to the first ones I zoomed in on the arm of the bench that is in the bottom of the picture which made it blurry. Then that made the rest of the bench focused but everything behind it still blurry.<br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfhRKLUKlI/AAAAAAAAANg/XgDgxtyF7CA/s1600-h/Picture+080.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253415175256812114" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfhRKLUKlI/AAAAAAAAANg/XgDgxtyF7CA/s400/Picture+080.jpg" border="0" /></a> This one was pretty cool. This is down at the roots and blues festival. This lady walked in my shot at just the right time. I was using a low shutter speed so since she was in motion when the picture she is blurry and all the objects and people around that are not moving, are in focus :)<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfhRqJLQpI/AAAAAAAAANo/uhmZ2OJeZgA/s1600-h/Picture+105.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253415183837774482" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfhRqJLQpI/AAAAAAAAANo/uhmZ2OJeZgA/s400/Picture+105.jpg" border="0" /></a>Again, this is just me being stupid and playing with the settings. This is me in the mirror of the dance studios using a high shutter speed.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfhRtoIEkI/AAAAAAAAANw/0k1KhFpjdNQ/s1600-h/Picture+192.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253415184772895298" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfhRtoIEkI/AAAAAAAAANw/0k1KhFpjdNQ/s400/Picture+192.jpg" border="0" /></a> And this is me in the mirror moving my leg and using a slow shutter speed so it made me blurry since my whole body was moving.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfhRwAGgoI/AAAAAAAAAN4/83n1YPNcIqE/s1600-h/Picture+195.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253415185410327170" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfhRwAGgoI/AAAAAAAAAN4/83n1YPNcIqE/s400/Picture+195.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />This is another example of a high shutter speed. I walked by this squirrel on the way back from the roots and blues festival and as I walked by he didnt even budge. I was only a few feet away from him so I decided to take advantage of the brave little squirrel. He was eating this nut that is in his hands and so I set a high shutter speed and snapped this picture. His little hands and head is moving but you cant tell because of the shutter speed being so high :)<br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfesn4x-tI/AAAAAAAAANI/8wBXCdvXFEQ/s1600-h/squirrel+copy.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253412348553722578" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfesn4x-tI/AAAAAAAAANI/8wBXCdvXFEQ/s400/squirrel+copy.jpg" border="0" /></a> These next 2 are really cool. I was messing with the aperture I focused the lens on the tree bark and then moved the shot over and took the picture, making the grass and building behind it blurry.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfes9QOFmI/AAAAAAAAANQ/mZgryJwRCTk/s1600-h/tree+in+focus.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253412354289178210" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfes9QOFmI/AAAAAAAAANQ/mZgryJwRCTk/s400/tree+in+focus.jpg" border="0" /></a> Then for this one I focused the lens only on the grass and building, then moved the shot over to the tree and took the picture, and that made the tree blurry but everything else focused :)</div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253426402600135810" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfrerSjrII/AAAAAAAAAOg/hc4qqE5NSpI/s400/tree+out+of+focus.jpg" border="0" />This is while I was taking picture of the tree. I saw a guy coming so I set up my shot and took it right as he went by and it made him and the background blurry but the tree remained in focus. This is a result of a slow shutter speed and a big aperture.</div><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253427686422715698" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfspZ5tnTI/AAAAAAAAAOo/odxbgyQYxoQ/s400/guy+walking.jpg" border="0" /><br /><div>The next few are like the pictures above of the bench and ballet bar. This is of the piano taken in the ballet studio that our accompanist plays. Basically I kept changing the aperture then focusing the lens on different parts of the piano.<br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfbjG3pNpI/AAAAAAAAAMw/2GTaANXG_H8/s1600-h/piano+2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253408886536877714" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfbjG3pNpI/AAAAAAAAAMw/2GTaANXG_H8/s400/piano+2.jpg" border="0" /></a> I also photoshopped these pictures a tiny bit. All I did was increase the contrast and then change the brightness level if needed.</div><div>(The one below is one of my favs)<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfbjqxh3aI/AAAAAAAAAM4/9Bfn8hWZsyQ/s1600-h/piano+3.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253408896174906786" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfbjqxh3aI/AAAAAAAAAM4/9Bfn8hWZsyQ/s400/piano+3.jpg" border="0" /></a> This one is taken at a different angle then the rest. I focused on the piano and the dance studio and bars are all out of focus.<br /><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253408902475458370" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfbkCPsp0I/AAAAAAAAANA/MTN3keBDwcw/s400/piano+studio.jpg" border="0" /> The part closest to the camera is in focus and everything else isnt. I love this one :)<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfZ5eUDSII/AAAAAAAAAMo/Mg7Fu502Znc/s1600-h/piano.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253407071763908738" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfZ5eUDSII/AAAAAAAAAMo/Mg7Fu502Znc/s400/piano.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />These little girls were playing in the creek down at the roots and blues festival. I set the shutter speed really high so they wouldnt be blurry for this. They are actually running around on the rocks but because of the high shutter speed they are totally in focus :) I also photoshopped this one I just thought it was cute to have them be the only thing in color.<br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfY1APWQ0I/AAAAAAAAAMQ/5m3AZqgoiPI/s1600-h/girls.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253405895460012866" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfY1APWQ0I/AAAAAAAAAMQ/5m3AZqgoiPI/s400/girls.jpg" border="0" /></a> But, here I just changed the contrast so you can get the full effect. </div><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfY1a3-UPI/AAAAAAAAAMY/YkxYVHnBMRI/s1600-h/girls+color.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5253405902609731826" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SOfY1a3-UPI/AAAAAAAAAMY/YkxYVHnBMRI/s400/girls+color.jpg" border="0" /></a></div></div></div></div></div></div><br /><div align="center">So, this is a little bit of what I did on my saturday. And I definatelt will have a camera like this on my christmas list this year! It is so much fun to take pictures with this kind of camera. What do you think? Which ones are your favorites? I am excited because next weekend is a 3 day weekend and I am going home and hopefully taking pictures of Kayla and Amelia (2 little girls I babysit) Kayla is 8 and adorable, and Amelia is 2 and adorable. She is the same little girl I took pictures of earlier in the ballet outfit. I want to take them to the park and take pictures of them playing together. Do you think thats a good idea? </div>Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16949315089118365201noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7332785725178916049.post-44872925352086164762008-09-24T16:31:00.000-07:002008-09-24T17:19:06.170-07:00My word inspiration!

Framing a picture<div align="center">Part one: Word Inspiration</div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SNlcCCz32tI/AAAAAAAAAJQ/YzWo9HiDQ8o/s1600-h/DSC01197.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5249328030860958418" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SNlcCCz32tI/AAAAAAAAAJQ/YzWo9HiDQ8o/s400/DSC01197.JPG" border="0" /></a> I felt the top picture did not work very well to express my word. I dont like the angle of the womans hand on top of the mans. The hands make a weird angle and look somewhat distorted.<br /><br /><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">I like the bottom picture a lot though. It works better because the two hands are not in the same position. They are also interacting with each other rather then just displaying something.<br /></div><p align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5249328039010920514" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SNlcChK-aEI/AAAAAAAAAJY/9gn3kNjEWmQ/s400/DSC01193.JPG" border="0" /> Part two: Object or body part<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SNlbQQvYhfI/AAAAAAAAAJA/X4nf9zYvLOs/s1600-h/DSC01134.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5249327175606765042" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SNlbQQvYhfI/AAAAAAAAAJA/X4nf9zYvLOs/s400/DSC01134.JPG" border="0" /></a> For this part of the assignment I chose a bird bath as my object. The top one is the one I dont like. The bird bath is too centered and too symetrical. It makes the picture boring to look at because not much is going on. Your eye doesnt focus on anything but the bath itself which is not what I was going for.</p><p align="center">The picture below I feel is a lot more interesting. The bird bath is off to the side of the frame which opens up the picture and allows you to look at the bird bath but also the building and nature that is behind it.<br /></p><p align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SNlbQzY0wsI/AAAAAAAAAJI/A423jRxo9PA/s1600-h/DSC01133.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5249327184907387586" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SNlbQzY0wsI/AAAAAAAAAJI/A423jRxo9PA/s400/DSC01133.JPG" border="0" /></a> <span style="font-size:130%;">Part 3: Landscape</span><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SNlaNw1mxhI/AAAAAAAAAIw/-MquqGsqNB4/s1600-h/DSC01095.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5249326033171564050" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SNlaNw1mxhI/AAAAAAAAAIw/-MquqGsqNB4/s400/DSC01095.JPG" border="0" /></a></p><p align="center"> For this part of the assignment I chose a landscape that had more going on then just classic land and then sky. I took many pictures of this area in different ways. The picture above I dont feel worked very well overall. I dont like the building in the background of the tree because it makes the nature part go away a little bit I feel. I also dont like that the tree is smack in the middle, drawing our eyes to it.</p><p align="center">The bottom picture I feel worked a lot better. I like that you can see mostly grass but a small piece of sidewalk on the lower left side. I also like that the tree is a little off center from the frame because I think it makes it look more interesting. Overall there is more to look at and less to get distracted by in this picture.<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SNlaOjsrfQI/AAAAAAAAAI4/yuoOIgYvSy4/s1600-h/DSC01107.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5249326046824332546" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SNlaOjsrfQI/AAAAAAAAAI4/yuoOIgYvSy4/s400/DSC01107.JPG" border="0" /></a></p>Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16949315089118365201noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7332785725178916049.post-85098577491354258442008-09-17T21:09:00.000-07:002008-09-17T22:04:03.169-07:00I am in L O V E with these edited photos!!! :)<div align="center"> This is my second attempt at a collage for Amelia I like it a lot better then the first one.<br /></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5247214855639253106" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SNHaHDqHwHI/AAAAAAAAAHw/4KYBLAkwbuM/s400/amelia+collage+good+copy.jpg" border="0" /><br />This is the first collage I made.

I first took pictures of the little girl I babysit. She is 2 years old and her name is Amelia. I got her dressed up in a ballet outfit with a few props to go with it and we went down to my basemtent and had so much fun taking pictures. She is such a ham and she loves being in front of the camera. I got some really great shots of her.</div><br /><div><br />Then next I took pictures of my best friend Kathryn and her 3 year old son Carson. Carson is wild and crazy and sometimes Kathryn wants to pull her hair out but their unconditional love for one another was what I most wanted to capture in my pictures. So, we went to one of the local parks and while they played and looked at things, I took pictures. Trying to capture that unspoken bond between a mother and her child. I think all of the pictures I took capture that because you cant hide your true feelings for another person from the camera. </div><br /><div><br />I love to take pictures of people doing anything to express love or any other emotion. The expressive element is definately what I wanted to focus most on for this assignment.<br /></div><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SM7G3X57YYI/AAAAAAAAAG4/I0dQ0WbuFSI/s1600-h/DSC00893.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246349270545293698" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SM7G3X57YYI/AAAAAAAAAG4/I0dQ0WbuFSI/s400/DSC00893.JPG" border="0" /></a> In this picture Amelia is trying on a pair of pointe shoes. For those who dont know when you begin ballet you have to go many many years and get strong feet and ankles before you can have your own pointe shoes. Any little girl who loves to take ballet aspires to be on pointe someday. To me, this picture represents a little ballerinas hope of getting her own pointe shoes one day and how much she aspires and looks up to the girl who's shoes she is trying on.</div><div><br /></div><div>In the photoshopped image I defined the colors and contrast more to make it more interesting to look at. I also began experimenting with different tools. I copied the picture in the top right corner as a kind of representation to what this little girls hopes to be able to do someday. </div><br /><p><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SM7G35xqnMI/AAAAAAAAAHA/CF1SWNEDTfQ/s1600-h/amelia2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246349279637445826" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SM7G35xqnMI/AAAAAAAAAHA/CF1SWNEDTfQ/s400/amelia2.jpg" border="0" /></a></p><br /><p></p><br /><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246349281414367634" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SM7G4AZUSZI/AAAAAAAAAHI/q2o4k7y41zM/s400/DSC00979.JPG" border="0" /></p><br /><p>This next picture is the picture I want to use for the class critique. It is of Kathryn and her son Carson walking around the park. I like this picture because they are holding hands and looking at one another, once again showing their love for each other. I also like the water and trees in front of them. It gives a very calming effect to the picture. </p><p>In the photoshopped photo I enhanced the contrast and brightness. Then I kept the subjects in color and made the rest of the photo black and white. I did this because I want the main focus of the viewers to be on Kathryn and Carson. I really like how this picture turned out because despite most of the picture being black and white, there are still some really vivid colors in this picture.<br /></p><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246354518365843250" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SM7Lo1j2LzI/AAAAAAAAAHo/mVUyO8cyOi4/s400/kat+and+car+good+copy.jpg" border="0" /><br /></div><div></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246351039110149826" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SM7IeUUpdsI/AAAAAAAAAHY/aIZVHpUslRw/s400/DSC01004.JPG" border="0" /> In this picture Kathryn and Carson are on the bridge at the park. She kept holding him up and kissing his tummy and blowing on it, of course making Carson laugh uncontrollably. I like this picture because I caught that moment in Carson of pure delight and happiness in his face.<br /><br />In the photoshopped photo I enhanced mainly the green in his shirt but I also enhanced all the colors and the contrast between them all.<br /><br /><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246351044782820146" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SM7IepdHizI/AAAAAAAAAHg/oxytCwTu9rE/s400/holding+car+2.jpg" border="0" /></div>Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16949315089118365201noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7332785725178916049.post-91263268491815342282008-09-12T11:49:00.000-07:002008-09-12T11:53:47.517-07:00Jeremy Baker (Photographer, assignment #2)<div> The person I chose to do this assignment on is my high school photography and art teacher. His name is Jeremy Baker and he is thirty four years old. He was born in Myrtle Beach, SC and he moved to Independence Missouri when he was about five. Today he lives in Blue Springs Missouri and teaches art and photography at Blue Springs South High School. He is married and has two beautiful little boys.<br /><br /> Jeremy’s interest in photography began when he was in high school. He took a basic level photography class and did very well, so he decided to explorer further into the world of photography. He likes to take picture of everything so it was difficult for him to pick just one kind of photography that is his favorite. His boys are two of his favorite subjects though, so portraits are one kind of photography he does and does well. He told me a story about another kind of photography he likes to do as well. Every once in a while he will take someone’s senior portraits and if they are outside or anywhere and Jeremy finds something that catches his attention, the senior pictures get put on hold and he goes off and takes pictures of nature or any other number of things he happens to see.<br /><br /> Before I talk about the picture he took I’m going to share a little background of the picture and why Jeremy decided to take it and what the picture means to him. The image is of his son Kylan. He took it when he and his family were on vacation at a beach in North Carolina. Jeremy grew up around the beach every summer, so the ocean was nothing new to him, but for his sons, it was the first time they had ever seen the ocean. He told me that his entire family went to the beach one day and Kylan just walked into the water and felt it. It was a very solemn moment. Jeremy took the shot and later did some edits on Photoshop. He took the color out of the ocean and left it in the child. To Jeremy, the picture represents the curiosity of a child, their ability to soak-in their surroundings, and basically the life created and sustained by the ocean.</div><br /><div></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5245209629384150850" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SMq6Xhvmj0I/AAAAAAAAAGw/cfBRYRI-3DM/s400/kylan.bmp" border="0" /> In this photo, the first place my eye moves to is the child. With mostly the water in the picture the eye automatically focuses on the main place of interest, or the place where there is the most going on, and in this picture it is the child feeling the ocean water. This photo is very expressive to me. The little curious child is feeling the water and touching for the first time something that is so much bigger then him. To me, it represents the innocence and curiosity of a child, which is a very expressive meaning.<br /> <br /> This picture is not only a portrait, but a landscape as well. The ocean makes some nice organic shapes in the picture but is has representational shapes as well (I.E. the child). The areas that are the sharpest and stand out the most is the child in the water, where the water is all flowing together and not really standing out as much as the child.<br /><br /> There are definitely shadows in the water and also in the wave that is coming up in the distance. The natural light in the photo provides us with the information that it was day time when the picture was taken. There is also a very soft light to the picture, perhaps the kind of light that would appear just after a rain storm. There are also a lot of evident lines in the picture as well. The most prominent one is that of the ocean line meeting with the sky. It is a very thick, straight line and it doesn’t interfere with the subject of the photo which makes the line even more noticeable. There are also many lines in the ocean water itself which creates the illusion of the ocean moving towards the camera.<br /><br /> There is a lot of depth in the picture. You can clearly see that the sky is very far away behind the child, who is close up to the camera. The flowing ocean water creates the effect of depth in the picture. The texture of the water is also very prominent in this picture. If someone were to feel the picture they would feel water and the bubbles on the surface of it. The picture also has a lot of color value. There are very clear lights and darks in the picture. The lightest values are the bubbles in the water and the sky, and the darkest values are the wave coming up on the right side and the child’s shorts.<br /><br /> Overall, this is a great picture because it has great composition, lines, and value, as well as meaning. This picture can be interpreted many different ways but any way you look at it, it is still a beautiful picture of a small child feeling the big ocean, for the first time. <br /><div></div>Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16949315089118365201noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7332785725178916049.post-56676647666275136202008-09-10T20:17:00.000-07:002008-09-10T22:58:30.887-07:00More Photoshop edits!!<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SMix-ruFJ0I/AAAAAAAAAGo/7mc4i7eC5yg/s1600-h/owl+butterfly+small.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5244637456518948674" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SMix-ruFJ0I/AAAAAAAAAGo/7mc4i7eC5yg/s400/owl+butterfly+small.jpg" border="0" /></a> Owl Butterfly :)<br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SMitM8XEHII/AAAAAAAAAGY/4HEt_p7qT50/s1600-h/DSC007111+copy.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5244632203945843842" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SMitM8XEHII/AAAAAAAAAGY/4HEt_p7qT50/s400/DSC007111+copy.jpg" border="0" /></a> I colored my once pink pointe shoes blue :)<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SMitNDFYnMI/AAAAAAAAAGg/abFLzMOiuxo/s1600-h/hiding+butterfly+small.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5244632205750738114" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SMitNDFYnMI/AAAAAAAAAGg/abFLzMOiuxo/s400/hiding+butterfly+small.jpg" border="0" /></a> this butterfly was hiding behind the leaves i thought it was so cute!<br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SMisFdxttSI/AAAAAAAAAGI/p4Vr4JCZaA0/s1600-h/DSC00711+copy.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5244630975965410594" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SMisFdxttSI/AAAAAAAAAGI/p4Vr4JCZaA0/s400/DSC00711+copy.jpg" border="0" /></a> my pointe shoes with increased contrast so the colors stand out more.<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SMisF6eXyVI/AAAAAAAAAGQ/KJffMY0NTcA/s1600-h/DSC00721+copy.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5244630983668910418" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SMisF6eXyVI/AAAAAAAAAGQ/KJffMY0NTcA/s400/DSC00721+copy.jpg" border="0" /></a> I increased the colors and intensity of the colored pencils.<br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SMiei4KHm2I/AAAAAAAAAF4/474zxamwEGI/s1600-h/DSC00383+copy.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5244616088100510562" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SMiei4KHm2I/AAAAAAAAAF4/474zxamwEGI/s400/DSC00383+copy.jpg" border="0" /></a> My dog bagel :) I made him a little darker so the light didnt reflect off his white fur so much.

The first one I love because I captured them while they were in the middle of doing their ballet dance. It is so perfect because they are all doing different things with their bodys, which just proves how adorable little girls are because only one or two girls actually knew what steps came after what. <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SLS7SPwd-CI/AAAAAAAAAAY/bejg7KoPUO4/s1600-h/sc00b44950.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5239018188680591394" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3v4_F_Mmxyg/SLS7SPwd-CI/AAAAAAAAAAY/bejg7KoPUO4/s400/sc00b44950.jpg" border="0" /></a> It is always the A+ effort that counts the most and the picture clearly shows how much they are all trying to be perfect ballerinas.<br /><br />The second picture is of another little girl named Morgan. I also used to teach her dance as well. In this picture she is trying on my pointe shoes. I love this picture because you can see how much she loves trying on the "big girl" shoes she one day wants to wear. Little ballerinas look forward to being on pointe shoes from the moment they first see a real ballerina dancing in them and this picture captures how much she wants to wear them and how much she looks up to the big girls and all the dance steps they know how to do.Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16949315089118365201noreply@blogger.com2
