Week 2


Part One: Point of View


Initial Shot-


Issue- There is so much going around this old truck. I did try this photo in b & w but it didn't really help. This assignment taught me that just by changing the perspective you can eliminate a lot of the noise going on around your subject and also produce more powerful shots.






Part Two: Less is More


Issue- I was shooting these shoots right at dusk and the limited light caused some challenges. Most of which could have been eliminated with a tri-pod...but I didn't
have mine with me.  I was able to use a few headstones
 and things to help keep the camera still. Next time
I won't forget it.

Part One: Character/Details




I really enjoyed this assignment. My daughter loves horses and is a cowgirl at heart so I had fun capturing some of details that I will always want to remember. The first picture I really liked but I felt like it was too distracting in color. There is a lot going on in the background with all the people and the colors that they are wearing so I changed from color to b & w.  I liked way that the b & w contributed to the rustic western feel so I made the other two photos b & w as well.

Part Two: Character/Conflict
