Final Exam Part 3

This photo is repetition because theirs more then just one biker I count 6 but who knows how many are behind those bikers. Its also merging because some bikers are hiding behind another and some guys are missing a head or a body part because they are merging in together in the photo. Theres also contrast because all of the outfits are different colors even there bikes. 

This photo has leading lines because the track has 9 lanes each runner has a lane separated by 10 lines.

Contrast because there running uniforms are separate colors going by there country.

Repetition because there theres more then one runner theres only 7 in the picture because to of them didn't make the shot.

This picture is rule of thirds because it shows the woman and the tunnel she walked from which is the background. Framing because the the photo is so unique.

Unique perspective because even though its a light it looks like Obama is grabbing the sun.

This photo is defiantly a unique perspective because its a full red moon and its under the Olympics logo acting like its disguise. Balanced photo its the dead center attention of the photo. Framing because its a beautiful moon aligned with the olympics logo under the tower bridge.

Final Exam Part 2

On December 17, 1991 Pablo Escobar's nephew was riding around in his black suburban and 4 gunman pulled up in a green GMC van and shot at him with Mac 10 machine guns. Killing him with multiple shots to the face and chest. 

August 13, 2013 a Monk caught himself on fire for protesting for Monks rights. Similar to Thich Quang Duc who did exactly the same thing during the Vietnam War.

In Austin,Tx a huge project x party went down on a privately own land in which caught on fire and professional photographer Dan Muse caught a picture of a man jumping over a bon fire with one of the owners horses. The rider was later identified by Bill Hagens.

Self Portraits and Portraits review

Tip #3: Use Both Auto and Manual Focus

A good practice to get into when you're taking self-portraits is to use a mix of auto and manual focus. First, focus on your stand-in object using auto focus. Then, with the object still in focus, switch your lens to manual focus.

Tip #5: Capture You

My last tip is to use the images below only loosely as inspiration. A self-portrait should be a very personal expression, not simply a mirror of something you've seen elsewhere. Think about who you want to be and how you want to say that. Use props, scenery, pose and lighting conditions to convey your personality. And most of all, have fun!

Environmental Portraits 

Simplicity and unique perspective and she is submerging from under the water and its in black and white.

Unique perspective, simplicity, contrast and its a beautiful taken shot and how she's laying on the sand where the beach washes up.

Casual Portrait

I like it because its rule of thirds and I'm a die hard cowboys fan

Rule of thirds, balance and once again jimmy johnson wearing a dallas cowboys t shirt.

Formal Portraits

Im a fan of einstein and the impact he has made on this world

I love tigers and I'm fascinated that they an apex predator.

Self Portrait Photography

Its a very unique perspective and a balanced photo. I like it because she's in the water and someone is taking a pic of her.

Unique perspective, contrast, and rule of thirds and once again its a very odd picture but a very good one to.

Quick write: Smart phone app

If i would create an app i would make either a social media app thats like Facebook, twitter, and myspace all together. Or i would make an app that allows people to download unlimited music for free without charge.

Scariest sound ever

The scariest sounds to me are the theme music to insidious, Freddy kruger, and my mom screaming my first middle and last name.

Quick write: My room

My room at home is small just a window and 4 decorated walls with posters with Kanye west, G.O.O.D Music, Kid Cudi, President Obama, Dr. King, and posters of New York. I have queen size bed, 33' Flat screen, stereo, xbox, ps3, book shelf full of dvd's and blu ray movies.

I saw Tommy pull the gun out and aimed it at the photographer. I hear everybody shouting and screaming and hollering. I can smell the the cooking coming from Joe's shop on 54th street. I put my hand on the gun to stop Tommy from pointing the gun on the poor man i can fell the coldness of gun on its barrel. I can taste the air dryer then on a warm sunny day.

I saw Hank and Hilary dancing on my wedding night, Hilary look so happy to be dancing with her husband acting like she hasn't seen him in decades. I hear the roar of the music, people's laughter from having a good time. I smell the food that the catering service brought. I can feel what Hilary is feeling because I'm dancing with my newly wedded wife.

I was driving behind uncle Frank and aunt May when i saw a spider monkey jump up from the back seat onto the top of the seat. I hear the cars honking on a early morning in the morning in Brooklyn. I feel very strange because my aunt and uncle have a spider monkey as a pet. I smell all the exaust pipes coming from all the cars in front of us and from behind us. 

I would like to create something that really sticks outs, something that attracts the human eye and take pictures that really interest people. I would like to take pictures like Robert Capa, and Jerry Uelsmann.
