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.
