The Story:
This picture shows the graduation. It shows the ceremony & importance.
















Action & Emotion:
The emotions that she's showing is excitement & amazement.
















Filling the Frame:
The frame in this picture is filled with the actions of the the Bingo players. It's taken upclose to capture what they are doing.

Winter 2008 :D

I like this picture because of the color.
It's still simple but interesting. You don't really notice the guy in the back but because of the colors, it draws attention & makes you look a little further.

Great B&W Photographers Part 3


1.) What first caught your eye while looking at your selections photos? Is there something in particular about their photos that made you want to choose them?

These pictures caught my eye because of the emotion shown in the pictures. There's not a lot to them & that's what attracts me. Simplicity, but at the same time there's enough detail to make them interesting.

2.)

I see...

People in the pictures showing eachother love. There's happiness in the picture on the right.

I smell...

Left: The one on the right was taken outside, so the smells are probably the same as when you go outside. Fresh air, grass, etc.

Right: They're in a restaurant in Paris. It probably smells like different types of foods they serve.

I hear...

Left: Outside=Cars, machines, & the man talking to the woman he's sitting with.

Right: People having conversations in the restaurant, plates crashing together, etc.

I taste...

Outside=Nothing at all

Restaurant=Italian food

I feel...

Outside & in restaurant= happy for the two couples. The pictures show emotion/ how they feel towards eachother.

3.) I like things that are simple yet beautiful. I try to find things that are fun to look at & give people something to think about.

Hurricane Ike Photos


This picture uses the Rule of the Thirds. It
is centered on the man sitting in the chairs
& the main focus is on him.

This picture focuses on the people in it. They
stand out from everything else & are in sharp
focus. The colors they are wearing make them
pop out.
