DON'T FALL!


       This photograph is of my sister Alyssa sitting on a bench. This picture is breaking the rules of balance, she is sitting at the very edge of the bench on the right side of the photo with nothing else on the left side. It looks like the bench is going to tip at any moment. I tested it with two people side by side at the right side but it did not look as off-balanced as this one. I shot this photograph with my Canon Rebel T3 with the basic 18-55 mm lens with a shutter speed of 1/250 and an aperture of 10. I enjoyed this assignment because it gave me a chance to break all the rule Mr.Burton stressed about last year.

Meow.



I enjoyed painting with light because this is not something I normally get the chance to experiment with. At first it was really hard to get the photograph to look like I wanted to because I could not see where I was shining the lights, I also had to keep moving around to make sure I did not show up in the photograph. We were working in the dark so before I could even start making Michelle into a cat I had to shine her in, I then painted in the whiskers and ears and then added the birds that she is looking at ready to chase. To take this photograph i used my Canon Rebel T3 with a shutter speed of 30 and an f-stop of (dont know). I had a lot of fun playing around with this and making my model Michelle into a lot of funny things.

Sun-kissed


I used mixed lighting for this photography. Using sunlight and a disk to reflect another light source on my model Michelle as well as the overhead lighting from the school lights, lights this photo beautifully, and compliments my model. I used a shutter speed of 1/60 and an f-stop of (need to figure out). I took this photo with my Canon Rebel T3 with the basic lens of 18-55 mm. Michelle has a very innocent look to her in the photograph that I really enjoyed and happy I captured it. I got to play around a lot with mixed lighting and I really enjoyed this part of the assignment.
