Reflection Questions Comp

1.) The best shot in this assignment would be the photo of the tower representing rule of thirds because there was more effort in it than any other and because the quality came out to how I wanted it.

2.) The weakest shot would be the park bench representing brightness and sharpness because I feel as though it looks like there isn't a lot of effort compared to the tower. Also, because there is a sort of glare along the words of the bench that ruin the photo in my opinion.

3.) The weakest picture can be improved by retaking the picture and putting more effort into making it apply more to the project.

4.) I used Photoshop on the computer. I used tools such as Levels, color balance, exposure, contrast, and saturation.

5.) I was able to meet the objective/goals of the assignment by putting in the effort and trying my best and overall having fun with it.

6.) The easiest part about the assignment was taking the photos because it was a fun experience to do.

7.) The hardest part about the assignment was editing because it was confusing trying to work on an app I haven't used on a computer before.

8.) If I were to repeat this assignment I'd take different pictures of different things representing the composition.

9.) In this assignment, I'd rate my effort an 6 because I think I could put a little more effort in these photos to make it better and I have little experience.

composition

this represents rule of thirds because the object is not bulls eye and its put off to the side. This photo could also represent "emphasizing height and distance" but i see it as rule of thirds.

this photo represents simplicity because its a simple seagull with a very plain background that's not too busy while it focuses on the bird.

  this photo represents "emphasize foreground" because the horizon is in the upper half of the frame.

this photo represents leading lines because it draws the viewers eyes to follow the line of the road and around the screen.

This photo represents multiple subjects because there is more than 1 thing shown here and the person in the back draws attention to the back making the viewers eyes look around the whole image. 

this photo represents brightness and sharpness because its focused, clear, and has good lighting. 

this photo represents "emphasizing height and distance" because the horizon is on the lower half of the frame making the tower look taller.

this photo represents leading lines because the power lines attract the viewers eyes around the image.

the falling man

i think the photo was included in the "time's magazine 100 best collection" because it was a unique photo of someone actually dying that day during the attack. Also, it was said its a photograph some people could probably relate to in a way and because the photo was a symbol of individuality.

snapshot and artistic photo

What is the difference between a snap shot and artistic photography?

the difference between a snap shot and artistic photography is that a snap shot is just a quick snap photo without the worry of aesthetic while artistic photography focuses on being aesthetic and putting more effort and thought in the details.
