Final Exam

The famous war photographer who stormed Normandy with the soldiers was Joe Rosenthal. He took 18 photos but the most common photo that survived was the Flag-Raising photo On Iwo Jima. After the war, he created a photo agency called Farm Security Agency (FSA). Franklin D. Roosevelt was also the founder of FSA.

photo creds to me!!!
1. I like this picture because of how she's looking at the camera.
2. I like how the black and white looks better than the color.
3. I like how it makes her look shy cause she's covering her face but yet she's confident because she's looking directly at the camera.
1. I like this picture because he looks happy.
2. I like this picture because he has a nice smile.
3. I like this picture because he doesn't even know I'm taking the picture so it looks cool off guard.


Three benefits to working in groups is that you get to meet new people. Another is that we don't have to be alone so if we get lost or confused about something we can ask each other questions. And the last benefit is you can go outside to take pictures with people you want to take them with not someone you're forced to.

Three disadvantages to working in groups is that if someone messes up on something it messes up everyones grade. Also, we might not all agree on something. And the last disadvantage is that  we all work at different paces. 


Thank you for teaching us this year...

Composition

           I like the rule "Simplify the Scene" because the way the scene looks is very important. It is most important because you shouldn't have a cluttered scene.

           I like the rule "Leaving Space" because it says make it look like the object is looking into white space meaning leaving a little space where there isn't anything happening.

          I like the rule "Focus on the Viewers Attention" because they are the person you are taking the picture of. This is important because you want all the attention to go towards them.
         I like the rule "Watch the Background" because when I take pictures I dont like the background looking all messy. This is important because a messy background is a bad picture.

5) 25 photo composition tips
           I like the "Be Clear" rule because your picture basically needs to tell a story. It's useful because if you aren't clear the viewer won't understand the picture and won't like.
