For this assignment, I chose to take pictures of animals. I used a nice camera that was good with aperture to produce better portrait style pictures of my dogs. This is the best photo I took: Exposure Triangle: Aperture: f5.6 Shutter Speed: 1/30 ISO: 400 Here Are 5 More Photo's That I Liked:During this assignment, I learned that it can be really difficult to take pictures of animals. My one dog was terrified of the camera, and my other one kept trying to make me pet him while I took pictures. I had to bribe them with treats to get them to do what I want. Overall though, I like how my photos turned out.

For this assignment, we had to use photoshop to edit two pictures into pop art style. The first photo was one of myself, and the next was one of my choice, and I chose to edit a picture of my dog Jack. Here's the originals versus the photoshopped versions: During this assignment, I learned how to better use photoshop, using tools such as filters, rulers, canvas, and threshold. This was my first time ever using photoshop for true editing, and I enjoyed it.
For shooting assignment two, I want to take pictures on the topic of animals. I'm hoping I can get better at capturing a personality in a picture, and using the correct aperture for the best picture. These are photographs I found that I plan to use as inspiration for my own: I think these pictures capture the personality of these dogs well, and they're not merely just cute pictures of dogs. I'm hoping I can do this with my own pictures as well.
For this assignment, I had to use the camera in manual mode. It required me to select correct aperture, shutter speed, and ISO, and use elements of composition to produce a good landscape picture. This is my best photo I took: Exposure Triangle: Aperture: f/8.0 Shutter-Speed: 1/40 ISO: 80 Another 5 Photos I took that were good...During this assignment, I learned it can be difficult to try to take landscape photos during sunset. Sometimes the sun is too bright, sometimes it's too dark. It's hard to get it just right. However, I do think the color pay off from the sunset was worth the struggle. I think the colors in my pictures are fairly cool and went pretty well.
For shooting assignment one, I want to focus on landscapes. I hope I can focus on getting better at emphasizing what is important and what is not in a photo, and using good composition techniques to make my photography more appealing. These are some cool examples of winter landscape photography I found online for inspiration: I think these are really cool examples of winter landscape photography. Some have really pretty white and blues, while others have more color from the sunrise or sunset. The roads used in the pictures also add a neat touch. I like how these turned out, so I will also try to take mine using a road to add to the photos.
