capturing action and motion

| perlaj41

Tip for shooting motion blur, for motion blur make sure your shutter speed is REALLY low, the lower the better since your aim is for your picture to have blur the more the better.

Tip for shooting action sharp, for action sharp the goal is to capture a moving subject without having any blur, so first make sure your shutter speed is SUPER FAST the faster the better because you’ll have to move fast to capture your moving target or your picture will be taken too late and you won’t get what you want.

Depth of Field Explained

Field of depth.

Field of depth is basically a photo where there’s a point of focus that appears sharp as well as either the front or back of the point of focus. Different factors will vary the zone of focus in your photos, the different factors being Your aperture setting of the lens and the distance between your subject and your camera. Messing around with your camera settings and composition, you can determine which amount of your picture turns sharp and which is blurred. Most images with a good amount of sharpness that’s acceptable is an example of having a deep depth of field.

Although a photo has shallow depth of field doesn’t mean it isn’t a good photo, Shallow depth of field photos is better for portraits like for yearbook photos or for focusing on one subject instead of a whole photo. Shallow depth of field photos has a blurred background and only focus on one subject. Depth of field is an important artistic key to each photo. Whether you have a Shallow depth of field or a Deep depth of field, it can make a difference to your photo It just depends on what you took a photo of like either a landscape and or a portrait.

 

Framing

Critique your own photographs.

    1. Do I have good composition? I’d say so, I have leading lines and a subject to focus on.
    2. How well did I edit my photos? In my opinion I’d say I did well like in between good and excellent.
    3. What would I do differently if I shot this assignment again? I would change the subject I’m framing since before I didn’t know how hard it was to frame a teddy bear and make it look good.
    4. Do you think your photographs belong on the blog home page and   should be considered one of the best from all the photo classes? Although I had made it on the class blog sometimes, I’d say these photos probably shouldn’t one of the best since they weren’t as good as I wanted them to be.

Back to the figurine, the Hatsune Miku figure represents my love for figure collecting (like funko pops), even if I run out of room on my shelf, and my love for Halloween. Going to the baseball glove, bat, and ball they show how I love baseball and how I had wanted to be on a team when I was little. The Oreo Mc flurry and the chili cheese fries represent my favorite foods as well as the Starbucks frap.

ALTERNATIVE CAMERA ANGLES

| perlaj41
I believe this is a successful photograph because of the interesting angle and the leading lines. The camera angle was taken from the ground to capture the high up trees. I chose this photo because of how interesting it looks, the way how the trees are towering above like it’s a painting is really attention-grabbing. Another reason I chose this photo is because of how the tree and sky look together. The trees almost look like shadows and the light blue sky helps with those effects.
