Photo4 Light painting

Assignment Description: For this assignment I chose to do light painting. In this assignment I had to take an object and set it in a very dark room put my shutter speed to about ten seconds and widen my aperture. As I took the picture I took my light and maneuvered it so that the camera would capture the color along with the object.

Portrait Demo

  Assignment Description: For this assignment we had to take portrait photos. One of the photos had to be done in front of a backdrop with multiple lights. The second photo had to be taken beside a window with the sun shining through it and someone had to stand beside the subject with a reflection board to light up the other side  of the subject. Then we framed them in GIMP.


  What I learned in this assignment was how light effected the photo and how it crated and took away shadows from the subject to make it a better picture. I also learned how to make a great frame in GIMP.
