ISO







The picture on the top was taken with a flash and as you can see the lights on the background are hardly lit because of the strong light from the flash. The second picture was taken at ISO50 and it came out a little dark. The last picture was taken at ISO5000 and it came out the bast due to the high ISO.

Light Metering




In this assignment we were suppose to take a picture using metering. On the dark photo I first focused in on just the screen so it became my main point and it came of clear. Then on the other picture I first focused in on my partner then backed away and took the picture. By doing that, it made the first thing that i focused on the main point. This is important because If you need to take a good picture of anything or anyone then you want your main target to turn out good.

Personal Metaphor


I chose that specific metaphor because I was feeling hungry at the time. I am always hungry so it fit me perfect. Not only did I feel hungry at the time, I always have a big appetite. Kind of like a bear. Putting the bear there and the whole background made the picture seem more dramatic. The mood that I was trying to capture was that of a bear that doesn’t care about anything when they are hungry and will eat whatever.
I specifically placed things were I did because of the whole theme that I was trying to reveal. I don’t really have a strong focal area because I basically just try to make the environment seem as a place where you see something unique but at the same time get the point. My composition is balanced due to the way that I showed how big my appetite was. My image felt sort of unified because everything fit in almost well.
I really think that I did nothing well because of the way the whole picture looks. I know I could have done better. It was difficult adjusting the lighting on the picture and blending them all in. I did not like my picture and I would do it again.
