Emotion

I took this photo to capture emotion. The emotion I attempted to capture depicted a sort of upset and pondering expression. I think I accomplished this photo quite well. This photo was taken in auto, with an f-stop 5.6, and the shutter speed was 1/60.

Landscape and Portrait Differences


This photo and the following photo share the same subject and background. However, this photo was taken in portrait mode with an f- stop of 5.0. The f-stop was high because the focus was on just the hand which is closer to the lense. You can clearly see the difference between this photo in portrait mode and the following photo. The hand in this photo came out more clear and the face is blurry although the depth of field is relatively small.

This photo was taken in landscape mode with and f-stop also of 5.0. Since this photo was taken in landscape mode, the foreground and background are both in mediocre focus. Also the lighting creates less of a focus on the hand as the photo taken in portrait.

This photo shows contrast by color. I set this photo up so that the black, dark shoes contrast with the bright, yellow flowers. This photo came out very successfully. The shutter speed in this photo was 1/30 and the f-stop was 5.6.

Facade Photos (Curtis High School)

This photo was taken with no flash with a shutter speed of 1/25. The focus of this picture was the two girls holding hands in the auditorium. This photo represents Curtis in a more emotional way because it shows the love and the unity between all the students here.

This photo was taken in Auto mode with a shutter speed of 1/320. The focus of this picture was the building itself. This represents Curtis in more of a physical manner and shows where you would be going to daily as a Curtis Warrior.
