Final Exam

I believe that this photo is my transformative picture, because it helped me understand my vision as a photographer. Before this, I had never truly enjoyed taking pictures of people or nature. With this picture I realized that my forte was taking picture of still objects. I also realized that I enjoy playing with the lighting of pictures. Originally this picture was extremely bright, even in the background, but I changed it to give it a different effect. I think this picture also had an impact, as it was the first one I truly, genuinely liked.

The difference between shape and form is that while shape captures an objects 2-D lines, form captures a 3-D point of view.

The difference between pattern and repetition is that while pattern is the repeating of a set of symbols or objects, repetition is the repeating of only one symbol or object.

Movement is when looking at a work of art, one's eyes move from one object to another. Their is movement in this picture because one's eyes move from stair railing, to the bright corner on the upper left, to the pine cone.

Of the last three projects, my best work was done in the presentation project in which I took pictures of candles. I believe this is my best work because as mentioned before, I believe my forte is taking pictures of a certain still object, or group of still objects. On top of that, I enjoy using camera raw to play around with the lighting of pictures, and with candles as my object, there was a lot that I could do with it. This project changed me because it was the first project where I was working completely independently, and I had a focus which meant a lot to me. For the first time I felt like I was in sole control of my work. On top of that the contrast between the light and dark truly connected with me, as I really like playing with different light schemes. This project taught me to see things differently because I had no restriction on what I could and could not do, and I was able to do exactly what I desired. Though this caused me to falter in some places, it gave me a higher sense of independence and responsibility.

weebly reviews

1st period:
I reviewed Nitya's weebly and her best picture is the one with a polar bear, because the contrast between the black and white sheet and the stuffed animal makes it stand out.

2nd period:
I reviewed Priyanka's weebly and her best picture is the black and white star with the red crayon, because the contract makes it stand out.

3rd period:
I reviewed Anita's weebly and her best picture is the one with the pistachios, because the color is very earthy.

4th period:
I reviewed Tulika's weebly and her best picture is the black and white picture with Neha as the model and one hand on her head, because you can see the light bounce off of her.
