Today, I decided to play with my own camera of the ESO Canon. I thought that I have learned manual setting on my mentor’s Leica camera. So I wanted to try with my own camera, since it came with manual settings. First, I tried set different ISO, aperture, and shutter-speed numbers. I have to be honest that it wasn’t easy, because I couldn’t tell if is too dark or too bright. I just had to do my best to guess the ISO and shutter speed. With my first try, the first picture was too dark, so I turn…

Can you believe every photo you see? In “The Photo is Lying to You” by Rob Haggart was written about photographers that were taken by a photographer and photo shopped. The saying “one picture is worth a thousand words” Implies that pictures describing many things without reading or hearing about it. In the reading Haggart introduces a photographer name Ed Freeman who was working on a novel about surfing at the time when he took a picture of surfers he saw in Hawaii and photo shopped the picture…

Like many people across the world, I am a visual person. When I flip through the pages of a newspaper or magazine, the very first thing I notice on the pages are the pictures. From there, my eyes wander to the caption, the title of the article, and finally the article itself. While reading the passage, I go back and forth between the text and the picture or pictures that go with it. I try to imagine myself being a part of the whole, standing somewhere in the background where I will most likely…

considered: a wide variety of possessions and effects a person can show, create or capture. So, when it comes to photography, it shouldn 't be questionable if the photos themselves are art or not. They should be, because of the fact that through an image, painting or photo, the artist is able to capture an emotion and allow the viewers to see and feel the emotions they wanted to express. To begin this argument, the fact that most people know more famous pictures are known around the world…

cannot create nor destroy the images people see; mirrors are merely instruments for, what is most often, vanity. However in art, mirrors are used to exhibit much more than just a reflection: as is the case in both Un bar aux Folies Bergère by Éduoard Manet and Picture for Women by Jeff Wall . The mirrors used in both of these works of art mediate the scenes and the characters within them, revealing much more than just a reflection. The mirror takes a seemingly simple image and creates a much…

An image alone has the ability to be worth a thousand words, but paired together with poetry, it expresses much more. Emily Dickinson, an American poet, created true works of art that often had ambiguous meaning. Dickinson’s poetry continuously constructed dominant images that, needless to say, didn’t need illustrations. Emily Dickinson’s Civil War poems specifically, contain descriptions of graphic images that also fit well with the photo taken by American Photographer, Timothy H. O’Sullivan.…

Photographers who photograph landscapes must also often “wait for the right light to capture that perfect moment” (shawacademy.com). If the lighting is too bright and harsh, the image can appear washed out, overexposed, and dull and lifeless in color. If the lighting is softer, as often found during the “golden hour,” most colors have more contrast and appear vibrant and alive. The “golden hour” occurs just after sunset or sunrise, when the colors in the sky appear redder and the sun’s lighting…

Visual research” When we worked on photography history Garry Winogrand was one of the photographers that inspired me with my “Street People” assignment. My work is nothing like his but the free expression that I found in his work even though underneath some of his work you can see the different expressins in people this made me relise that you can express anything within a photo. Simon Garnier said: “I was too timid to get close to strangers to get intimate with them and tell their…

Tiashara Armstrong Mr. Davies Comp 101 Having Difference Some photos can be misinterpreted and not understanding. The photos themselves are representations of how people see them. Representation is the description or portrayal of something in a certain way. Certain representations, or misrepresentations, get widely circulated by what we call the dominant discourse. Everyone has used representation to explain how things are in life to them. In the “States” essay, written…

Words. Photography is the ability to freeze time without disturbing life. What is meant by that phrase is that when a photo is taken, that precise moment is forever captured to be revisited at the viewer’s leisure. When a photographer takes an image it is very different than when a friend tells you, “ Lets take a selfie!” Although, both a photographer and one capture that moment in time, a photographer tries to tell a story or a message as to look who I’m with; which with in itself is…
