Photography Final Reflection

Since September, I have learned a lot about photography. I used to just take photos in bulk and hoped one would come out, but now I can confidently take them in small quantities. I have learned about techniques like the rule of thirds and how to look for appropriate exposure and contrast. I had a lot of time to practice using Photoshop and a program that was new for me, Adobe Lightroom. Using this program I learned about editing simple photos to bring out the best in them, and sometimes changing them completely. I learned how to adapt what I learned in to different forms and media by making a magazine and even a video, and was able to learn new things as a result. By the end of the year I was very confident in my work and felt comfortable sharing my abstract ideas without the fear of judgement. All in all, I’m very glad that I took this class as it has taught me not only about taking photos, but about a means to express myself and that it’s not always bad to do so.

Project #7 - Multiple Image Techniques

    Project Seven      This project showcases three different techniques that I have learned in class, sourced for outside of school, and edited back in class.      The first technique is multiple exposure. Multiple exposure is the layering of dissimilar images in hopes of making one image that is lit evenly across the entire digital canvas. Generally they are done using photos that are different but still similar in lighting and theme so that they can show different angles, but still hold a sense of commonality. In my case, I used images that were very similar and merged them in a way that didn't allow for anything that wasn't overlapped, much like and HDR.      The second technique is a panorama. A panorama is a picture designed to extend further than common aspect ratios- horizontally or vertically. In my case, both panoramas that will be shown have been created by me, after the original photos have been taken.   ...
