Lighting is very important in photography, because without it you wouldn't really have a photo. If you don't have light in a room, can you even see anything? That's the same way photography is. Its very critical to have good lighting as well. For a photo to turn out very well, you need to know how much lighting to have and where. If your subjects back is to the sun, you're really only going to get a shadow more than a picture. But if you find the right time of day when there isn't too much light, or not enough. You're photo will turn out just right. DIFFUSED LIGHT The light scatters onto the subject from many directions AVAILABLE LIGHT A type of light that you cannot supply. You have to be able to work with it, without adjusting it. FRONT LIGHTING Lighting that comes from behind the camera towards the subject
This one probably had to be my favorite one to shoot, because we were able to see so many different patterns we could make using the light. It captured all of our movement and put it into one clear picture. It's so much cooler to see movement in dark light then it is to see it with a lot of light. However, they're both really fun. This one started to test my Photoshop and camera skills a little bit because you had an idea in your head, and then you had to figure out how to create it. I liked that I could take a light pattern and make my picture look like I was really doing it with my hand. Some people would look at this photo and never know if I Photoshoped it, or if I was really releasing sparks of light. You definitely wouldn't be able to do this out in natural light. This picture was a little bit harder in many different ways. It was hard to capture pictures that you could align evenly into one photo. It was also hard to blend them together without making one part look worse then the other. But even though those parts were difficult, it turned into a pretty cool picture. It looks like she was shaking her head really fast, but its just 3 pictures put together. However, you might be able to capture this kind of photo in natural light.
I would just like to give a shout out to my dad, because hes the coolest guy around. Also, his birthday is tomorrow so that's pretty cool and I'm excited for him. So ya, if you don't have him as a dad I feel bad for you.
Large Depth of Field Shallow Depth of field Fast Shutter Speed Slow Shutter Speed WHAT I LEARNED: While taking these photos of different shutter speeds, I learned how our camera captures movement. When you set your shutter speed to a fast time (1/1000) it captures the subject in that moment; leaving a clear, focused image. When you set your shutter speed at a slower time (3 sec.) It captures all of the movement in those three seconds; leaving a more blurred image, like the one above, making it look as if the photo was still moving. Not only did I learn about shutter speeds, I learned the kind of photos changing your aperture can make. When you have a large aperture (depth of field) everything in the photo is sharp. It captured everything in that lens, and the light that was being allowed in. However, having a small depth of field allows only one part to be in focus, while the rest is blurred out. I like these kind of photos. It's like capturing a macro shot. Only the part in focus is important in the image.
