Panoramic

I learned how to stitch together and edit 3 photos in Gimp, creating a panoramic photo. You should use a tripod, and overlap your photos for the best product. On Gimp, I used tools like the eraser, and clone, to touch up my photos so they looked like one big picture.

here is the finished product:

B&W

For this assignment I chose to take 50 or more pictures of Black and White. I tried to take pictures of things that had an interesting perspective for black and white, and had a good amount of light reflecting off of the pictures so that there was enough contrast between the two.

Assignment description: Some images lend themselves well to being portrayed in Black and White. Showcase your strongest B&W work here. How creative can you be?

My best picture was of a flower and I thought it looked good in black and white because it showed the beauty of the picture but was very simple so you don't get distracted.

iso: 80
aperture: f/2.8
shutter speed: 1/500 sec.


here is the slideshow of my 10 best pictures:

Animal Assignment

The second assignment I did was Animal.

I tried to capture the personalties and surroundings of the animals. 

I accomplished this by showing what they normally act like, and a little bit of their personality displayed in the picture. 

My best picture showed that the cat 

is curious, and it drew attention to his eye.

Assignment Description: Capture the activity or nature of the animal. 

My best picture: 

ISO: 400
F-Stop: f/2.8
Shutter Speed: 1/8 sec.

Macro Assignment

My first assignment that I am turning in is Macro. I tried my best to capture the tiny details when something is looked at closely. Some of my pictures include the raindrops on a flower petal, and the details on piano keys. 

Assignment description: Photography close up. Use the "Macro" settings on the camera and reveal details not often seen.


This is the picture I selected as my best:

ISO: 125,
Aperture: f/2.8,
Shutter Speed: 1/100 sec.
