                                                                                        Panning: f/22.0, 1/30, ISO100



Chronos: f/10.0, 1/2000, ISO 1600



From this assignment, I learned that we can capture motion and even light in very interesting ways. Using those ways, we can show a different perspective or meaning in our shots.  I made my shots using mostly using bikes to create motion. For some shots, I chose a busy background, but for others I kept it simple. I liked my light writing piece because I liked the creative idea of having lit footsteps walking down the sidewalk. I also liked my zooming shot because the busy background added some color to the zoom. My best piece was my chrono piece because I liked how I made the yellow pop in a black and white image.  My blurred could have been better, maybe a change in background could have enhanced it. Overall, this unit has bettered my photography skills because it has given me more tools to take more creative shots.

Final Shots Proposal for Motion

Blurred: I am thinking of getting a shot of some one moving pretty fast down the street in my neighborhood, so maybe on a bike or skateboard.

Panning: It will basically be the same thing as blurred, but the subject will be in focus rather than the background. The subject could change and maybe we will use a different type of transportation for the needed speed.

Frozen: I want to take a photo of the subject doing a move such as a cartwheel and get them in the middle of it when they're mostly in the air, getting the subject and background in focus.

Zoom: I want to get a busy background like trees in the woods and my subject standing in the middle maybe with a prop or something.

Lightwriting: I was thinking of putting some shoes on a sidewalk and putting light around them to kind of make it look like glowing steps on a sidewalk walking.

Gita Mukundan is a very important person in my life because she always brings a light-hearted and fun mood to the occasion. She can always make you laugh no matter what mood you're in. Because of her personality, I chose to make her smile or do silly poses to bring out her fun-loving aspects and added some random props to make it more crazy. I wanted to create a happy mood so I used a lot of natural light. This unit has affected my photography by increasing the realism in my shots. Using the knowledge I now have about lighting, I can identify and control overexposure in some of my shots. Overall, this unit taught me how to create more professional shots.
