BDilbarian_snow

Make up post. I took this picture today in my driveway. I really like this picture because it shows alot of character. I like how the trees look like their angled in to the center of the photo. I like how the snow fall piles up un the tree branches and bends over. I also like the small specks of snow throughout the photo along with the bright white sky. The only thing i would of changed about this photo is the time i took it. If i had waited later in the day where there is alot more snow, it would have a more dramatic affect.

I am posting for 11/24. I took this picture off of Harvard square. The lighting at the time was pretty good. The picture is really clear. All the things in the picture are not too big so that it draws attention. Everything is in perfect lighting and most of the colors are in the picture is balanced.

I took this photo when I was near Times Square in New York in a morning (around 7 o'clock). I like this photo because the huge "M" really stood out to me, it's a really really big Mcdonald's near a train station, and I was going to meet my friend in Mcdonald's, so I took this photo. That day was raining so the sky was still dark, but the people walked quickly and the lights were on, so it made the photo look very urban. And I like the reflection on the ground.

This picture i took from the park at China during the christmas break. I like this picture a lot. I like the light reflction on the flower which make you can clear see the shadow. And the shot focus on the flower and the back get blurred.  I really like this picture..


BDilbarian_urban

I chose this picture for part of my urban street assignment. It is a picture of a vintage boom box  that i found in my dads old room at my grandparents house. I thought it was really cool so i took it home, and now i listen to the radio on it all the time. I set it on my floor and took the picture at an angle, which I really like. I like how you can feel the texture of the speaker and how the silver knobs reflect the light. The only thing i would change about the photo is the reflection on the tape holder and the bit of rug in the bottom right hand corner.

Saccone_Urban Street

I took this photo while working on my urban street project. This is a Candid shot of my friend while she was laughing at a photo we had just taken. I really like this because you can really feel the emotion of happiness within the photo. I also think that the black and white filter adds a great effect to the photo because her style is different from modern day clothing, so having a black and white photo with an alley blurred out in the back really makes the photo different.

Parker_Urban/street

I took this picture on in New York City on 14 street. The over exposed lights cause it to stand out and gives the entire picture a very crisp and clear look. None of the objects in the picture are taking much space and drawing attention. It also has a sense of being in a busy street.

Warr_Nature

I took this picture of my street in my neighborhood on a sunny day over summer. I really like all the different shades of green and yellow. I also like the way the street looks and the way it is in the center. But, I wish the top right corner wasn't so exposed.

james_street/urban

I took this photo over mid-year break. I chose this as my Street/Urban photo. I really like the "dead"feeling in the photo. It looks like something from a war zone. I think the writing on the bench and the fence really stands out. I think the green in the background really blocks out the buildings, so the main focus is the photo. Something that could be changed, the top right of the photo. The fence is not covering the trees.

This photo was taken in the same place my photo last week was taken.  I took this one at a different angle though, and desaturated all the color.  I think it looks better desaturated because the contrast between the black and the white is more evident.  I took this in the woods behind my house with natural light and no flash.  

Alex_Nature

I chose this one out of my 5 other nature photos because I think this was one of the more interesting photos I took for the nature assignment project. I took this photo in the afternoon on a partial cloudy day, when the sun was still up. I took this photo on Christmas Day in Florida at around 4pm (post meridiem time). I like the setting to this photo with the ocean in the background because it makes this photo appear with good contrast, and depth to this photo. I also like this photo because of the variety of blue around this photo. I also like how the palm trees are in complete focus and the ocean is in good focus. With the clouds overlooking the water creates a nicer tone for this photo, it makes the photo look more artistic. I wish this photo was framed better, so the palm trees would be centered, and I wish the sailboat was not visible in this photo frame because it distracts the value of nature in this photo. I took this photo with natural lighting, without flash, using auto focus, auto white balance, macro, and with auto ISO setting.

Dowding_nature


I took this picture a couple of weeks ago during one of the snow storms. I really like this picture because i love how the snow is in between  the tree bark and it adds a very soft touch to the picture. I also like how the bark is shaped and how  it gives it a lot of texture. 

Sara_ Pine needles

I took this picture on a sunny day a couple weeks ago.  I like the colors and the contrast between the tree bark, the blue sky and the green pine needles.  I also like the highlight on the needles.  I like the depth of field and how the pine needles draw you eyes to the center of the photo.  

Bubello_Nature

I took this photo with my camera, without flash and using the macro setting. I really liked this photo of this palm tree because of the depth of field. I like how only part of the tree is in focus and the rest of the tree is generally out of focus. I also liked how bright blue the sky was. The sky was very clear that day, which made for a really great photo.

Burnham_Nature

I took this photo when I was walking my dog for the nature project.  I really like the way that the sun is shinning behind the leaves.   I also really like how the leaves in the from tare more focused than the leaves in the back.

Khan_Nature

I took this photo while I was away in Pakistan. I climbed on top of a hill to take a picture of the mountain. I like the color contrast, the greens and the blues go very nicely together. I also like the fact that the background is a little blurred out.

Teddy_Nature

I took this photo when I was in Florida during Christmas vacation when I was on the beach. I thought this was one of the best nature photos that I have taken before. It was in the afternoon and the sun was behind the clouds so not sunlight was reflecting on the sand because it was about to start raining that day. I like it how in the top and bottom areas of the photo the background is all blurred and out focus it makes the center area of the photo much more interesting look. With it being out of focus in those spots it really makes the center area bring all the details of the sand to life which really makes it an interesting nature photo.
