Khan_Shapes

I took this photo for my shapes assignment. I like it because there is one shape that is focused on (the rectangle in the middle) and then there are several shapes surrounding it. Even though the colors are dull, they still make the picture look unique. 

Warr_Leaves

This is the photo I chose for my first blog entry. This photo is of leaves on a tree behind the school, near the convent. It was a bright, sunny day. I like this photo because of the blurred back ground and the strong blue and green tones. I edited the picture to bring out these colors even more. 

Bubello_Shapes

I took this photo with my camera, without flash, and using the macro setting. I took this photo for my shapes project. I really liked this photo because of the depth of feild. The middle of the photograph is much more in focus than the rest of the photo. I also really liked the contrast between the colors that really allows the reds to pop. I chose to flip thos photo upside down because I thought it would make for an overall more intersting photo.

Jordina Shapes

This is my photo of shapes. I took this shoot in my friend's house last week. I really like this photo for the contrast of gold and blue of the background, because this blue is fine and polished and gold is powerful and strong. Also I like the different tones of the color gold and all the shapes that are in the shoot; the circle of the mirror and the little circles around it and also all the parallel lines of the sunbeams.
I would like that there wasn't any reflections in the mirror because that attracts your attention over there.

Hi This is my uploaded pic.

I picked this picture because it looks likes a face within a picture and I like pictures that have can be seen differently, based on the viewers' perspective.

Dilbarian_ circles

I took this photo in class one day outside the front door of the school.  It is the mat on the ground.  I like how the rain on the rubber reflects the light but I wish that it wasn't so overexposed.  I also like how many circles there are and how they come together in the back of the photo.  I like how it is hard to tell what it is at first and how the movement carries you throughout the photo.  Lastly, i wish that there wasn't a speck of something in the middle of the circles and it wasn't so overexposed

I like how in thes pictures the main focus is on the flowers and the rest of the photo is blury and I like the color contrast in it.

Duchaney_Blue Flowers

I took this with my Canon Powershot SX110IS outside during class. I really like how the clear crisp focus of the front flowers in contrast to the gradually blurrier ones behind them show interesting depth. I also think the composition of the four flowers is interesting because the three around the edge sort of frame the main subject, which is itself at one of the thirds positions. However, I wish the entire background was green leaves and stems, because I think they are a much prettier color tha the dark, shadowy branches of the bush in the background.

mcgrath_soccerball

I took this picture in the woods near my house for the extraordinarily ordinary project. I liked the way the warm colors of leaves, trees, and rocks contrasted with the bright green soccer ball. I also liked the clear focus of the photo. The stick coming from the side is slightly distracting, but was impossible to move because it was attached to a large bush.

Fair_Coliseum

This was my favorite photo I took of the Coliseum because it is not a traditional photo of the whole structure. I like that the foreground is in focus and the details in the stone are clear. I like that the background is blurry and it appears to be very far away.

Tomlinson_Mom

I took this picture during the winter when I was in Philly. I really like how the colors compliment eachother in this photo

Cha_Brookyln Bridge

This is another photo that I took while I was having New Your City tour. This is the picture of Brookyln Bridge. Some might say this picture is little bit dark and need more exposure. However, what I think is because the picture is little bit darker, it gives gloomy look of the bridge and special mood. Furthermore, some might say the car on the bottom picture is distracting but I think the car makes another view of the picture because it gives the look that "I am going to cross the bridge soon."

mcgrath_makeup

I took this picture at the color project at the very beginning of the year. I came across this photo when I was looking for portfolio pictures over the weekend. I like the crisp focus of the picture and I like that the surface is not completely white (it is more of a cream), because the off white compliments the colors of the makeup. I wish the lightening wasn't so severe though.

Cha_Statue of Liberty

This is the photo that I took while I was having little trip in New York City with my parents. I like this photo because each color in this photo appears very clear that it gives crispy look. Furthermore, I believe the focus on this picture is very accurate and exposure is appropriate. In addition, I like the American flag behind the Statue of Liberty.

Condon_Megan

This is a portrait I took of my friend Megan a few weeks ago for one of our assignments. I really love the photo because it was really nice lighting and I overall just love how she looks. She is smiling but facing away from the camera, which makes the photo more interesting. Also, what she is wearing matches well with the background. I think I used natural lighting for the photo too. I really love this portrait. (Click to see entire photo.)

Fair_Trees

I like how this photo has many different levels and how the shadows of the trees are very defined. I also like how the sun highlights some of the green plants. Overall, I think this photo has a peaceful feel. (Click to see entire photo.)

Dilbarian_ Portrait

I took this picture of my friend on a sunny afternoon.  I like this picture because you wouldn't normally take a portrait of a person lying down but i like how it is different.  I like how natural and relaxed she looks.  I also like how the green grass contrasts with her skin and clothes.  Lastly I like how the portrait isnt focused on her face but her whole body in nature.

Dilbarian_ American Flags

I took this picture in the early morning in the shade without flash.  I took this picture when I was helping my replace the old american flags with new ones on the graves at a cemetery.  I like this photo because of the bright colors in the flags and the neutral colors in the gravel in the background.  I also like the different texture in the photo from the ground, the flag blowing in the wind and the rolled up flags.

Lights_Namubiru

I took this photograph of my locker chandelier in my kitchen with the background being the hanging lights on the ceiling. The first photo is the original one, and the second one was cropped to take my finger out and made into a black and white photograph. I like the colors better i the second photo because of the sharp contrasts of the blacks, whites, and grays. I also really like how at the top of it, there's a grayish glow.

Brossi_Frog

I took this photo of a frog that I found on my back porch. There was not much sun this day, so the colors look very dull which is something I wish I could change about this photo. I also wish the frog was sitting on something other than gray because it makes his body somewhat blend into the tarp he's sitting on and takes away from the texture on his skin also.

Somto__Peacock.

I took this photo in Franklin park zoo in Boston. I didnt use flash. I am using this picture as one of my nature picture. I love how she is look the other way and not straight at the camera. I also love the flowers around her, it adds the nature to the picture.

Duchaney_Tatiana Softball Portrait

I took this with my Canon Powershot SX110IS at the softball senior night game. I think the composition of this photo is very clean with the distinct lines dividing the dirt from the grass and her body is symmetrical except the asymmetrical positioning of her arms, which instead adds interest. I like how the contrast between the clear weeds in front of her and the more indistinct weeds behind her add depth. I also like how, even though the photo was taken in diret sunlight, there are no harsh shadows on her face. One thing that I would change would be to move her down a little bit so her head is not sitting right on the line between the grass and the dirt.

Bubello_Flower

I took this photo in my backyard without flash and using the macro setting. I really liked how the red mulch really allowed the yellows In the flowers to pop. I also love how clear the water droplets are on the flower. The light yellow color of the flower is also, in my opinion, very nice too.
