Bubello_House

I took this photo in my house without flash and using the macro setting. I liked this photo because of the depth of field. You can clearly see the first tree, but most of the picture is faded. I also liked this photo because of the way the light hits the side of the house and reflects off of the sparkles. I chose to enhance the photo to make the details easier to see.

Somto _ car



I took this photo at a wedding of my dad's friend and loved the cars there, especially this one because it was the first time i have ever seen a car this long. The background was suitable and simple. The place was a large place and open so i took it at this angle which kind of bending but a little bit straight.

Lanefski_Tomato

I took this with a Canon Rebel xS in natural light with ISO 100. I really like the detail in the tomato, the stalk that is holding it up, and the leaves. I think the colors complement each other and that the red really stands out.  I really don't like the distracting background!

Fair_Animals

I like this photo because of the way the animals are arranged and the texture the window adds. I like how the front animals are more in focus than the ones in the back. And I like how the horse is tipped over because it mixes up the height of the animals and allows the giraffe and zebra to be visible.  I took this photo in the Bio Lab during class. I used a Sony bloggie camera on portrait setting and no flash was used.

Palencia_Mary

I took this photograph during class time this week.  I took it on the back steps. I like this picture because of the angle and how the frames are in the picture but not distracting. Also it is not how one normally looks at this statue of Mary.  If I could change anything I would change the white spot that is comming from the door.

Dilbarian_ flowers

         i took this picture in my room with the available light sources.  i really like this picture because of the focus and the extremely short depth of field.  i also like how the colors contrast with the white background.  if i could retake this photo, i would make sure there was no dust in the photo.

Riechart_Flower

This picture was taken outside with natural light.  I like how the pink flower stands out from the green background and how it's not in the center.  I also like how you can see some of the details in the leaves like the veins and the jagged edges. 

Condon_Ornament

 
This is a picture from the Marian by Letters class assignment. I used it to represent O, as in ornament. I was in the auditorium with Mr. Flynn's props for Holiday Pops when I saw this. I thought the gold and red colors looked realy nice together. I put it at this angle because I like the focus of the gold hook and string.

McGrath_Door

I took this picture for the Marian by the letters project. I liked that the door was half open when I took the picture. I also liked that the kids walking through the hall were visable through the door. I used the available light in the room and didn't use flash.

Bubello_TennsBall

I took this photo in my back yard yesterday without flash and using the macro setting. I liked this photo because of the details that you can see of the snowflakes on the tennis ball. I also liked it because of the depth of field that causes my dog to appear slightly faded.

Flavia_IpodNano

I took a photo of  my ipod nano. I really like how there is a white background and how the color of the ipod really stands out. I also really like how there is a shadow right below the ipod.

Lanefski_Rock Climber

I took this photograph of my best friend when we went rock climbing last month. I took this with a Canon Rebel xs with no flash. I like how the light is hitting one side of her, but I do not like how the other side is too dark. I also do not like how the rope is in front of her hand. 

Bache_Elizabeth in Set Design


I took both of these images during photography class on Friday. Both were taken on the vibrant color setting, the first image was taken at an ISO speed of 800, the second at 640. I think the top image is a better image for a photography image, because of the variety in color and minimal distraction. However, I like the second image better as a portrait image because of its focus and the angle of Liz's face. Also how her face is outlined by the background lighting. However, the distractions take away from this portrait image, including the two lights at the top, Vals hand behind Liz, and the fact that you cant see Liz's paintbrush. If these distractions weren't included the second image may be a better photography image.

Fair_Charm

I took this photo in room 44 near the window sill.  It was taken during photography class and there was a lot of light coming in from the outside. I used a Sony Bloggie camera  I like this photo becasuse of the way the L charm is in focus. I also like how everything in the photo is a different shade of grey.

Cha_Franklin Olin

Nowadays, I'm trying to take good pictures at night since at night, you will know that the distracting objects are disappear by darkness, and  the picture can focus on the only object i want to take (especially the object with lights itself). Sometimes, compare to the picture took in the morning, the pictures took at night have more romantic aura. This is the picture I took in Franklin Olin & Babson College. As you can see, there is my friend stands in front of the object. You will notice, the distance between him and the building is quite far, and the distance between him and camera either. Because of the delicate lights (yellowish streetlights), the mood in this picture is warm even though it is cold outside. In addition, we can see my friends properly. Since this is the picture that taken without light, the shutter speed should be delayed and I need a place to put my camera so that the camera will not shake while the camera take this picture.

Brossi_Swing

I took this photo Sunday morning at around 8:30. It was sunny out but the porch was shaded, causing the shadows behind the swing.  I used natural light.  I like how there are so many different lines in this photo and how some are vertical and some are horizontal, giving it a more interesting look. I wish the swing wasn't in the dark as much as it is, but this photo without the flash came out better than the one when I used flash.

Duchaney_Christmas Shoes

 

 
I photographed my formal shoes and their matching purses with my Canon PowerShot SX110IS on indoor setting using only available light from the lamps in my family room and the white Christmas lights on the tree. I put them under the Christmas tree because the red tree skirt provided a good color for a background. I liked how the more neutral colors contrasted with the more vibrant red. I also included some of the branches to incorporate a Christmas theme, as I figured someone trying to sell the shoes and purses at this time of year would. I like how the metalic silver and gold matches the Christmas theme. The edited version crops out most of the wall at the top left corner and makes the colors warmer, as I intended the light to appear.

Garner_Exploding Glitter


I took this photograph for the ABC By The Letters Project. It is glitter dumped out on a sheet of canvas with my fingers run through it. I rested my camera on the glitter and focused on the middle ground of the picture. I used my canon rebel on the close up setting. I used a desk lamp angled in the direction of the glitter to cast light on it. This photograph is one of my favorites I have taken this year because of the used of depth.

Palencia_Flower

I used this photograph for my marian by the letter project. For thanksgiving my mom decorated the house with a few of these. I really like this picture because the vase and flower is well focused and the sun allows the little hairs on the flower to show up. I also like that you can see part of the flower in the water but the top half outside.  If I would've noticed earlier I would have cleaned the vase because some the hand print are a bit distracting.

Cha_Riverside


This is the picture that I took at Riverside station. To take the picture without flash, I have to hold the camera at least more than 3 secs to gather the light since it was night which lacks light. Because I could not hold the heavy camera for more than 3 secs without any move, I placed the camera on the stairways and pushed the shutter button (aperture: F22). I like the picture because without any flashing light, the picture has quite clear brightness, and I like the light trace of cars. Luckily, there is no blurring; but I don't like the shape of branches of streetlights, which were supposed to be one exact line for each branch of light. Furthermore, there are the ghost effect (the red and white dots) which distract attention.

Dilbarian_ White Rose


I really like this picture because of how focused it is and because of the depth of feild.  if i could take this picture again, i would eliminate the negative space.

Flavia_Silouhette

I took this photo at a window in Marian Hight School. Karen is the model in the photo. I really like this picture because it it a silouhette type of photo. Some thing that I would do to fix would be to clean the window because it is a little bit smudgy. Also part of Karen's leg and arm is not a silouhette because you can see some details and color. 

Lanefski_PinkFlower

I took this photograph with a Canon Rebel xS. I took this in natural light with the Close up setting, ISO 100. I like this photograph because it shows the detail on the flower and the surrounding flowers complement the pink color.
