This is one of my favorite summer photos because I like how the black and white make the image more complicated. The angle of the photo and the way the camera was tilted  is  interesting because it slightly off of the rule of thirds. I also like the way the color made the pool balls the same two colors. 

I like this photo because it shows the intensity and focus she has. I also liked the lesson about action photos which was fun.The angle makes it seem like she is going to shoo the ball at the camera. Plus the black and white makes the photo more serious even though it wasn't.

I like this photo because learned how to put myself and other things into different pictures with photoshop. I got to look like a zombie and put myself into the photo which I really liked. I had fun with this assingment even though it was pretty confusing.

 I choose these photos because they capture moments in the summer and moments of my lfe. They show good photo composition and they show some of the good times we had this summer. I choose the 1st one because track is a very big part of my life and it capture me in action. It has good lighting and leading lines. The second picture is of my best friend, it has a nice angel and leading lines.

The third photo shows of one the Upward Bound students in class, I think that this shows the work we do in Upward Bound. It hd good lighting, leading lines, and contrast. The fourth photo has a good angel and captures the seriousness of the person. The picture tells a story, has good contrast and is an overall good picture.
In this class I have learned how t take a good photo in a new way. Ive learned that using different angels and lighting can make the picture a lot better and I learned all the good photo composition rules.

This class has taught me how to enhance my photos. Instead of the old traditional duck faces we can now make our photos more creative and take them from different angles. I've learned how to use different lighting and take advantage of the different times of day. Most importantly I have learned to be fun and weird with my pictures it makes for better photo.

The very first photo is point of view. The tunnel affect is very cool and the swirled letters make the photo better. It's makes you real focus on the eye. The second photo is me in my dream vacation, in this photo I was able to utilize the masking tool in Photoshop. The third photo is the cropping tool. The cropping too is really used for when u take a picture of someone or something and there's a lot of unnecissary things in the background, so u just crop it out. It makes the photo look way better. The fourth photo is used with the masking tool also. We put ourself in a picture with zombies  and learned how to put the picture in words.

This class was really fun this summer, I really enjoyed this class.

     I find the lessons I have been taught in this class to be very useful. What we learned about in Photoshop allowed us to be more creative. You can alter you photos in many ways in this application. The zombie picture and the vacation picture are good representations of that creativity.  Learning the compositions of photography enabled us to take/edit our photos to their full potential. Knowing how to utilize light, and, and position and other things effected the quality of our pictures in a good way.
     The most important thing I learned in this class is to be original and to look for things that you might not typically think of as a good picture. If you know how to apply the photography compositions and keep your eye out for a good photo opportunity your photo will probably turn out how you want. I also learned that if you break the rules in the "right way" you could produce an unexpectedly good picture.

I choose these pictures because they show what Upward Bound is, how us as the students, how we represent this program. The bottom picture of me in the soccer goal was from our first post/blog. It was my first, "Follow Rule of Thirds, and Capture the Light."

The first picture is one of our mentors calling us to attention with the famous, " UB! Gather around... come in close." This pictures shows a set attraction with the group all facing Pharamond and the balance with the black and white with Nina and Rebecca. Finally, the second photo just show the photography class. This was at a point when everyone was having photographer block and we were just hanging out. Oh and my Ghost Rider picture was just for fun because now I can go anywhere in the world with the help of Photoshop.

This as definitely one of y favorite classes, just for the simple fact that I learned you don't always need a professional camera to take amazing pictures because smartphones are just a great. And with the right lighting, angle, and the perfect rule of thirds... You have the perfect pictures.

This summer I learned so many things in Digital Photography. Even through this was not my favorite class, I learned how to take better pictures. This was very helpful because now I know the tight way to take a selfie. I also learned how to maximize my phone camera which helped me with taking better pictures.
I also learned so much about Photoshop. During the school year I couldn't really get a grasp of Photoshop but, Mr.Winters broke it down and made it very understandable. I actually enjoyed this part because I got to combine different pictures and learn how to make them realistic looking. I especially enjoyed the zombie pictures. This class has thought me to keep an open mind because you can always finds something new to enjoy.

     These are my favorite photos  of SEI because these were all the fun events during the summer that I really enjoyed. This class has made me look at photos in a different way also how to view them in my  own way and make something amazing out of them other than just taking any photo. My first photo is one of my favorites because it shows how meaningful a photo can be just in black in white. my other photos are things that I see in my way as something different but also in the eyes of others.  My last two photos are events that we did in Upward Bound that I really had a fun time going to but when I took these photos I seen different things in each one and I tried to capture the moment in every one of these photos to give it some life.
