Photo Composition Description

1. The man that got killed by a subway was pushed my a random person and the photographer rushed and pulled out his camera just to take that picture.

2. The photographer said that he took the picture to worn the subway driver to stop with the flash on his camera.

3. Honestly, I don't think he should've because you just took a photo over saving someones life.

4. No, he didn't do the best thing he could have done in that situation because I would rather save someones life then to take a picture of someone dying.

5. I really don't believe they should of put that picture of someone about to die on the head of the New York Times, this i just foul and cruel.

6. The most important thing is to prevent people from getting hurt and to stop bad things from happening.

7. I think it is ethically acceptable because it is your right to do whatever fells right and the photographer should be getting into the things they are recording/documenting.

8. No, they shouldn't avoid them because they are now a part of something that is involved with their job/duties.

9. What stands out to me the most is the sides that those photographers were taking by saying he isn't the only one that could've helped.

Portrait Photography Preview

1. The environment where the portrait is taken is an important consideration on portrait photography because it can greatly influence the final picture and determine what are you focusing on the most.
2. Portrait photographers should be using "Aperture Priority" mode or full manual because it makes the picture have excellent exposure and visual effect.
3. Portraits reveal a subjects character by making the photo more effective and make their message more communicated.
4. The photographer can help the subject while taking portraits by telling them what is the right attitude they want that picture to come off to.

Aperture and Shutter Speed Practice

Set 1 and Set 2:
f/4- 1/125 really blurry
f/5.6- 1/60 kind of blurry
f/8- 1/60 dark and blurry
f/11- 1/60 darker, kind of blurry, visible
f/16- 1/30 kind of sharp, visible
f/22- 1/8 bright and clear, visible
Set 3:
1. The slower the shutter speed, the blurrier the picture.
2. Change the shutter speed higher so it would be clear.
3. The best one would be a aperture of f/22 and a shutter of 1/8

Aperture, Shutter Speed and ISO

Aperture
1. The eyes
2. The smaller the Aperture, the bigger the opening in the lens is and the larger the Aperture, the smaller the opening in the lens is.
3. The aperture impacts the Depth of Fields by the sharpness of the photo.
4. f/4.5.f/5,f/5.6,f/6.3,f/7.1,f/8,f/9,f/10,f/11,f/13,f/14,f/16,f/18,f/20,f/22,f/25,f/29
5. Highest- f/29 and Lowest- f/4.5

Shutter Speed
1. Beginning       End
a-Fast              a-Slow
b-Medium       b-Med
c-Fast              c-Slow
d-Medium       d-Fast
e-Medium        e-Fast
f-Fast               f-Slow
2. Aperture, Aperture Priority, Manual
3.1/4,1/5,1/6,1/8,1/10,1/13,1/15,1/20,1/25,1/30,1/40,1/50,1/60,1/80,1/100,1/125,1/160,1/200,1/250,1/320,1/400,1/500,1/640,1/800,1/1000,1/1250, 1/1600,1/2000,1/2500,1/3200,1/4000
                 High Shutter                                        Low Shutter                   


ISO
1. It makes the pictures more vintage and vivid.
2. When there is plenty of light use a low ISO.
3. When there is not enough light, it is best to use a high ISO.
4. Auto, 100, 200. 400, 800, 1600, 3200, 6400

Academic Photo Shoot

Avoiding Mergers
There is nothing to really focus on in this photo because it is a picture of everything at once.

Rule of Thirds
The person is on the right and center and focuses on his work.

Balance
This is balance because it is even for two people at the bottom and one person at the top.
