Back Lighting

      1. Which picture is the best shot of this assignment? Why

•     The best shot of this assignment is the first picture that I upload, because it had a great back lighting that makes it easy to edit.

      2.  Which picture is the weakest shot of this assignment?  Why?    

•        The weakest shot of this assignment are the middle body ones because they are hard to edit, and they didn't came out as I was planned.   

     3. How can the weakest image be improved on in future shoots?

•       The weakest image can be improved in the future shots by having only one main focus, manage to take the right picture.

     4. Did you use Photoshop, Lightroom, or both?  What tools in the programs did you use to edit the pictures? 

•       I used Photoshop. I used the adjustments in the picture, and inside it I use the levels tool to control the image color, I used curves to control the saturation in the background.

5. Explain how were you able to meet the objectives (GOALS) of the assignment?

•       I choose the best pictures, I did a good job on the background edition.

      6. What was easy about this assignment? Why?

•       The easy part of this assignment was the editing, because it was just to control the back lighting, which made it easy because all the pictures had their back lights.

       7. What was difficult about this assignment? Why?

•       The difficult about this assignment was taking the pictures and choose the best out of them, because I needed the ones that could have best lighting so when I edit it it would be the best.

       8. If you could do this assignment again, what would you do differently?

•       I would use different tools in the program, and I also would use the Lightroom program.

     9. On a scale of 1-10 (10 being your best effort) how would you rate your effort in this project?  Why would you give yourself that rating?

•       I would rate myself 9 because I did the best I could to reach my goals.

What type of Photography does Ansel master in?
  Ansel master, more on pictures of mountains landscape, and the nature.

How does he bring out the textures in his objects?
  He brings textures on his objects by adding dark background, and changing the texture colors.

What is your opinion on his work?'
  I don't like his work because he uses those dark colors on a picture that should be colorful especially when his focus are on those terms.

Why do you feel this way?
   I feel this way because in my opinion a picture of nature should have the same powerful color it has, it should bring creativity to the viewers not the feeling of sadness.

What do you think makes this photo part of Time Magazine's 100 Best Collection?

    This photo sadness, and the way it is expressed with his head down makes the viewer more interesting on that story, and wonder why he chose to jump taking his life away that tragic, that's why I think this photo is part of the Time Magazines 100 best collection.

Comp Reflection

                                          Reflection

1.  The best shot of this assignment was the pictures that I had saved on my phone, because they were perfectly taken.
2.  The weakest shot of this assignment was the pictures that I took in class, because I was in a rush to catch up with the class.
3.  The weakest image can be improved in the future shoots by taking the right picture, and use more programs in Photoshop to edit them.  
4.  I used Photoshop, I only used the basics programs the ones that are more easy to use, because I'm new to Photoshop, I need to time to practice.
5.  I could not be able to meet the objectives of this assignment because I was late to this class I did not have time to plan my goals because I'm still not done yet.
6.  The easiest part of this assignment was the shoe picture, because it was simple, to take the photo and to edit it.
7. The difficult part of this assignment was the editing part, because I never worked with Photoshop before, and I had no practice.
8. If I could do this assignment again I think I could do everything different because as I said I'm still not finished with the project yet.
9. I would gave my effort a scale of 8. I gave myself this rating because I worked hard on it starting late, but still I did a great job on it.
