Photo #1

 

Objective 3: Composition Techniques – Use the guide on the website

 

1.Rule of Thirds: Trees are in rule of thirds; not in the middle, just off to the side and beneath

 

2.Perspective and depth: perspective in the clouds and trees

 

3.Fill the Frame:

 

4.Backgrounds: clouds and sky

Objective 4: Lighting (side, back, soft, hard, fill)

Types of lighting and how they contribute to the image:

 

Back lighting- makes a silhouette (makes the trees black and the sky is still in color)

 

Objective 5: Post Production (resize, contrast, sharpening, and others you have done)

Corrections/adjustments made:

 

I edited the photo by bringing up the light and darkening the trees to make the sky brighter

 

Objective 6: Critique

Analyze your photograph for strengths and areas for improvement (consider composition, lighting, exposure, overall feel, etc.)

 

Strength: The way I positioned the camera to not capture any of the buildings or anything that would take your eye away from the sky

 

Area for growth: Where is a white blur (bottom right), I could capture the photo with any blurriness and focus on the sky and trees
