This photo taken at the green lake meet requirements 1 and 4. I focused on the flower and make the background blur when the lights come in it becomes little circle in the background. This was shot with a Sony 24-70mm f/4.0.

This photo was taken at Seattle Public Library and it fulfills requirement 5: Interior Panorama. When shooting this photo, I was standing at the center of the 3rd floor and shoot a sequence of photos to capture the entire room by shifting and rotating my camera.

I used aperture priority mode and set my aperture to ƒ/10.0 because I wanted everything in focus. In terms of processing, I combined this group of photos into a single panorama through Lightroom and slightly decreased its highlight and increased shadow.

Requirement 4: Show the action with a burst

The most fun part of the assignment. I've always liked those kind of photos, but never tried them. I set up my camera in aperture priority mode with setting aperture to f/6.3 to blur the background and make an accent on a flying bird. I used low ISO of 125 since there was enough light that day. I also used continuous high burst mode shooting to show the movement of the bird.

In post production, I merged images together using layers and masks. I didn't show the movement of the bird sitting on the nest since it was only flapping wings.

This photo satisfy requirement 2. I wanted the background to be focused while the cars driving to be motion-blurred, so I changed to an aperture of f/22.0 and processed the image afterwards to have +0.29 contrast and -1.14 exposure.

I took this photo on campus and I feel like it fulfills requirement 2: no vertical vanishing point and requirement 4: repeating patterns. I really like how the beams on the rooftop is symmetrical to its reflections and the repeating patterns on both the roof and the floor.

I used aperture priority mode and set my aperture to ƒ/4.0. When processing this photo in Lightroom, I increased its shadow and contrast, and slightly adjusted its tone curve.

This photo satisfies the requirement 4. The top half is lighted by flash which is key light and the bottom half is illuminated by the ambient light (fill light). I used a tissue and my phone to soft and reflect the on-camera flash to the upper wall to create an interesting effect where the face gets overexposed and body gets the right exposure. I took the photo in the manual mode since I would let to know the effect of the flash on the settings. Thus, I tried different exposure combination and eventually get the result I like.

This is a public domain (in the USA) photo, not a photo I took.

The institution I got this from does request appropriate credit - if you want to reuse this, see the State Archives of Florida requirements below - to my mind, the following two paragraphs meet and exceed the credit requirement:

This photo satisfies requirement 2. For the rest of my photos, I created a pendulum using my volleyball and some string. For this photo in particular, I swung the ball vertically away from me and took the picture as the ball was coming towards me. I used a quick shutter speed to motion blur the subject, and used a large f-stop to keep the background in relative focus. I also cropped the photo to focus on the subject and remove extra objects from the background.

This photo satisfies the second half of requirement 2. Here, I raised the green saturation, and lowered the temperature to make the leaves pop. I also removed a few leaves to give a greater access to the blues of the sky. This hopefully makes for a cleaner image.

This photo satisfies requirement 5, non-photorealistic photograph. This photo is taken combining two photos, one with an empty tennis court and another with my girlfriend lying down on a stool.

I took this photo with in aperture priority with an aperture of f/2.8 to reduce details in the background and emphasize the subject in the foreground of the photo. My focal length was set to 18.0mm, the widest my lens can go to capture a lot of the sky and surroundings. ISO was set to 200 and shutter speed was set to 1/5800 seconds automatically by the camera.

To post process the photos I brought them into photoshop and did a lot of edits with layer masks to make the subject float higher than she was with the stool. I created a new shadow with an ellipse with reduced opacity and a feathered edge. Then I brought the edited image into photoshop and increased exposure, contrast, vibrance, and saturation. Then I added some vignetting and some radial filters to make the ground below the subject and a conical shape around the subject have higher exposure.

This photo meets the conditions for requirement 5. I used my Nikon D90 with a Nikkon AF NIKKOR lens. I took this photo at my house. I used a 1/200 shutter speed and an f/18.0 aperture. I used a small aperture, because I wanted everything to be in focus. I used a faster shutter speed than the other photos, because it was outside. I did an hdr on lightroom classic and increased the saturation and temperature. Originally I wanted to get a photo of her shaking her own hand, but I like the ghost-like image that turned out. I think it’s cool how the image of her on the right turned out like a drawing on the house.

This photo fulfills requirement 5 because of its use of color to make the subject pop. It was taken of a preserved crocodile head with a balloon stuffed into its mouth. The settings were chosen to keep as much of the subject in focus as possible while still accurately exposing the subject. In post, minor adjustments were made to color and saturation.

This photo satisfies requirement 5. It was taken when the sun was no longer above the horizon, which gave a very nice orange color of the sky. I merged multiple photos with different exposures to create this HDR photo, preventing the sky being overexposed while keeping the correct exposure for the front scene. I also cropped the photo to get a better composition and increased the contrast of the scene.

This photo satisfies requirements 1 & 5. It is taken in a completely dark room in full manual mode and I placed my iPad displaying a fire background in front of the metal kettle. To compensate for the low light environment, I increased the ISO to 400, used a larger aperture of f/5.0, and a slower shutter speed of 0.5s, and placed the camera on the back of a chair to reduce shakiness. I also adjusted the settings to capture the vertical extension of the fire reflection on the kettle. It is underexposed in the sense that we can only see the outline of the kettle reflecting the fire image, and I also intentionally tilted the camera to break the composition.

This photo fulfilled requirement 1, which is to take a studion portrait. I took the portrait at school studio. In the studio, there is a key light that have different light level with barn doors that can direct where the light to spot. I shine the key light from the leftside at the height that was horizontal to the girl's chest and then I add a fill light on the right side at the level of the girl's neck. The key light created a shadow on her face, however, the fill light helped avoiding making her right face completely dark.

I actually like the shadow the key light created on her nose. I did minor adjustments in Lightroom. All photos I took for this assignment was under manul mode.

This photo satisfies requirement 5. I went ahead and took this panorama at home using my iPhone. To do so, I went ahead and took 5 separate vertical photos that spanned across the dining room. Afterwards, I went ahead and stitched these photos together in an app to get the final result. It was interesting to see the EXIF information from the iPhone camera as well (the aperture and focal length were much smaller than I anticipated).

This photo satisfies requirement 4. I took these series using a Sigma 135mm with the speed burst mode on to shoot ~6fps and with the shutter speed at 1/400 to freeze the action in each moment. The people in this photo is doing a lay-up while I was taking these photos. I combined all the photos using photoshop to tell a small story in this way.

This photo satisfies Requirements 3 and 5. I was using a Sony ILCE-7 Viltrox 85mm F1.8 with an aperture of f22, the focal length of 18mm, exposure time of 1/13, and ISO of 400.

I took this picture at about 5:50 pm to capture the picture of dawn on the beach. Since I didn't have a tripod, I tried to hold the camera and changed to drive mode to take multiple pictures. Then, I tried to select the right photos from that many photos taken to merge images in Lightroom to create a panorama.

I did basic color processing to this image in Photoshop.

Note: I uploaded this album on May 26nd, 2021 in Vietnam, whose time is 14hour early than in the US. Thus, converting to PST time, this album was uploaded at night on May 25nd, 2021.

This photo fulfilled the requirement 4 & 1

I took this photo in a cloudy and drizzle weather and using my sony a6000 with E 55/210 mm lens for discovering the macro world. I zoomed in the lens and made the focal length of 129.0 mm, at f/5.6 aperture and 1/ 200 sec. shutter speed and ISO 1000.

Photo processed through Darktable 2.0.3. I used color-correct, changed the brightness, exposure and contrast slightly to make the contrast more vived.

Jamie planned a photo scavenger hunt. This photo met this requirement:

"At least half the group playing duck-duck-goose"

Personal Loan Requirements

This photo satisfies Requirement 3.

I took this photo using a Sony ILCE-7 Viltrox 85mm F1.8 with an aperture of f/2.8, a focal length of 85.0 mm, an exposure time of 1/100, and an ISO of 640.

This is the photo of my friend standing near the side of a storage house and pretending that she didn't know I was taking her photo. The key light was the light coming from the upper left corner in the photo and the fill light was the light at the lower right corner of the photo created by a small reflector placed on the ground that lightened the wheel and parts of my friend's shoes.

I did basic color processing to this image using Lightroom.

This photo emphasizes the joker card levitating in a "Joker's" hand. I did not take enough time in the background as needed and that is the one thing I do not like about the photo. I have lights on above him and to the side of him to help distort the shadows on his face.

The EducationUSA Fair 2015 took place on Sunday, February 1, 2015 at 3:00 – 7:00 pm in the Grand Ballroom of the Intercontinental Hotel in Phnom Penh.

With support from the U.S. Embassy, the fair is organized by EducationUSA in Cambodia, which aims to enhance the quality of education and expand educational and career opportunities for Cambodians. The fair provides a unique venue for Cambodians to connect with U.S. institutions of higher learning and to learn about the advantages of receiving a university education in the United States.

I took this picture by setting my shutter speed very high (1/4000) to get a dark photo even though it was a relatively bright afternoon. My aperture was also set to a high F-stop (My lenses are separate to my camera so I don't have the exact number recorded). The Dandelion is back-lit by a phone camera with a black phone case that makes it impossible to see due to the low exposure.

Otherwise only the colors were edited to make the light of the Dandelion a more natural white than the phone's initially incandescent tone.

This satisfies requirement one because the photo features extreme darks from having too low of an exposure, as well as extreme brights from having too high of an exposure.

This photo satisfies Requirement 1.

This image was captured at a blue dragon garden at night. I was using the Sony ILCE-7 Viltrox 85mm F1.8 with an aperture of f/2.8, focal length of 85.0 mm, exposure time of 1/125, and ISO of 500 while bending down to capture this photo.

The lights are artificial lights that help increase the growth speed of blue dragons, but the main subject is blue dragon fruits and their garden.

I did cropping and played around with color processing in Photoshop to this photo.

Hell's Gate is home to the Olkaria Geothermal Power Plant, the first productive geothermal insallation in Africa. The stations are eventually expected to supply half of Kenya's energy requirements.

I used the EF100mm f/2.8 Macro lens to shoot this series of photos. I rent this lens from school and used a aperture of 2.8, which is largest aperture possible for this lens. For macro photography, I want to use big aperture to give more focus on the object. In this photo, I shot the bellflower. There was sunlight lighting up only one flower, and I chose to focus on this flower. There were other flowers in the background which is out of focus. I also use the rule of third to make a better composition and it turns out to be quite good.

This photo was taken at 0.8 seconds in shutter priority mode. Because the street was well lit, I decided to keep the shutter speed under 1 second. In Lightroom, I lowered the exposure a bit more to give a more grim look and feel to the photo to match with mood of a crime scene.

Brig. Gen. Randall Reed is the Deputy Director of Strategic Plans, Requirements and Programs, Headquarters Air Mobility Command, Scott Air Force Base, Illinois passes a ceremonial C-5 key to SSgt Joel Stiffarm, a 60th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron C-5 Crew Chief. Gen Reed piloted C-5 M tail number 70030 back to Travis on 12 Jan 2016. The aircraft received major upgrades to the avionics, and new engines making it quieter and increased fuel efficiency. Members of the 60th Operations and Maintenance Groups make up the background. RELEASED (US AIR FORCE Photo by T.C. Perkins Jr.)

This photo fills requirement 2. The main composition rule here is color. The blue of the sky and the windows contrasts the brown and yellow, framing the windows of the building with the contrasting colors. To take this photo, I used a 35mm lens from a hill close by. Then, I used a 11 f/stop in order to keep everything in focus. A ISO of 800 keeps noise low on a D7000, and 1/80 is the shutter speed I needed to keep the exposure and shake correct. The manual mode was used for the exact control that I wanted.

Fort Bliss, Texas- Soldiers assigned to the 301st Military Police Company, US Army Reserve-Puerto Rico, pose for a photo after completing the training requirements at the Fort Bliss Mobilization Station.

This photo fills requirement 1. Here, I used the composition rule of thirds in which the buildings fill the bottom two thirds and the sky fills the top third. I got close to the building and a wide focal length in order to create this cool point of view. I used an f stop of 11 in order to keep everything in focus. So, I used aperture priority and an ISO of 800 to keep the noise low. The 1/60 focal length keeps the image from being blurry and the exposure correct.

I shoot this photo on the 10th floor of Seattle Public Library and it fulfills requirement 2: no vertical vanishing point and requirement 3: man-made frame. I was originally planning to shoot through the glazed doors where people were reading inside, but then I was inspired by the beautiful views outside of this diamond-shaped window, so I shoot this photo.

In this photo, I used aperture priority mode and set my aperture to ƒ/4.0 since the natural light wasn't sufficient enough; I had to increase aperture while keeping a lower ISO. In terms of post processing, I used the brush tool in Lightroom to desaturate the four corners(turning them into black and white).

I shoot this flower in front of Bagley Hall just after the rain. I think it fulfills requirement 1: focus on the foreground since everything behind the flower and its leaves in the front are out of focus. Other than requirement 1, it also fulfills requirement 4, which is plant. I shoot this photo on my way to my chemistry class, the raindrops left on the petals and its bright color really caught my attention so I stopped and shoot a photo of it.

I used shutter speed priority mode, I chose to use ƒ/4.8 and set my ISO to 640 because the weather was cloudy and it was almost 7 pm, where the natural light wasn’t strong enough so I have to higher my ISO value. Because my lens is not specially designed for macro photography, when editing, I cropped the photo in order to make the main object that is in focus to stand out. I feel like after I cropped this photo, its petal at the lower right corner forms a diagonal line with its stem on the upper left corner, which makes the overall composition more interesting. In terms of editing, I slightly adjusted exposure to make the overall photo brighter and increased contrast to make the flower looks warmer.

This photo fulfilled the requirement 1 & 4

I took this photo in a cloudy and drizzle weather and using my sony a6000 with E 55/210 mm lens for discovering the macro world. I zoomed in the lens and made the focal length of 130.0 mm, at f/5.6 aperture and 1/ 200 sec. shutter speed and ISO 2000.

Photo processed through Darktable 2.0.3. I used color-correct, changed the brightness, exposure and contrast slightly to make the contrast more vived.

This meets the requirement for being under exposed.

For this photo, I only chose to keep the Yellow-Orange color tone and desaturated all other color tones to make it monochromatic. I found it pretty interesting in this photo since we do not only see the colors inside the store (which is the main object), the color tone is also reflected from the street light onto the store, creating some different shades of yellow.

Since the lights inside the store were pretty bright compared to the surroundings, I set the shutter speed to 1.6s and aperture at f/5.0 to both keep the surrounding bright and the inside not too harsh. In Lightroom, I selected the inner store and decreased the exposure as well as the highlight option to balance it with the surrounding.

This photo was taken at Magnuson park on a really clear day, which is why Mt. Rainier was so visible. I had my friend balance on the wooden log and walk around it to replicate a carefree summer day feeling. For this picture I set my aperture to be low so that Mt. Rainier was still in focus when I focused on my friend.

In post processing I added grain and gave it a rose gold tint in order to emphasize the old-timey feel.

This satisfies requirement five because I used multiple layers to include my friend in the picture multiple times.

This photo satisfies the requirement 5. The photo is basically a double exposure. I took the first supreme logo from my laptop with lower exposure so that appears transparent, and I then took the portrait with the right amount of exposure so that we can see the subject through the logo. The picture was taken in the manual mode, the aperture is big enough to get the right amount of exposure and DOF, while the ISO is set to minimum to get less noise.

This is a completely out of focus shot of an LED strip. By setting the f-stop low and focusing to a (nonexistent) object that should be very far away, everything else in the photo becomes very blurry, giving it the light bokeh. This is also poorly composed because there is no symmetry nor can you understand the perspective of this shot.

In 1964, the Royal Air Force specified a requirement (Air Staff Target, AST, 362) for a new fast jet trainer to replace the Folland Gnat. The SEPECAT Jaguar was originally intended for this role, but it was soon realised that it would be too complex an aircraft for fast jet training and only a small number of two-seat versions were purchased. Accordingly, in 1968, Hawker Siddeley Aviation (HSA) began studies for a simpler aircraft, initially as special project (SP) 117. The design team was led by Ralph Hooper.

This project was funded by the company as a private venture, in anticipation of possible RAF interest. The design was conceived of as having tandem seating and a combat capability in addition to training, as it was felt the latter would improve export sales potential. By the end of the year HSA had submitted a proposal to the Ministry of Defence based on the design concept, and in early 1970 the RAF issued Air Staff Target (AST) 397 which formalised the requirement for new trainers of this type. The RAF selected the HS.1182 for their requirement on 1 October 1971 and the principal contract, for 175 aircraft, was signed in March 1972.

The prototype aircraft XX154 first flew on 21 August 1974 from Dunsfold piloted by Duncan Simpson, Chief Test Pilot of HSA (Kingston), reaching 20,000 ft in a flight lasting 53 minutes. All development aircraft were built on production jigs; the program remained on time and to budget throughout. The Hawk T1 entered RAF service in late 1976. The first export Hawk 50 flew on 17 May 1976. This variant had been specifically designed for the dual role of lightweight fighter and advanced trainer; it had a greater weapons capacity than the T.1.

More variants of the Hawk followed, and common improvements to the base design typically included increased range, more powerful engines, redesigned wing and undercarriage, the addition of radar and forward-looking infrared, GPS navigation, and night-vision compatibility. Later models were manufactured with a great variety in terms of avionics fittings and system compatibility to suit the individual customer nation; cockpit functionality was often rearranged and programmed to be common to an operator's main fighter fleet to increase the Hawk's training value.

In 1981, a derivative of the Hawk was selected by the United States Navy as their new trainer aircraft. Designated the McDonnell Douglas T-45 Goshawk, the design was adapted to naval service and strengthened to withstand operating directly from the decks of carriers, in addition to typical land-based duties. The T-45 entered service in 1994; initial aircraft had analogue cockpits, while later deliveries featured a digital glass cockpit. All airframes were planned to undergo avionics upgrades to a common standard.

A major competitor to the Hawk for export sales has been the Dassault/Dornier Alpha Jet; aviation expert John W. R. Taylor commented: "What Europe must avoid is the kind of wasteful competition that has the Hawker Siddeley Hawk and Dassault-Breguet/Dornier Alpha Jet battling against each other in the world market."

By early 1998, a total of 734 Hawks had been sold, more than 550 of which had been sold to export customers. Military customers often procured the Hawk as a replacement for older aircraft such as the BAC Strikemaster, Hawker Hunter, and Douglas A-4 Skyhawk.

During the 1980s and 1990s, British Aerospace, the successor company to Hawker Siddeley, was trying to gain export sales of the variable-wing Panavia Tornado strike aircraft; however, countries such as Thailand and Indonesia, which had shown initial interest in the Tornado, concluded that the Hawk is a more suitable and preferable aircraft for their requirements.

Malaysia and Oman cancelled their arranged Tornado orders in the early 1990s, both choosing to procure the Hawk, instead. Aviation authors Norman Polmar and Dana Bell stated of the Hawk: "Of the many similar designs competing for a share of the world market, the Hawk has been without equal in performance as well as sales".

This image satisfies requirement 3 (panorama). I took this picture on a rooftop looking over the Seattle skyline. The panorama is able to capture the city in the distance as well as the neighborhoods and trees that are closer by. I rotated the camera as I stood in a place overlooking everything I wanted within my panorama, and then merged the images in Lightroom. I made little adjustments to enhance the photo, increasing the contrast and clarity.
