Blur photo's Black and white

















American photography question assignment

1. Alfred Stieglitz was an American Photographer who was instrumental about the acceptance of taking pictures as art.

2. He is noteworthy because he opened New York art callers in the early 1900's. And brought art work to the U.S.

3.The famous painter he was with was named Georgia O'Keeffe. She was famous for painting.

Extra Credit: Georgia O'Keeffe and Alfred Stieglitz influenced each other because she was a painter and he was a photographer and they both fed off each others ideas since they majored in different art pieces.

The last day

*This semester in photography I learned that it really matters, and makes an effect on the different angles you use to take a picture. Also, the different techniques you can use to take a picture, I never knew how many there really were until this unit, such as how to do a blur photo and capturing one thing still in the picture and the rest in movement. Such as the different components that are used and that it honestly doesn't matter what kind of camera you have, or how good the quality is, it's all in the photographer, itself.
 *This semester what I learned about myself is, once i get into the project itself I actually start doing a good job and really getting into it. Missing a lot of school for my medical reasons was hard to keep up with the editing and photoshop and missing out on certain techniques killed me a lot. Photography was one thing my grandfather was always into and he was really good at it unfortunetly he had to move to Florida this September but I plan to be moving there with them and photography is something I'd like to continue looking into and giving me and my grandfather something to bond with.
*I wish we could have gone into the dark room more, and learned more with just the old fashioned film camera's. But I do understand in this generation, with all the technology we have, it kind of out puts the past.
*My biggest struggle was not having a camera plug in for my computer and no memory slot for my computer and when I got assigned a project and I was absent, I would be working on that previous project in class because I had no other way to get my pictures in and edited and I lost track of how many assignments I needed and I guess my time management was off from all the moving around and being sick in the e.r. and not being in class enough to understand how to work Photoshop. That made me struggle the most in this class.
*For no stability since my grandparents had to move, I feel with everything that has been going on, I conquered a passion and some skills I could use as I move forward looking into more photography. I felt proud as I took pictures and felt good about myself, because after I take a picture seeing the nature or sky in a background puts me in a happy mood, and I just think " wow, we have a beautiful world". On the side of photography and camera's, Tempest Muzzey and I, are going to be working on our own film video, working with different effects, angles, lighting and a lot more. We have already started it and we plan to persue it and keep up on it.

Blur Photo's




Light Photo's





My favorite picture is the little girl with face paint because the way the natural light hit her face really made the entire picture glow. Plus adding the shine and sparkle from the face paint made it absolutely beautiful. I also liked how there is a dark shadow as if there was a covered area but at the same time showing a stream of  natural light and still showing the colors of the paint as well.
