Picture taken with square camera - Kenz

This picture was taken with a square camera and I like how everything is in focus except the foreground of what appears to be where the cars are. I like the vanishing point aspect of this photo as well.

Temperature effects - Kenz

This picture demonstrates the different effects of color temperature. The color temperature of a light source is the temperature of an ideal black-body radiator that radiates light of comparable hue to that of the light source. Color temperature is conventionally stated in the unit of absolute temperature, the kelvin, having the unit symbol K.

Color temperatures over 5,000K are called cool colors (blueish white), while lower color temperatures (2,700–3,000 K) are called warm colors (yellowish white through red).

Shutter Speed - Kenz

I took this when I was the passenger on a Vespa in Interlaken this weekend. I took it while we were moving so the blurriness shows that the shutter speed was not quick enough to focus the entire wall. The blurriness in the foreground adds a nice effect. 

Emphasizing color - Kenz

I took this photograph down by the Tiber River. We were told to maximize the color of the flower so I used a Telephoto lens. I like how the purple of the flowers stand out. I also like how the background is blurry due to the smaller depth of field.

Class with Andrea Ruggeri - Kenz

Although this picture is a little overexposed, I kind of like it that way. I like how everything is bright including the background. And it helps in making them stand out. The subjects are great models and this was taken when we were practicing photographing something in motion so they were walking towards us.

Annie Leibovitz Photo - Kenz

This is a picture taken by Annie Leibovitz, she is an American photographer who has worked for Rolling Stones and Vanity Fair. It was in the 1980's when she introduced a new style of lighting and her use of colors and poses that landed her the job at Vanity Fair. I love the lighting and the haziness in the background with the stiff pose of the subject. She is a noted photographer because in 1991 she mounted an exhibit at the National Portrait Gallery where this picture above was shown. She was the first women to show there.

Dantheman

I took this picture down by the tiber river in class last week. I just love the color and detail of the flowers in this photo. Not to mention, the depth of field was also portrayed.

Dantheman

The focus of this picture was to capture the blue of the construction in the background. Although the picture is underexposed, I felt like I did a decent job capturing the blue.

Dantheman

This picture was taken in class at the Villa of Borghese. The professor asked us to try and capture the expression of this statue. Although my horizontal lines aren't perfect, I think I capture the expression very well. I found the expression to be very strong.

The professor asked us to take a picture while focusing on the statue. I like that in my picture the statue is the main focus but the two similar buildings in the background are symmetric.

Jan- Arm (Jul 25)

This is a picture that I took of a statue. Since the professor told us to focus on just the arm and hand, I like how the background looks dark, making the statue stand out more than it would if you would actually see the green leaves. 

Jan- Water (jul 25)

This is an image I took in Piazza del Popolo. I like how I captured the lady taking a picture while you can actually see the drops of water coming out of the lion's mouth.  

Jan-Judging (Jul 25)

From the angle that I took this picture, it seems as though the statue in the background is actually judging Batman. The expression on his face makes it seem as though he disapproves whatever Batman is doing.

I really like this photo due to the subject matter.

Klcosta-exposure

Diaphram of 5.6 and 6 seconds. This picture was taken at night but i over exposed it to make the sky look a lot lighter.

Jay - Color Saturation

Using the color saturation tool on Photoshop, I made the Arc du Triumph grayscale by deleting only the yellow hues.

Lasso Effect (Isolating Colors) - Kenz

By using the lasso tool you can select certain parts of a picture and isolate colors or can brighten or darken certain parts of a photograph. I used the lasso tool to circle the rose, then I inverted the command to isolate the background. I then did 'command and u' where I adjusted the saturation to make the background black and white while keeping the rose red.

Ugly Beauty - Kenz

I took this picture at the Vatican Museum. This is the Belvedere Torso by Michelangelo. I really liked the distortion of the body seen in the statue and the essence of ugly beauty portrayed. I used an ISO of 800, aperture of 4.0 and a shutter speed of 1/30.
