Week 11 - Circles

Coffee gets most of us through our days. I often take advantage of the beautiful design on my daily cup of joe. This week's assignment was perfect for capturing some everyday circles.

Photo was taken using my LG Revolution  at 4.3 mm.

Lexi Jones - week 10: triangles

This photo was taken with a Canon Rebel T3i at ISO 2000, 55mm, f/5.6 and shutter 1/80. I think it's a good representation of triangles.

Lexi Jones - Week 11: Circles

This photo was taken with a Canon EOS Rebel T3i at ISO 400, 18mm, f/4 and shutter 1/60. I chose this photo because I think the implied circles add interest, and the dynamic directions draw you in. Like the article said, implied circles are more interesting.

Kevin Hammond - Rectangles (#11)

Shot with a Apple iPhone 4S, 1/20, @ f 2.4, 4.28mm, ISO 320 (Cheating, I know, but I had some pictures on my real camera……but…….my kids have taken off with it somewhere and I can't find it, so I have this one).

Took this one at work which I think is littered with rectangles.  You have the shapes on the walls, the dock door rails, the boxes, the carts, the pallets, the racks, the spaces between the poles, the rafters and sections of concrete with the seams.  You could also included the rectangular sections of the entire floor of product, wall, rack and ceiling as a whole.  I got the shot while up high on a picking forklift.

Ellie Chamberland - Rectangles Week 11

Taken with a Kodak EasyShare.  This photo was taken in NYC at the High Line park.  There are so many different rectangles coming from all different angles in this photo.  I love the POV it was shot from. 

Ellie Chamberland - Week 10 Curves

Taken by a Kodak EasyShare camera.  This photo is of the Colosseum in Rome.  There are many curves in the photo, the most prominent being the actual curve of the structure.  There are also curves in the arched doorways.

Shot with a Canon Powershot SX230, 1/50 @f/4.4, 18mm, ISO 100

I took this picture of a telephone pole just outside my house to represent a vertical line. I like how the colors of the sky turned out, it adds to the picture.

Rachel Hawkes: Curves

Shot with a Canon Powershot, 1/4 @ f/4, 10.4mm, ISO 3200

I took this shot on a trail up Mill Creek Canyon, when I saw this tree that was falling over.  I had forgotten I had even taken this picture and I thought that it was a good example of a natural curve in nature.

Kevin Hammond - Curves (#10)

Shot with a Canon Powershot A710 IS, 1/40, @ f 2.8, 5.8mm, ISO 100

Took this during one of my last Mt. Bike outings.  This is on the trail near the mouth of Mill Creek Canyon trail.  I loved how all the trees in this area curved over the trail forming a wooded dome.

Reiko Turner - Lines

This photo was captured with a Sony H50. I happened upon actual and created lines in my bedroom.

Ellie Chamberland - Lines

Shot with a Kodak EasyShare Point and Shoot.  This is a photo in the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe in Berlin.  I love the memorial because there are so many different horizontal and vertial lines and levels.  There are so many unique pictures I have from the memorial and all are so different from one another. 

Ellie Chamberland - POV / Macro

Shot with a Canon EOS Rebel XTI. This is a unique macro view of one of the radiators in my apartment. I love the detail you can see in the paint as well as the strong, repetitive lines

Kienan Hamm - Lines

Shot with Sony Cyber-Shot. 1/200 @ f10, ISO 3200. The horizontal line forces the birds into a neat little row of focal points. I also like this shot because it's unlike a lot of my other pictures--most of my subjects are static and pose no risk of flying away, but it's kind of exciting trying to get as many photos as you can knowing that, eventually, it won't be there anymore. I did a little post-editing with contrast and saturation to make the building and birds almost silhouettes to the white-washed sky.

Kevin Hammond - Lines (#9)

Shot with a Canon Powershot  A710 IS, 1/40, @ f 2.8, 5.8mm, ISO 100

I especially like the vertical lines caused by the leaking or seeping from cracks and holes.
It makes this pic feel like it "oozes" with lines.

Lacey Molina - Random Cool Picture

I'm uploading this picture just because I like it so much. Often people will try to shoot a photo of something beautiful, but what is happening on this pomegranate tree is quite the opposite. I enjoyed shooting something pretty gross but pretty pretty at the same time.  :)

Lacey Molina - Week #8

Shot with a Cannon EOS Rebel, 1/125, at f 5.6, 18 mm, ISO 400. I shot this picture during a recent trip to Las Vegas. My friend has a palm tree that looks exactly like a pineapple in her backyard. It was nice kicking up my feet and relaxing with my camera. 

POV

Here is my point of view from a unique perspective.  Shot with a NikonD7000.

Assignment #9 Aodhan Hayter

Shot with Pentax K10D 18mm 0.3s f/10 ISO 800
This is the TRAX station in Farmington, has some cool vertical, horizontal and diagonal lines.

#9 Lines

This photo was taken with a canon T3i at 30mm, 1600 ISO, f/4.5, and shutter speed 1/50. It was taken at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. I've totally fallen in love with these lines. 

I couldn't stop myself for including this photo. I love it. I love the exposure, the composition, etc. I think it's a good demonstration of having two focal points -something that was talked about in the reading for this assignment. It was taken with a canon T3i at 41mm, IS0 400, f/5 and 1/60 shutter speed. I think it produced a really neat effect! I especially like how the composition makes the chandelier in the background look like a mirror reflection of the front one. It's actually two though! Awesome.

Assignment 8 -unique point of view

This photo was taken on temple square with a canon T3i at 187 mm of a telephoto lens, f/6.3 and shutter speed 1/320. I liked the unique point of view.
-Lexi Jones

Wren Withers - Lines

This was shot with my Canon Rebel T2i.

1/100 shutter and 400 ISO This sunrise was incredible!  Maybe you guys saw it on Friday the 19th? The light created an awesome effect and gave several diagonal lines to the shot.

This is just another cool picture of many I took this morning.

Shot with Sony Cyber-Shot, 1/320, @ f10, ISO 3200. I don't think it's as obvious at this size, but this picture turned out a lot of noise as collateral for shooting at maximum zoom for the telephoto effect. It did accomplish what I was trying to do, namely forcing the yellow leaves of one tree in the same frame as the bench on the left. Stood about fifty yards off in order to do so; in reality, these two elements (tree and bench) were maybe twenty yards apart. (Give or take, I'm a terrible judge of distance, and I didn't have a ruler on hand and I wasn't on a football field.)

Shot with Sony Cyber-Shot, 1/640, @ f9, ISO 3200. I like how this turned out, especially since I was a little worried that the slouching silhouette wouldn't come across as a person; however, I think the leaves of the tree somehow draw focus to the figure and, in doing so, make it the clear subject of the photo.

Assignment 8: POV

This image was taken close to the ground with a wide-angle focal length to capture the entire scene.

Kevin Hammond - Wide Angle

Shot with a Canon Powershot  A710 IS, 1"/6, @ f 4, 5.8mm, ISO 100
So, not having a wide-angle lens, I went for the wide-view shot.  My wife christening her new bike with my daughter cheering in jubilee.  

Kevin Hammond - POV

Shot with a Canon Powershot  A710 IS, 1"/6, @ f 3.5, 5.8mm, ISO 100
I like the alternative angle of the bike which gives it more depth and dimmension than a typical profile shot that bikes are normally in.

Wren Withers Macro and POV

These first two pictures were done with a telephoto lens on my Canon 550D.  I was about 15 ft away and just zoomed in.  

This Picture is for the POV assignment.  This is actually a picture I pulled from GoPro video I was shooting earlier today.  I thought it was a unique angle and perspective. 

Here is a macro picture from last week.

Rachel Hawkes: POV

Shot with a Canon Powershot  SX230, 1/1250, @ f 4.5, 5mm, ISO 1600
This unique perspective was shot by me laying on the ground and pointing my camera up the tree.  I wanted to get the top the tree but my lens could not zoom far enough without cutting out the bottom.

Shot with a Canon Powershot SX230, 1/200 @ f 4.5, 7mm ISO 3200
I shot this wide angle perspective while my dog was in the process of barking.  I should have changed the ISO because the lighting of the photo is sort of terrible, but oh well.

Kienan Hamm - Macro Photo

Shot with Sony Cyber-Shot, 1/200 @ f4, ISO 3200. 2X digital zoom. As close as I could possibly get without sacrificing clarity to pineapple skin. I like the interesting texture and, despite some shine, I like the colors; I only wish the focus didn't peter out quite so soon and extended to the needle at the middle distance.

Kevin Hammond - Rule of Thirds

Shot with a Canon PowerShot A710, 1"6  @ f 3.2, 7.701/ISO 100


I think this photo demonstrates the rule of thirds. My son, James, is picking our downstairs neighbor's berries without permission. His head and bum bum hit a few sweet spots on the left and the bush hits some on the right.

Michelle Plouffe Light Pic

                            This image of melting snow on a window has a warm tone with soft light coming from      the background.

Ellie Chamberland Rule of Thirds

I shot this photo at the High Line Park in NYC.  The tree becomes the focal point in the top right area of the photo, illustrating the rule of thirds.  The benches also create a line that moves the focus toward the tree.  Shot with a Kodak EasyShare point and shoot camera. 

Rule of 3rds

This photo demonstrates the rule of thirds for landscapes. I put the horizon on the bottom horizontal line to make the tumultuous sky the focus of the photo. This photo was taken with a Canon Rebel T3i. It was taken at iso 160, 37 mm, f/4.5 and a shutter speed of 1/50. I subsequently brightened the image in photoshop.


-Lexi (Alexis) Jones

I used the big pumpkin as my focal point.  Nikon  D7000

Kienan Hamm - Lighting

Shot with Sony Cyber-Shot, 1/320 @ f3.5, ISO 100; used an auto-setting for overcast/cloudy/shady shots. I really like the hard shadows, especially on the right half of the frame--the grass has great texture, and I like the long shadows cast by the tombstones. The flowers, as well as the white sunlight on the right, soften the colors a bit and give the picture warm color tones.

Aodhan Hayter Assignment #7

Shot with a Pentax K10D 18mm 0.002s f/8 ISO 400
Shot this a while back on my trip to Norway kayaking on a fjord in Voss.
Rule of thirds in play with the kayaks and continuation of the fjord in the background.

Lacey Molina - Week #7

Shot with a Cannon EOS Rebel, 1/320, at f 5.6, 300 mm, ISO 400. I thought this photo was interesting because it looks like the trunk of a large tree but really this is an example of the macro rule and this is a stem of a small gourd I purchased for Halloween.

Lacey Molina - Week # 6

Shot with a Cannon EOS Rebel, shutter speed 1/500, at f 16, 55 mm, ISO 250. This is my example of a photo with cool color balance and hard light. I used the day time setting on my camera to get the correct color balance.

Rachel Hawkes: rule of thirds

Shot with a Canon Powershot SX230 HS, 1/2500 @f/8, 18.4mm, ISO 3200

This was my rule of thirds shot showing the car as the subject and on the bottom left point of interest.

Rachel Hawkes: hard light w/warm color temperature

Shot with a Canon Powershot SX230 HS, 1/2500 @ f/8, 5mm, ISO 3200.  This shot was taken at the beginning of the Mount Olympus trail in the evening around 5:30pm. The sun is coming from the west.

Kimberly Roach Macro (Lesson 7)

Shot with Nikon D40, 1/20 @ f.56 18mm ISO800. I used a diopter filter well 2 actually that can be layered. Also, I didn't zoom in any which is why there is black around the edges because of the diopter filter.
