Ive decided to make a swarm photo out of pictures of my little brother with his cell phone. I'll be doing a composite photo.

In Depth Photo Illustration

This is a Realistic Image. Its interesting because its real life with added features. The point of this photo is to add real life to the people who seem to be just starting a life together. I like this image because it gives the artist a chacne to add what they think life would be like for the two.

This is a composite photo. It takes different photos and places them together to make one complete photo. I like how the photo has "grown up" items and places the "baby" symbolizing how children want to grow up so fast.

This is a staged photo. The candles were stage to make out the 9/11 and were photographed. I like this photo because the candles add a symbolic meaning to the date they make out.

This is a photo made into art. The photographer added touches to the photo to make it look like it was drawn instead of from a camera. I like the detail that the artist added into the photo.

Photo Illustration

In this photo they artist used Kermit, a well known cartoon as the main focus. Using Kermit was a great idea, because it was easier for a person to be quickly attracted to the article. The artist also added photos of other celebrities that were "left handed" which brought more attention to the article.

Action Photography

I learned that zone focus is when you firgure out what the action is that you are shooting. Its about waiting for the right moment for it to come to you. I also learned about Panning which is following the motion with the lens. Shutter speed also has to be set to the right settings depending on the brightness outside and the actions speed. When waiting for the pause in action you have to steady the camera on a certain spot and wait for the right moment to shoot.

The Photo I found most appealing was photo 9. This photo used outstanding lighting which effected the photo in a good way. There were also many shapes and angles in this photo that drew attention to the photo. This photo was in great focus and captured alot of details.
