Shooting Water in Motion

Phone Photos


1- This wasn't too difficult to shoot because the water moved slow enough that the picture would turn out clear.
2- We first did a test run on hoes the water moves and we reviewed those shots. Then we changed the order of the colors to get the maximum amount of color and to not just end up with a big black blob.

1- It was not easy to get the shot because I thick that photos turn out the best when my setting is outside. Every time I use my android phone inside it can looks too dark or it can look fuzzy or blurry. So inside this dark setting it was hard to focus my camera and get a shot that can see the drop. Also timing the drop with the phone was really hard because for my burst mode I was limited to only 30 drops.
2- The thing I didn't like about using burst mode was that some of the photos would turn out blurry and it wouldn't catch the moment I wanted to picture. 

DSLR Photos

1-Yes it was easy to get the shot because there was better lighting than the phone lighting and we had more control over when we wanted to take the shot.
2-I think that shooting without flash helps not get the glare of the light in the water. Also, it helped get all the color that the flash might have blurred out.


1- It was easier to get the shot on the DSLR than a phone because we had more control on the timing of the shot and it was also on a tripod so we didn't have to worry about the shakiness of our hands.
2-The part I didn't like about shooting the water with the flash was that there was a glare and it would take away some of the color from the background.

Artificial Motion Blur

Original

Motion Blur added

The picture looks sort of real because it looks like the dog is moving to look somewhere around an object.

Burst Photos


The Snatch

 This photo is a proper way of lifting the barbell off of the blocks. This certain lift is called the snatch and is a very difficult move to master in olympic lifting. Here the athlete is performing the snatch at a some what difficult weight for him and successfully makes the lift with very clean technique and power.

Green Screen Project

Responses-
  1. The most difficult part of this project was finding a background for the photo I took. I was going to put him in a boy band group but the proportions were all off and then I was going to put him in a dark alley but the perspective was all off. then I chose to just put his head on an album cover.
  2. The part I like most was changing the hue and saturation so it was similar to the original cover.
  3. The thing I could most improve on is planning my photos and edits before starting the project.
