The Story

I think that this is showing emotion because they are reacting to the explosion and it was caught on camera. 

This is showing something cool because the lighting will it makes it look really cool.

This is showing a story  because he is teaching the class about a subject.

Balance


Simplicity


Rule of Thirds


Framing

I think this photo is framing because the 4 sides of the building that has been blown out frames the fire fighter very well.

Avoiding Mergers

I think that this is avoiding mergers because i really don't know what the main point of this pictures for my it is really distracting and maybe if the photographer focus on one of the groups of people instead  the whole group of people.

Lines

this shows lines because the sidewalk and the buildings lead the person to somewhere. Also the light helps the photo be directed somewhere.

camera history

1. the hole acts like a lens, focusing and projecting light onto the wall of the dark chamber.

2. issac newton and christian huygens perfected the  understanding of optics and the process of making high quality glass lenses.

3. niepce created the first modern camera with a dark box,glass lens and film.

4. Modern cameras are still have some of the same parts as Niepce's original camera.

5. Digital cameras, as opposed to plastic film in the old-fashioned ones, capture the image with an electronic sensor called a CCD. 

6. In Auto mode, the camera controls the flash and the exposure while in Program mode, you can control flash and exposure.

7. Portrait mode is used to focus on only your subject and blur the background.

8. Sports mode is used to freeze motion,  the highest shutter speed possible.

9. you would press the button half way down for it to focus on what you want to take a picture of.

10. The symbol means "Disabled Flash," meaning no flash. you would use this if wanted it to be more dramatic with the natural light.

11. This symbol means the flash is on auto. On most cameras, the flash will fire if it thinks the picture needs more light.

12. If there is too much light, the picture will be washed out.

13. If there is not enough light, the picture will be very dark.

14. A "stop" is a measure of light.

15. The new planet is 1 stop brighter if there are two sons instead of one.

16. The new planet is 2 stops brighter if there are four sons instead of two.

17. A longer shutter speed will make the photo have more light.

18. A shorter shutter speed will make the photo have less light.

19. the apature controls the amount of light that is let into the camera.

20. When adjusting the aperture, you can increase the amount of light by making the opening larger.

2. yes, I sometimes had to turn my head sideways to see what it really looks like.

My first post

This is my best picture of Brianna because I think the lighting is good.I like the sky in the background. I think that the emotion on her face is good because its not like a normal picture where you are just smiling.
                                                                     
I don't like this one of priscilla because i don't think that this is a very good angle specifically. She also has a shadow on her face.
