In-Depth Photo Illustrations

The photo made into art: CROSSING THE- The image is illustrating a boat leaving the doc passing light house. One of the reasons I like this photo/image is because it is hand-altered according to the discription under the photo/image on the website.





The photo realistic alteration: Living inside bipolar- The photo is showing the reality of people whom suffer from bipolar pretty much go though...trapped in their own body. I like this image because I can simi-relate to this, not me personally but people close to me...it lets me know a little more how they feel.



The composite image:CLAM BED- The image is showing clams being harvested. One of the reasons that I chose this image for this subject is because it looks like more than one image was used to make one...even though I may be wrong.





The staged illustration (Traditional):Romantic Standards- This is showing the love between these 2 people whom are sharing I'm assuming Valentines Day together. The reason I chose this photo was because it was on of the photos that caught my eye and I went back for more than a 2nd look...mainly cause it has todo with love.

art of simple idea...

The image I choose was the burned paper dolls. The message of the illustration is abused kids. The kids being the paper dolls and the burnt part of the picture is the loss and emptiness of everyone involved. The way that they got this image was they most likly cut out paper dolls and scanned the image onto the computer and used the stamp icon in photoshop and a picture of a burned piece of paper and did it that way or just burned the edges of cut out paper dolls.

4 photography terms

Zone Focus is the depth of field that is in the correct clarity. Shutter Speed is how fast or slow the shutter moves for the light to show on the sensitivity of the film. Panning is the act of following a moving subject with the camera while releasing the shutter. Waiting for the Pause is following the subject/s and waiting for them to stop/pause giving you the chance to get a shot with or with out their knowing.

Sports shoot plans

I would like to shoot something like volleyball or something of that matter. But volleyball season isn't happing this time of year, so I'll have to shoot on frisbee day.





(I wrote that in pass tense. I have already done my shoot for sports.)

My favorite photo is number 9 because of the lighting. Also because they used a low shutter speed to capture the light and to get that long red line at the bottom (tail light of a car). The impact of the light against the night sky just makes the building have even more effect too. The main focus of the picture is the building not only because it sticks out so much but also because the car is all burred (not only cause it's moving) and the architecture is so detailed.

Poems

I read peoms for 3 minutes.

April Rain Song is my favorite



Beggar Man, Paris, 1950 is my favorite photo by Parks. It is an enviornmental photo. The effect is a sad effect because of the way the light makes the shadows over the eyes and on the Man's cheek bone and the way his head is looking down.

#10 National Geographic (June 1985)Photographer Steve McCurry immortalized the haunted eyes of a 12-year-old refugee in a camp on the Afghanistan-Pakistan border. Soviet helicopters destroyed her village and family, forcing her to make a two-week trek out of the perilous mountains of Afghanistan. The photo became a National Geographic icon after it was published on the cover in June 1985. Since then, this raw, untouched image has been used on rugs and tattoos, making it one of the most widely reproduced photos in the world.

Critique: The photo of the girl is beautiful. I love that it is a raw untouched image as it said in the discription above. The was she is angled and the was her eyes pop out at you with such hauntingness and mystery but also so much sadness and morning for her family. She is shown in her natural state of person.

Cover History

Cover types:
1. Early Magazine Covers-I think that the Early Magazine Covers show that they just wanted to get to the point and show you what is going on and as time progressed they started to kind of wanting you to guess what is going on and pull you a little more modern. They started what is now today and tomorrow.

2. The Poster Cover-The Poster Cover magazines varied from magazine to magazine for instance older magazines just had a picture that just had to do with a mood or maybe the seasons and not what was on the inside. Sometimes there were no captions at all and it was just the magazine logo.

3. Pictures Married to Type-Pictures Married to Type magazines have amazing different photos with text just dancing around the photo like a party. It just catches your eye and does not let it go without a fight. The different sizes of font on random places of the magazines makes you want to read them, the text influences the photo.

4. In the Forest of Words-In the Forest of Words magazines the cover is not just about text or the image on it both are out there and eye catching and capture your everything. Photos and words compliment each other so magazines not only look better they sell better.

Color Shoot

For my color shoot I plan to shoot portaits of my friends or some family and one may be two self-protraits.
