During my reflection while doing this project, I really took the time to think about each element and principle. I took a computer art class in high school, so this project was not very challenging to me for I enjoy photography and have learned about elements and principles before. The biggest challenge of this project for me was the weather. When I wanted to take pictures, it was either too dark or too rainy out. I met in the middle and really tried to get the pictures I could while incorporating the principles and elements into the photo. I tried to incorporate a different element and/or principle for each photo but I found that hard, too. For nature, you can't really incorporate a couple of the principles or elements.
I own a personal Canon Powershot sx530 which is very nice at focusing and zooming. It is nice for my everyday use but I would like to upgrade to something like a DSLR. I also think I need to learn more about the settings of my camera so I can use it to it's full capacity.
I am familiar with Photobucket so making the slideshow was not hard for me. I have been storing my photos on there since I was about ten years old and the only difficulty I have had with Photobucket now is the fact that it has changed so much. As far as the project goes though, I did not have any problems with storing my photos or making the slideshow.
Emily, I enjoyed looking at all of your pictures. You must have a really good camera because all of the pictures were beautiful! I personally liked the one of the ocean and the flowers. I agreed with you on each element and principle you chose to match each picture. I also agree with what you said that this project was not very challenging however, I found it did challenge me because I do not have an amazing camera so the pictures did not turn out as good as yours. Either way, great post!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed your slide show. The colors and balance of all of your pictures really drew me in. I love the picture of the moon you took along with the scenery photos they really inspired me. I found this project to be very challenging for me only because it takes me a while to think about what pictures I could use for each of the elements and principles I'm not very good thinking on my toes but after looking at your pictures it made me realize how simple it would have been if I just let lose and not think so much which to me it seems like it was simple for you based on your photos. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI really liked your slideshow all the images were very colorful. i especially liked your image for texture, and thought it was interesting that you chose a tree branch for line. I had to look at that for awhile.
