Great Black and White Photographers 3

Image result for Ansel Adams Nevada Fall, Rainbow, Yosemite Valley c. 1947

What first caught my eye when looking at this photo was all the different parts of the image. As you are looking closely at this photo you will start to notice more details about the pic that stand out, like how crossing right through the middle of the picture there is a rainbow, but since it doesn't have any color your don't notice it as quickly. Also in all of this photographers photos when you are looking at them, it makes you starts to imagine what these nature pictures would look like if they had color.

In this image I smell the the salty air blowing around me, as I feel the warm ocean water reach my feet standing on the grainy sand as the water slowly build up around my ankles, and then gradually lessen as the water pulls back into the ocean. While standing out on the beach, with the warm sun shining down on me. I hear the sea breeze pushing past me onto my face allowing me to taste the salt captured in the air.



In this image, as I am walking I can feel the icy wind blowing past my face as it slowly freezes my face until it feels numb and tingly, while the soft, crunchy snow piles up around my ankles. I can smell the melted frosty snow as it softens around me, I can hear the little snowflakes falling around me and onto my head and into my hand as I taste the mound of snow that has been building up.

I would like to do a powerpoint presentation over Ansel Adams.

Africa

Image
1. When I was looking at the photos of African wildlife I noticed that all of the animals in the pictures looked really majestic and fierce. These images also show the real beauty of all these creatures in their natural habitat. As well as showing what life is like for those animals daily, catching and eating their prey, and taking care of their young. 2.  3. This is my favorite photo by Nick Brandt, because the background is nice, dark, and stormy, which makes the zebra in the middle of the frame pop. 4. The photography rules that are used in this photo is simplicity, because the plain, solid background brings the attention to the patterned zebra. 5. Nick Brandt uses the 67 shutter lens when he is taking photos, although it is not a high tech type of lens, he likes to use it because of the way the photos look when he looks at them through the ground glass. 6. Photography was merely the best medium for him to express his feelings about animals, and the natural world. 7.

The Camera

1. The "Camera Obscura" effect is when light is coming from the camera and projecting on to the wall in a dark room. It is created when you are in a dark room and there is a small hole in one wall where it is focused and the outside scene is projected upside-down on the other wall. 2. In the 17th century the high quality glass lens helped man come one step closer to creating the modern camera. 3. The parts of the modern camera were a glass lens, a dark box, and a film. 4. modern digital cameras and Niepce's camera both allow light too pass through the lens, into the camera, and expose the film which both result in a picture. 5.  digital cameras capture the images with an electronic sensor called a CCD. 6. On auto mode t he camera will completely control flash and exposure. 7. On program mode you just point and shoot. 8. On sports mode the  camera will use the highest shutter speed possible to freeze motion. 9. On manual mode  the photographer has to set both the s

Magazines Part 2

1) Image Based- Image Based magazine covers are the most common because they have less objects in it which make it more clean/ simple and less busy looking. Celebrities or fashion usually take place on the cover, and side shots can cause a more dramatic feel to the photo. 2) Illustration Based- Illustration Based magazines are not so common now as they used to be in the mid 20's and 30's but are now used more for comedic effect, or to present something funny. The magazine covers that use illustrated covers are independently published magazines that do not rely on newsstand sales. Also the illustration can draw eyes to it if it is drawn properly but, at the same time it is risky. 3) Type Based- Type Based magazines are also not very common but more common than the illustration magazines. The mostly have big letters and the headlines are usually something interesting or shocking.They are usually used by published work instead of newsstands,  if so less people will buy the pap
