Assignment 5: Random objects

Well, I figured out what happened to my assignment and why I have a zero on it. I just didn't blog about it, so this is what I do now for you. This is just shooting random objects you find around your house or wherever you find yourself.
This happens to be a swim bag. This image is in focus, thank you Mr. Slade for the lesson, but this particular image would have been very hard to shoot out of focus. Ironic, huh? Well anyway, you can see the texture quite clearly and the image managed to hold itself together.
This is a Halloween decoration taped to a window in my home. I love how the spider looks like it's about to eat the tree in the background. We all knew giant spiders would destroy the world. The spider is in focus, but the window pane in the corner is bugging the crap out of me. (No pun intended) All in all, a pretty decent image
I should have spent a bit more time with this. It is in focus, but the background is kind of distracting and the light is a bit funny. In conclusion, has unrealized potential.
This is just a bunch of magnetic stick figures stuck to the door. It is slightly out of focus, and is kind of boring, no real selling point. Not best image ever
This is my favorite one of the bunch. I found this one just randomly one day when I was just playing with the frog and it landed on my plaudit from my history class. It is in perfect focus, and is one of the most interesting pictures I have ever taken. A+ grade picture here.
Crocodile shall rule the world. FEAR HIM...even if he is slightly out of focus. Not the best image ever, but it is halfway decent and works for this assignment.

My First Panorama


My first panorama which did not get mangled in the merging process. This is the blocks at the local rec center. The center really bulges, but I think that is natural. It really turned out nice.

Assignment 6, Portraits

I really liked this assignment. Anytime I get to wear my Russian outfit is a good time, but I think I got a bit carried away, though. I like how I am in focus in most of these shots, even with my sister shooting. I had to crop out my cabinet in most shots, but they still turned out quite well. Next time I need to give myself a bit more time, and I should give my sister a lesson in cameratology.

This is my creepy sister making a face at me. It has good focus, but the white below her eye is blown out. The background is a bit distracting, but the light is decent. This has more potential, but it turned out alright.

I like this because of the energy it is giving off. I am mostly in focus, but my hands are pretty blurry and clipped off. The sword is blurry, but it gives off a motion feel, like I am swinging the sword. The light is also just plain dead. Better than some of my previous work, though.
I LOVE this image. I am in perfect focus, and I give off such power. The hero angle is perfect for this shot. There are just a few things I would fix, though. I would stand a bit more to my right, even out the spaces, and I would put some more light on the front of me. But I think this was the best one of the bunch.
This one could have been better. Again with the dead light, and the focus is off. The yell is pretty fake, but it is still a powerful picture. Just need to re-shoot it with some different light.
I love this one too. I am in focus, but the gun is blurry. The look on my face is perfect for the image. Again with the dead light, Danial is coming over the next time I do this. There is so much power coming off of this image, and I love it.
Getting tired of seeing me yet? Apparently I was the only one who took to many self-portraits and not enough portraits of other people. Messed up, right? Well anyway again with dead light, but I think I might just have gotten focus down. Yay.
I like this one because it shows how our dog is the boss of the house, and everyone else is behind him. He fell asleep during this, but still it is in focus, and is very powerful. Great shot, but STILL is with the dead light. Will work on that in future.

Halloween Assignment

This is my time at the graveyard. I'm glad I brought my camera, because some weird stuff started to happen. I saw a few ghosts there, and they were acting quite strangely.

This first ghost was actually playing golf in the graveyard. With my 8 sec exposure, I caught him teeing off on the first grave. I love how everything besides the ghost is in focus, and how I caught the entire swing. So graceful.

I absolutely LOVE this image. Everything is in focus, and, you may need to look a bit for it, the ghost is the absolute best thing on the planet. Psst, look to the left of the graves. Were those flowers there before?
