I decided to focus on architecture for my first photo assignment. I find architecture very interesting. Around my area there are some old and new buildings, so I feel like I could get a good variety of pictures. Also, while I try and capture architecture I can use what I learned in the composition assignment like symmetry and perspective. Here are some pictures I found on Flickr for inspiration: These are great examples of how the photographer used different angles to capture eye pleasing pictures. I think I could use these techniques by choosing interesting buildings and finding good angles.

For this assignment we started out talking about the different functions of our cameras. After learning that we took notes and learned about different elements of composition. We spent several days taking pictures falling in the specific categories. Rule of ThirdsDepth of FieldLinesPatternI filled the frame with the fence which gives the impression of size. SymmetryTextureBalanceColorFramingGraces hands are highlighting the light which is the main point of interest. PerspectiveI shot from a high angle looking down on Grace. SpaceI learned a lot during this project. Going into this I didn't have that much knowledge about photography, but now I feel like I have a solid base on how to use a camera and the different elements of composition. The one thing that I did find challenging was not knowing exactly how my pictures turned out. I found that once I uploaded them to the computer some looked blurry, so I made sure once I re-took the picture that it was in focus and my hands were steady. Overall, this project was fun and taught me a lot about the basics of photography.
Hi I'm Katie Sloan. Welcome to my photo blog! I live in Saline, Michigan and attend Saline High School. My family consists of my mom, dad, and brother. My hobbies include sports, sleeping, and my phone. I took digital photography because I have always been interested in photography, but I have never been able to try it. I'm excited to learn new things this year and become a better photographer.
