This photo shows an adventure I went on with my friends, one of my favorite things to do is go hiking and find cool places to go to. After I got assigned this assignment I decided to go hiking to a different place i’ve never been to but heard many thing of, I figured that I would find a cool place to take a picture at & I found this tunnel that was very scary but just decided to take pictures outside of it since the inside was pitch black & scary 🙁

This a picture of journey because this is what she does on a daily bases. She loves to eat jello and read Harry Potter books. This is what makes her successful at home to please my mother. The one of her on the floor represents her finish doing her chores and the last one the couch is her watching tv. This journey makes her successful for now when she is home but she is only 13 years old.

Describe: In the photo, one can see an adolescent female leaning against a wooden wall. She has long, lose curly hair that’s dark towards her roots but fades down into a dirty blonde color. She is wearing a dark gray shirt that contrast with her fair skin. Her skin appears to be very smooth and natural. She has a subtle smile in the photo, connecting eyes with the viewer.

Analyze: The photo uses a lower depth of field because although the wood can be made out, it is subtlety faded. The lighting used is side light because to the right of her is a shadow casted onto the wall. Garage lighting is also being used because she appears to be standing on a porch, only letting in light from one side of her, creating even lighting throughout the photo. The subject is following rule of thirds and her eyes fall onto the grid lines. The background is light and creates a nice contrast against the top half of her dark hair while her dark gray shirt contrast with the lower half of her ombre blonde hair. The photo seems honest and natural with very little editing.

Interpret: The portrait gives off a welcoming feeling. She appears as though she’s ready to listen to you and her gentle grin lets you know she’s friendly. The way that the photo was taken up close creates an intimate mood because we’re in her personal space.

Judge: I Chose this photo because I love how natural it is, from her kind eyes to her rosy cheeks. Overall the portrait came out beautifully and the lighting is just right. The photo is successful because of the angle it was taken at because it seems like we’re leaning in to talk to her. If  I were to change anything in this photo I would only create a more shallow depth of field.

 

Describe: this is a photo of a girl with long brown hair, seems to look like a Latina, wearing a off red type of hoodie, and is looking to the left.

Analyze: I think the photographer used an open shade kind of lighting. Seems like the photographer also used a 200mm lens , the rule of thirds applies to this photo because her eyes are in the top quadrant. this photographer also simplified the background really nicely are used maybe an aperture of 8 f-stop.

Interpret: I think this photo gives off a concentrated mood/tone because of the stare she gives away from the camera. Her eyes seem honest and as if she was not being photographed. The photographer did a really nice job on capturing the real her. Now I don’t know her but I can tell that this photo that she has a story unknown like everyone else’s

Judge: I think this photo could have been better in the sense of removing her blemishes. Yet that’s also what I love about it, its not fake its the real her. The wind in her hair gives the photo an empowering look and her eyes seem determined.
