Misc./Extras



Blurrrr Project

For the blur project I only had a few subjects that I chose, and then I applied combinations of different exposure times and aperture settings, so I could see the effects of each one and choose the best of each. 

For this over traffic shot, I liked the 6 and 8 seconds exposure times best. 


^ Exposure Time: 8 seconds ^


^ Exposure Time: 6 seconds ^




^ Exposure Time: I'm pretty sure it was 6 seconds ^

I thought clothes rolling around in a dryer would be a good idea, but it didn't turn out exactly how I would have liked. If I was to do this picture again, I would definitely get some sort of light pointing in or towards the dryer to illuminate the clothes a lot more, to get a better blur effect.

Multiple-Exposure

"Many me's"

For this multiple exposure I had my dog sit in a different spot on the stairs 5 different times. Each time she was looking in a different direction, or doing something slightly different, so it believably looks like a lot of different dogs. 

Classic family portrait-style pose. With me, myself, and I (I is taking the picture).

Self-Portrait Project

For the self-portrait project, I tried to take each picture at a different time, different location, and/or different activity.

Rule of Thirds/Symmetry


The two pictures above are examples of the "rule of thirds"


The picture above is an example of symmetry (balanced proportions; property of sameness)
