2nd Nine Weeks Assignment 10

1. Five ideas that would make me a better photographer
-Using emotion
-Being able to stand harsh elements
-Waiting for the perfect shot
-Always think outside of the box
-A good shot can come from nowhere

2. My favorite photographers were the ones who went into the woods for shots. They had to go through countless hardships and insects just to get shots. They are very much dedicated to their work, and I think that is great.

3.

This was my favorite photograph. It is my favorite because I know how they got the shot, and how they had to get right next to the cheetah to get it. I also like how it is making eye contact.

4. Yes, one was the rule of thirds, which is used in the shot above. The cheetah's eyes are a third from the top and a third from the side. Another was depth of field. That is also used in the short above, because the outside parts are not focused, but the cheetah is.

To go against lighting, you must first take a light meter reading. Then you have to go against it by making the shutter speed one or two steps faster, to create dramatic lighting. You can also do the same thing close to the subject, and then move back and take the picture.
