4.) My favorite blog post from this year was the color and lining group photos.
My Favorite Blog Post Of The Year

The three reasons why this was my favorite blog post was because
-I was meeting a group of new people and learning to work with them
-I can look back at this and see how we look now, and also how we have changed with our style of posing for portaits
-The assignment was really helpful for me and learning how to edit color in a photo
I liked these photos because we all stood out with our colorful choice of clothing.

5.) My favorite photo from the semester.

The three reasons i like this photo would be

1. The perfect timing of the snap to catch him about to come off the wall.

2. It was a clear background no trash, no people, so no interruption's during a great photo.

3. The fact that i was watching someone with a torn acl run up a wall and catching it on camera was great.

6.) My best photo from the semester
Three reasons why.
-I caught a great photo and was able to get lines in the background on the cement, and even on the tables
-Did an awesome job of learning to work the blur controls of appeture to make sure all eyes are on my work and not the background
-Matched the theme of which i edited the picture with the way the picture looks. so because she had her head down and her hands dangling helpless, i used a more dark and gray approach to the photo to base it as if her emotions were feeling gray and dark.

7.) Three advantages and disadvantages of working in a group are
ADVANTAGES
-You can get to know your group well which makes great longtime friends
-If you have trouble with anything you can count on members to help you
-There is a better chance of getting a better grade and better results of effort with more than 1 person

DISADVANTAGES
-If one thing goes wrong for someone or their actions it goes wrong for the whole group
-Sometimes not everyone agrees on something which is not healthy for the group
-If someone has a concern that not everyone else does it can hurt the friendship of group members with that one person

8.) Picture Perfect

9.) Henri Cartier-Bresson knew his photos were good from these 3 alignments:

10.) I checked all spelling and formats.

11.)

12.) In the second semester off campus projects would really be interesting to me.

First Semester Final Group Project

I like this picture because it is different and she was off balance during the picture, but it still came out cool.

I like this picture which happens to be my favorite because she is posing like a superstar getting ready to perform.

I like this picture because its a very happy enviroment seem like around her and she is flexing her muscles.

This picture is cool as i capture a group member participating in what is the biggest thing in the world today(technology) and i love how although its sunny if you look closely you can see the light from the phone reflect off his fingers.

This is a good picture and i like it because they are expressing themselves in different ways such as silly and happy.

My two favorite photo's are posted to my website at http://dstrait.weebly.com/

Masters Photos- Philipe Halsman

Philipe Halsman was born in Riga, Latvia may 2 1906. He became an American portrait photographer after moving to New York in the early 1940's. He was accused of murdering his father in 1922, he was pardoned and released in 1930. Halsman went on to take photos of many well known people including Albert Einstein, and former U.S. President John F. Kennedy. Along his journey of becoming one of the greatest photographers he achieved plenty magazine covers and published a couple of books. He was a fan of making his clients jump during pictures because, when a person jumps the mask falls off and the real person appears. He gave the name jumpology to the photos in which people were jumping.

My group was inspired by Philipe Halsman because of the great technique he used when taking pictures, which is "jumpology."
