Assignment #4 - Motion

Sloooooooooooow Shutter Speed



Using my slow shutter speed, I shot the second hand on a clock and a sliding ketchup masterpiece. These shots worked with a slow shutter speed because neither one is very exciting if you can't see the movement. 


Fast Shutter Speed



For my fast shutter speed pictures, I shot dandelion seeds floating away and pick-up-sticks falling to the ground. These worked because they create an interesting design, especially the pick8-up-sticks.

Assignment #3 High Key/Low Key

These are the pictures that had the "correct" exposure (according to the camera). 








Here are the ones I chose and have edited




This assignment was ... interesting. I found out I don't have very many all white or all black items. I also learned that I don't like the process of bracketing very much. Sure it's helpful and I'm glad I did because the pictures I chose were ones that weren't the "correct" exposure, but I found the process very tedious. Also, I don't really like to take pictures of shiny objects--the reflection gets in the way.
