Portraits

The artistic portrait I feel was the most successful out of all my portraits.
It was very hard to find good light for my portrait and to be able to ketch the mood of thinking.I choose her ROTC outfit because it was something she felt very strong with and most of all it just states how she is. I feel the area I took the photo at was the perfect spot and she had the perfect attitude towards the photo shot. For the time that we had to take the photos i feel i did very good.

my lest favorite was fill in flash because it was just OK not amazing.
The one I loved was simplicity because it turned out really good, it has great contrast.

compositional Trick #8 Fill in Flash

fill in flash effects my photo by adding light to things in my picture that should have light on them . you can use fill in flash when you are out side and every thing is light except for your person or thing your taking a picture of.

compositional Trick #7 drawing with light

what sets me apart from other picture is that it feels like she is falling in to the leaves and trying to be the tree. the light help create this feeling by having her look like she wants to be the tree but her shirt is the main thing that makes her stand out and keeps her from being the tree.

compositional Trick #6 Framing

I love my pictures of framing. The pictures Just suck you in and make you look at the emphasis. I feel that i could have gave a better angel to the picture with the poles and i also feel that i could have cut the sign out of my other picture.

compositional Trick #5 Extreme Angles

Extreme angles is a very good trick to know only because it makes the pictures more interesting to look at. It gives you a different feeling then as if you would have taken it straight in front of the image.

compositional Trick #4 Simplicity

creating simplicity in a photo helps strengthen the composition only because your not looking all around the picture and all of the other stuff, your just looking at one item. I believe simplicity is a very effective trick.
