Mixed Lighting

shutter speed 1/800

light used: light from the sun pointing from the right side of the photo and there is a light used at naval level pointing up towards the face. it was about 2 feet away from him.






the emotion i tried to capture was being happy and relaxed, i did this by asking the subject to stand and just relax, i took alot of pictures of him and then he started to laugh this picture was the last one before he busted out in laughter which i believe shows him being the most relaxed and happy.

Painting With #Light

shutter speed 15 seconds

half way through the exposure i turned the red light on for 1 second

had someone walk around with green flash light on their belt and flash light to outline




shutter speed 15 seconds

half way through the exposure i turned the red light on for 1 second

just used the flashlight






while taking these pictures i tried to capture a feel of inanimate objects by outlining them and trying to add a flow in between them,  the purpose of the green light was to add more colour and a third element so the focus isn't just on the vents. i decided to turn the red lights on half way through to add a background colour and so that you could see whats going on in the room instead of the light being the only thing you see

i tried to capture the image when they weren't completely ready like in the last 2 picture they aren't smiling nor are they even looking at the camera, in the first picture the pose was not planned it was spontaneous and captured britt looking at the camera and adam not really knowing what was going on. 

Robert Capa

Robert was a famous war time photographer who covered five different wars through his pictures. i admire Robert because he took a very uncommon approach to his pictures. unlike other war time photographers that would take their pictures from a safe distance Robert would get right in the action often going in the trenches with the soldiers to capture the perfect shot. i like this trait about him because he is willing to risk his own safety to execute his plan and his dream picture and make it come to life. the way he took his pictures really makes you feel like you were apart of the war and seeing it through the eyes of someone who actually fought as the pictures were taken from in the action. because of all the risks that Capa took to get the right picture he is one of my favourite photographers. to learn more about Robert click here.  one of Roberts photos
