Self Timer Self Portrait

Tips
1. Make sure you give enough time
2. Make sure you're background is good enough
3.Have your subjects in place

Framing

Framing makes the subject appear better. I chose the gates so show Daquan from an outsider point of view. It stood out to me, based off the way the gates are like a barrier. No drawbacks

Action photographs

I believe the multiple shot helped to show the sequence well. The hardest part to me is the timing.

Contrast

This was a staged situation. I used landscape so I could capture the grass well around the football object

Rule of Thirds

I chose the lion due to the reputation of it being strong. I like the way the picture came out. The mode the camera was in night portrait mode

Night Portrait Post

With tripod

Without tripod

The second picture is clearer due to the tripod not being in use. It impacts how much light the photo takes in.

Use of Landscape mode

I decided to take pictures of the white rings, due to the look. The area looked well and the gates in the back added to the feel of the picture.

Landscape Vs. Portrait

Landscape - Landscape mode makes this picture clear. The trees and bushes are clear, as is Mohamed.          









Portrait - Portrait mode makes Mohamed the main focus. His shirt is darker than it was in landscape and the trees and bushes are not as clear as they were in landscape. Landscape would be better to capture a large amount of people                  

Depth of Focus

I took this photo using portrait mode. I was standing near the computer cart and Daquan sat in the last chair of our row. The photo was in focus, but not a huge amount. Daquan's hand is clearly the focus of the picture. The only thing I don't like about this picture is that Daquan's face isn't as blurred as I wanted. The next time we do a project of this nature, I'll make sure to have all the settings the way I want.
