First Portrait Assignment

Your Portrait - A Picture of You

• Is this my photograph? No its not your photograph. Is this my portrait? Its a portrait of you, but its not yours. If one of my students had not given me permission to post this photograph, would I have been allowed to use it? No you cant post anything without permission of the person who took it.

• When is it OK to plagiarize?Its okay to plagiarize when you at least locate the persons name who took the picture, and ask them first. Was Robin Hood a thief? Yes he was a thief. Are pirates thieves?Yes you can say they are because they take items that are not theirs, doing it for a good thing but their still thieves.Are teachers pirates? I dont think teachers are pirates because they dont steal things, I believe.Are pirates good or bad? Pirates can be either good or bad thee world will never know.

• How similar are these three images? Same person, same background, same photographer. Does it matter? Yes it matters because their ediitted differently. If I take one person's photo and I edit the image slightly, does the image become my image? No, its still their photo, but with your touch on it. Who owns the pirate image in the background? The person who owns the picture of the pirate in the background is the person who ever painted it.

• So what to writers do with pictures? Writers write what they see in pictures, like the topic for example, and how was their process while taking pictures.

Favorite Blog Post The following post shown here was my favorite post, because it was when I took my trip to Mexico, the views were breath taking, and I felt very inspired while taking the photographs. I really liked this post because it shows many details in every picture that I didnt know till after taking the photographs. Take a look.

From all the pictures I took in the whole semester, this was my favorite because of so many details included in it.

1.The view/place so peaceful and relaxing

2. The birds were in motion flying with no worries

3. It expresses me because I like to take photographs of the sky

Best photos from the semester These were me best photos because I managed to take them with alot of interest, I love all the things I took a photograph of, and I had in mind the use of lines while having nature surrounding it.

Three advantages while working with a group are you can get work done faster, its less work for a person alone, you can have some one to talk and entertain yourself. Three disadvantages are you have to wait on others to get their work done, they have different opinions, and you have to know how everyones attitude is.

Henri Cartier- Bresson knew when his photos were good by being sure to align the head, take a picture when the shutter would open, and you have to observe and see how things are going like a painter before taking the picture. 

BEFORE

AFTER

The project that interests me during the second semester is to take photographs while in motion, and taking photographs with different colors as well.

 I think Mr. Farley has a Hecka Free Zone because he wants everyone to manage to finish their work and be interested in doing it, and at the same time make it fun.
