    The subject matter in the photos I took include a red flower pot, a green riding lawn mower, the back of a chair, a fan, some rocks I have at home, and last but not least box of flowers and vines. The changes I made to each of my photos was mainly brightness and contrast as well as hue and saturation besides that there were not many other changes that I made. The photo I  like the best is the one that I took of the rocks, I like it because it has a good amount of brightness and the wood in the back round looks nice too.  As I did this project I discovered that I am the type of photographer that needs to take lots and lots of photo to get the one I like. I found myself finding something I wanted to photograph but then having to take tons of photos to get the one I liked, but that is not a bad problem. If I could do this project again I would want to take more photos outside. I like nature and think that some photos of the outdoors would have really worked well on this project.

LIne Color and Texture

Color photo
The subject matter is the coke bottles in the picture. The shot angle is an eye level or it could be a close up. The composition is symmetrical it is even pretty much all the way across the photo. It is a good photo because the color really makes it pop.

Line photo
The subject matter is the bridge and ropes through out the photo. The shot or angle is long shot and
the composition is rule of thirds. It is a successful shot because of the pretty landscape and the good angle set up.

Texture photo
The subject matter of the photo is the mud and the rail road tracks. The photo shot type is high angle and the composition is asymmetry. The photo is successful because it makes u think differently then most photos you see and look at now a days.

Learning shots and angles

Birds eye view...
This is a birds eye veiw shot, because it is from directly above. if the angle changed it would be high angle.

Eye level shot ...
This is an eye level shot of this turtle because it is even level with its eyes, if the photo changed it could be zoomed into to a close up.

Establishing shot ...
This is my establishing shot because it is an extreme long shot. If it was changed a little bit such as if it was zoomed in a ways it would be a long shot.  

Close up shot ...
This is my close up shot, and it is a close up because it shows the face from the chin to the top of hair line. It would be an extreme close up if it was zoomed way in like on the panda's nose or eyes.

Symmetry ...
This is my symmetry photo, and it fits that description because it is split perfectly right down the center of the photo. If it was not symmetrical at all and was not rule of thirds it could be asymmetry.

Rule of thirds ...
This photos fits the rule of third category, because it is split horizontally in thirds and vertically in thirds as well, if it was directly symmetrical then it would be a symmetric photo.

Video Response 1

    The video we watched in digital art was a very informative video. It talked about numerous different things from how photos helped in World War 2, to straight photography which was were you keep the image the way you first saw it. It was very neat to see how a simple thing such as a photo really changed the USA. Another cool invention with photography was the invention of the brownie camera, it was a very small easy to work camera with few buttons. It was sold for only a dollar, which mad it very affordable to the every day families. A quater of a million were sold in the America alone!

   One thing that really surprised me was that during WW2 there were no photos of dead soldiers put in newspapers or magazines. How ever with photography there are still a few questions I have like who was the person to decide to put a flash on a camera to perfect the shot? As simple as that seems I am very curious about it.

What is art?

   Art to me is anything from an assignment you get in art class to the symbol on your t shirt to graffite on a building wall. Art in general is anything with a color shape or demention to it, everything around us is art. I see art all over! Such as school, on clothing, out and about on the sides of buildings and train cars, it literally is everywhere!

   Some examples of art are designs on t shirts, or logos for businesses. A few others are murals or common ones like paintings or sculpurtes. To be honest I do not know that much about art, but then again its all kind of a personal preference so everyone has there own opinion and thoughts about it. Coming into this class I not really looking to learn that many different tactics to create art, but more towards just being able to express art in my own way.
