What I learned this year was how to do the basic things in photography like how to edit the pictures to seem more bright or black and white. also how there is diffrent type of taking pictres like if I wanted to take a close up of the plants or how its called like micro and that's somthing basic that most of the people know how to do. And how most of doing the portrits are hard to do because they get you in a akward position where you have to ask people to pose for you and they dont know how so you have to push them around. Through out the first year of photography I got to learn how to use photoshop and how I can make silly things look good and how a good picture could be even better then what it actually was. This class helped me see what i like taking pictures of and how the lighting can make a big diffrence to the mood and how the picture is seen by the other people that are there to look at it.

During the secound year of photography I HAVE HAD MORE TIME TO LEARN AND BETTER MY PHOTOGRAPHY SKILLS AND HAVE THE TIME AND PATIENCE TO BETTER THE WAY I EDIT THE PICTURES OR HOW I MAKE THINGS LOOK BETTER AND MAKE THEM STAND OUT MORE. aLSO IV LEARNED MORE ABOUT HOW TO POSE PEOPLE BETTER EVEN THOUGH IM STILL AKWARD IN HOW TO ASK THEM. bUT NOW I KNOW WHAT TYPE OF PICTURES M MORE COMFTRABLE DOING LIKE DOING MORE OF NATURE AND STREET SIGHNS THAT TO MY OPINION IT LOOKED BETTER THEN ANYTHING THAT I DIDI BESIDES THEM. aLSO THAT IM BAD AT MAKING COLLAGES AND HOW I EDIT THEM THOUGH OUT AND HOW HARD IT IS TO GET THE IDEAS OF HOW THEY WOULD LOOK SOMEWHAT GOOD AND HOW TO BE SO CREATIVE. ALSO THROUGH OUT THIS WHOLE YEAR I HAVE HAD THE OPORTUNITY TO BE MORE CREATIVE WITTH WHAT I DO AND HOW I COME UP WITH THE IDEAS. LIKE WHEN I WAS DOING THE FACE PAINT I CAME UP WITH THE IDEA WITH A LITTLE HELP BUT IT WAS SO MUCH FUN TO SEE MY IMAGINATION COME TO LIFE ON ITS OWN AND SEEINGT HOW THE PICTURES AME OUT INSPIRED ME TO DO MORE THINGS OUT OF MY CONFORT ZONE AND DO THINGS THAT I WOULDNT DO NORMALY.
WHAT I HAVE LEARNED
What I have learned through this 2 years of being in photography is that anything can be a great opportunity and chance to learn something new and get to see things in a new way and make it t something that beautiful and that other people can appreciate and they can see your dedication and time spent making it the best you ever could. While i took most of this pictures i realized that you can tell how much effort some one puts into their work and if they are good at what they do with out putting the effort that you know they could easily accomplish. The pictures that i appreciate the most are the ones that i know that i tried and took time doing and getting the accomplishment and feeling of doing well could be easily done. Also this class gave me what other classes could the freedom of expressing myself in a different way and in a creative way instead of forcing me to do thing that i didn't think were forced on us. Even though sometimes i didn't have the creativity to do anything i still pushed my self to do something that i never thought that i could like the time that i try and make the collages and that it was so bad that i was so embarrassed to turn in but i didn't have enough creativity to finish it the way that could.
Then after that i decided to take up more challenges that ended u well and they weren't so bad as the first one's i tried on. During this time i had the chance to learn how to photoshop and make ting look great and make something new you of a normal picture and something you wouldn't normally see and making it seem brighter and with colors that you wouldn't normally see out in nature. Then also the fact that things got easier to imagine what they would come out as and getting the ideas was becoming more of something normal. i could see things in a different way that made it seem like i was always just ready to take pictures and what would look good at what angle and if the things were too dark or if they were a little to bright placing things too look nice also became something that i found myself doing. This is why i think taking this class was great and i wouldn't change the experience that i have had in this class for anything and this is the only class that i liked coming to everyday even though we didn't have time to do any photo shoots so thank you Mrs for this opportunity and letting me go into this class and listening to your stories you shared every morning.
