final project.













well thank goodnesss that is over...

sike.

well this is the end of our ter in digital and these are the shot that should have summed up my whole term.
yes i do like them a lot and i think they hold some interesting points that i have picked up over the past couple months...
first of all lets talk about my project. well i was having so brain cramps thinking about what to shoot for my final then i realized the perfect subject is shoes! i own so many of them it wouldnt be hard to find some to shoot. as i got ready for my assignment i becan shooting all kinds of shooes in the boring sort of here is a boring shoe kind of way. then i remembered when i did a science fair project that i was only alowed one variable. as i started to look at my photos they all didnt look uniform. so instead of doing all these random shoes in random like places/set up. i decided for my variable to be a different kind of tennis shoe and that i am going to get up close to my photos so that they kinda make it abstract... and i wanna focus on the details. i think narrowing down my options made my collection more organized ya know?

now the order offf me photos. i know you may think it is a random order. but no...in fact i picked this order because i wanted my strongest pictures to be spread out throught the six.. compared to putting the pictures in like greatest quality to lowest quality. i think som of my photos are like more stronger then the others. although i like all of them its true that i have three that standout compared to the rest. one- i like this picture because it is abstract to the eye and i love how its in focus..and i like the detail in it. the second picture is also about detail... i love the little plastic peice on on the top of the shoe that i really wanted to get in the photo i also love the shoe laces. haha. three- ah one of my favorites. i love this picture because the shoe matches the backround perfectly i also like how in focus it is in like the alligator and also you can see the little holes in the shoe. the shoelaces add something different that we havent seen before! and i love how the shoe is slanted straight up. four- my fourth is a different compared to my other photos, its not as tight. like there is a lot of backround i like this pictures because of the lighting i think it looks really pretty. and also that it's in focus becaus you can read the directions in the back...hah my fifth. this is the picture that i decided to reshoot the first was way not close enough it wasnt tight and it looked stupid. and i went back and shot it and i love it now! my lastttt---- my favorite of all! its so in focused and the pattern of the shoe really makes it. if they were just some plain colored shoe it be way boring but the pattern reallly helps. and i bracketed the crap outta that one and im so so happy that i did!

innnn conclusion... i think these pictures are worthy for summing up my term. the key things i learned aka bracketing, focus, and reshooting skills really paid off without those three componants my photography skills as a whole wouldnt be where they are today...now that i know these though i really would like to improve on some things as well i think i needa get things right the first time. i think thats the main thing i have to work on...because if i actually got this right it would make a world of difference and id have more time because im always doing stuff last minute because of how many times i needed to shoot it. buttttt in alllll i loved this assignment and im gonna miss digital so friggggin much!!!
cant wait for next yearrrr playa
