Journal Assignment 4:

I like the stairs, which i have already photographed and also a picture taken on the second floor looking down on people on the first floor would create an interesting angle for a picture.
I might also take a picture of the quilted rug in the far top right room.

Journal Assignment 5:

I like this picture for its two girls with their totally different personalities captured in the picture. I could take a picture similarly by having a few different people in a natural enviornment and use framing around someone's face to put to focus on one of the person's face.

Journal Assignment 3:

Words that come to my mind: Sneaky, silly, and country.
There are leading lines in the field that make the photo int eresting. I also like how simple the photo is but with just adding the man in the grass it gives it character and makes you think of the words like sneaky and silly.

Journal Assignment 13:

Jim Brandenburg had a 90 day trip where everyday he limited himself to one picture a day and still came back with some of the most beautiful pictures. In my opinion, I felt that Jim Brandenburg did this to make sure he was taking the best possible picture he could. Rather than taking advantage of an unlimited amount of pictures, he would take his time everyday to find the best picture in nature he could possibly take. It probably made him appreciate photography better.

Journal Assignment 12:

This is my favorite picture taken by Jim Brandenburg. I like it for many reasons one of them being how bright the eyes of the animal are. Not only that, but also the use of a shallow depth of field to make the sticks around it's face blurry and to create a frame for the face make it even more appealing.
 

Journal Assignment 11:

Critique of Lines photos:

                  The first photo of mine is a picture of a staircase. It uses lines by the way the stair case curves in a c shape. My second is a simpler photo of a railing at an angle. The print of photo I don't like as much because of its darkness and lack of creativity. But it could have been better if I had used a filter and decreased the exposure time of the photo.
