Photos inspired by Imogen Cunningham

1. Imogen Cunningham was a famous photographer who influnced many other photographers with her work. She was born in portland, oregon. Imogen got her first camera at the age of 18 in 1934 Cunningham was invited to do some work in New York for Vanity Fair. Her husband wanted hr to wait until he could travel with her, but she refused. They divorsed latert that year. Cunningham continued to take photos until shortly before her death at age 93 on June/24/1976

2. Our group was really inspired by Imogen Cunningham's work because the way she took pictures made us admire and see new ways and possibilities of taking photos, portraits. We also liked her nature flower shots and were inspired to try and imitate her shots.

Cropping For Better Composition

The cropped photo illustrates the Viewpoint rule of composition , because it illustrates the idea of rather then just shooting from eye level, you consider photographing from high above, from down low from the sides. this photo shows just that, it creates a different view and perspective of the shot.

Cannon T3i Review

The Cannon T3i is a very good camera, its good qualities that have caught the peoples attention is it delivers excellent video capabilities and image and video quality. Although it has a lot of good features it does have its down side, with the cannon T3i If you shoot both still and video, the T3i's controls can be frustrating to operate, and it's not terribly fast for burst shooting sports, kids, or pets. The bottom line is that for the money it is worth, the Canon EOS Rebel T3i is a great choice for image quality and general shooting performance are top-notch.

 I chose this filter because i like how it contrasted the light in the background and made it look black - x-ray 

 I chose this filter because it shows where the light is coming in from and how it darkens the rest of the picture - Comic book

 I chose this filter because it was funny looking - Stretch 

 I chose this filter because i thought it would be fun to try and make me look normal - Mirror 

 I chose this filter because i liked the filter and how it changed the light -Black and White

Observing light



         As my group and i walked the halls observing light in different aspects of it and in different scenarios. We saw how it changed the picture and how we could use this to our advantage. the light would bounce of lighter objects and be absorbed by the darker. A member of the group walked into the light and let it hit his face, he was wearing a dark sweater, as he put on the dark hood it changed the way the light was reflecting of his face.
