This is my favourite decieve picture. This is because there is half a car which is blurred as its moving quite fast and there are some people crossing the road. This is my favourite picture that i took about decieve moments. In this picture there are six people half a car and half a van. There is quite a lot of colour in this picture.








In this picture, a train is coming to a stop at the train station so people can get on and off. This is my second picture and its urban nature. We took this picture whilst standing on the bridge that goes across to the other platform. i like this picture because the train is just stopping and its a bit of a decieve moment.





This is my final favourite picture because its a funny portrait of me. We took this in the grounds at college. I like it because its a decent picture that has enough light and colour.

These are the other two pictures that i chose to put up on my blog. The first one is of a loyalist soldier being killed in the Spanish civil war. The second picture is of D-day where the American soldiers are dashing forward to cover under fire.

Robert Capa, war photographer notes

Robert Capa was a journalist in the front line, taking pictures of the troops in action. He was the only photographer that took part in the first wave on D-day. Capa had risked is life hundreds of times but when he was taking pictures of the Vietnam war, he accidently stepped on a land mine and died aged 40. I like this picture because it shows some American GI's taking cover from German fire.

A decieve moment is a picture taken at the right place at the right time. Some photographers waited hours to get a decieve picture.

photography notes

Things i have learnt about photography with Ansel Adams.
I learnt about the golden third. The golden third is the middle third. This is normally the most important part of the picture, especially when its landscape. Its important because normally it contains the most amount of information.

In this picture the golden third is the mountain in the middle.

Ansel was a photographer from the USA. He was born on February 1902 in San Franisco. He died in April 22nd 1984. The three thirds were drawn by pen on the picture.

For my picture and clicked on filter and clicked on brush sketches. I then changed the black and white intensity. I like this picture as it makes me look like a ghost or that its in night vision. For my second picture, I clicked on filter and then sketch. I then made it look like water paper. After that I then changed the different intensitys.






For my third picture, I clicked on filter and then neon glow. I then chose the differnt intensitys to make it look better.


on the fourth picture, I clicked on filter and then on stylize. I then chose glowing edges and changed the intensitys.

Photography notes on shutter speed and aperture

I took some notes down today about the shutter speed and the aperture.
I found out that the slower the shutter speed then the more light gets let through into the image.
The faster the shutter speed then the less light that gets let through.
The slowest is 1 second to 5 seconds or more, the fastest is 1/1000 of a second.

The aperture is the opening on the lens it controls the amount of light that hits the film.
The aperture sizes range from 2.4 (lowest) to 22 (highest).
