Prompt Shoot 4

Prompt Shoot 4

Reflection in front of a big window of glass.


This one is very simple but i have written words and, this was on the side of an electrical box.


I found some colorful and cool art outside of Ms Le'Junes class room and i decided to use it for color pop.


This was the highest point in the school that i could shoot from and i wanted to use this photo for looking down.





This one is a combo it has something in my hand and a new years resolution,  which is to not catch coronavirus.

Part 2 Shutterbug Websites

Part 2 Shutterbug Websites


The Website i chose was Reading the Pictures.  I think just by getting a first look at the website can already tell that this about news going on around the world, like when i first opened it up i saw pictures of Australia on fire and political stuff.  So basically Reading the Pictures intentions are to inform people, show and spread news about current thing going on around the world.

They write about news articles and current things that are happening or recently happened, for example along side the picture of Australia that i saw i also saw that they were showing pictures and writing captions about the pope hitting a woman and Mitch Epstein's pipeline activist or Christmas props where Jesus, Mary and Joseph were in cages to prevent the decorations from being stolen,  so in general they just write about news and informing people.

I bet your average viewer can get everything from what camera's and who took the picture all the way to getting a whole news article about something like the Australian fires so they know whats happening.

I probably will add Reading the Pictures to my bookmarks so i can check it and see well taken and interesting photo's while also reading about whats happening in the pictures,  I also like it because it's a non political news source it focus's  on more important things.

I would recommend this website to anyone because its a fair easy and simple way you can find out about whats going on around the world because i would consider it a new source, so yes i did like the website and i would recommend it to anyone who's interested in photography or global news. 

Selfies and Shutterbug Websites

Part 1 Selfies and Shutterbugs



1. What is a selfie ? A selfie is a self portrait picture taken on a smart phone.

2. A self portrait is a is a picture of you or some one taken with a nice camera and usually takes a lot more time and effort.

3. With a selfie you can take a picture of your self with a filter on and call it done in ten seconds,  now with a self portrait you usually try to make the picture serious and professional,  also when taking a selfie its usually on a smart phone but with a nice self portrait its taken with a nice camera and is more time consuming.

4. I prefer taking a nice serious self portrait because i think taking a picture of your self could turn out so much better if you use a high quality camera, plus i think the fact that you can use filters while taking a selfie is very cheesy.

5.  Usually self portraits are more valuable because when you spend more time on something you appreciate it a more, you can take three hundred selfies with your friend or you can take ten good self portraits and personally i would choose the self portrait because i would rather have nicely taken pictures instead of silly ones, but that's just my preference.

Phobia's

Phobia's

A.  What is a phobia, a phobia is an extreme or irrational fear of or aversion to something.


B. Herpetophobia: The fear of creepy crawly things.
     Necrophobia: The fear of rotting corpses.
     Homophobia: The fear of homosexuality or becoming homosexual.
     Selachophobia: The fear of sharks.
     Thanatophobia: The fear of death or dying.


C. I think something i will try for this project is to try to shoot pictures that show the fear of heights, i think something ill do for this is taking a picture of something high up and looking straight down.

Im also going to try to capture the fear of death, a way i might do this is by capturing a photo of my model and making it look like a crime scene to show this phobia.

A phobia that i definitely want to try to shoot is the fear of satan and demons, for this ill probably end up using red lights extreme lights and face paint, i think ill try to make it look like a demon or satan is in the room with you.


D. Some photographic techniques ill try to use are background, lighting, and depth of field, all of these for different phobia's

2019 Recap

2019 Recap

Smoke and flames rise from Notre Dame in Paris on April 15. The city was in flames months before the blaze at the cathedral. Protesters enraged over President Emmanuel Macron's economic plans had smashed storefronts and vandalized ATMs. But the smoke that filled the sky that day seemed to give the beleaguered city a sense of unity. Soon, another took hold: how to rebuild?
This photo shows so much and i think the reason i like it because it brings emotion to the viewer, you can obviously tell that this is in Paris with the Tour Eiffel in the background and Notre Dame on fire.




President Trump steps into North Korea as Kim Jong Un waits in the Demilitarized Zone, in Panmunjom, on June 30.
I like this photo because it was such a big step in American history and progress for our country, with out the caption it looks like a man stepping over a curb but knowing that Trump entered North Korea and they were able to capture it is really cool.






An image released on April 10 reveals the black hole at the center of Messier 87, a massive galaxy in the nearby Virgo galaxy cluster. This black hole resides 55 million light-years from Earth and has a mass 6.5-billion times that of the Sun.
I like this picture because it shows that something else is out there and waiting to be explored, personally i find space very fascinating and thats why i find this photo to be so cool.





Image result for earfquake

Personally i think the best song of 2019 was Tyler, The Creator's Earfquake, The song was released on May, 17 2019 along with his album IGOR, I thought the album and song are very special because it was out to the public three days after my birthday and i thought that was really cool.  Earfquake is one of the songs that has many samples on it, therefore Earfqauke is the best song of 2019.







Image result for the rise of skywalker
In my own idea Star Wars Rise of The Skywalker was the best movie of 2019, the reason being is that it is a sequel to Solo which was another really good movie, but i was so happy to find out what happened after Solo, I also like how at the end of the movie they left you with a cliff hanger which means that they will probably make another movie to sequel Rise of The Skywalker.






Slide 9
I though the most important new story of 2019 was the burning of Notre Dame Cathedral, because something so old can be destroyed by something as little as a cigarette, i also have a very strong connection to Paris because i love everything about it the music, art, and the language and to see something like this happen is very sad, because it means a lot to me, thats why i think its the most important news story of the year.










Image result for trump
I think the most important person of the year was President Donald Trump, he did so much for our country this year other than starting conflicts with Iran, our president has done great things and more to come, thats why i think President Trump should be the person of the year.






Image result for usa world cup 2019
The Athlete of the year was a whole team and that was the womens soccer teams, personally i had no interest in this but im glad they won and gave the United States of America more recognition, They deserve the athlete of the year award.








Image result for marfa
Over the break me and my family took a trip to Marfa Texas, i really liked it because the whole little town had so much art and it was just a really cool place to visit.




My 2020 resolutions are to try harder in school and get better grades and be more organized.

Something i look forward to in 2020 is this summer because we dont have school and i get to chill with my friends.
