Tip # 1
It is saying to upgrade to a better digaital camera if it is 2-megapiel or less. You need at least 5-megapixels or higher.  You should read the owners manual if it is a new camera.
Tip # 2
You should buy some accescerioies for your camera like new memory cards, and extra battiieres (if it takes batteries).
Tip # 3
In a photo create some extra light to add to the photo. Some ways is that you can turn off flash, or use a high ISO setting on your camera, or use a tripod.

Make sure you caputure the best moments. For Christmas, Holloween, or Thanksgiving those are all good times to take pictures.

Lesson 1: Introduction to photography & Assignment

 

Breaking the Rules
This photo is breaking the rules but its in the center, and a wierd angle, and nothing interesting.





Overlapping
These magazines are overlapping eachother. I put together four pictures and placed them on top of eachother. I really like this angle. 

Axial Symmetry
I chose to photograph a book becuase it's a good expample of Axial Symmetry. I like the letters and how they stand out.


Back, Mid, Forground
The back is the way back trees and the field. The mid is the second row of trees and a garden in the right corner. Forground in the photograph is the first tree you see. I chose this picture becuase this is the only one where you can see the three things.


Focal Point
For this picture I put an object in the middle of the picture and the rest of the things in the background blen in to make it stand out and be a focal point.

Filling the Frame
This photograph fills the frame completely. There is very little space that is not being used.

Triangluation
I put three books in a triangluar shape for this picture.


Juxtaposition
In this picture I put a bunch of random objects and arragenged them together and came with this photograph. The lighting makes it look like an older picture.



Interesting Aesthetic
In this picture I took my guitar and put the camera upward and just took a picture. It isn't a normal angle that I usually do so it makes it an Interesting Aesthetic.



Rule Of Thirds
I took a random object and took pictures of it but not in the center. I put it on the 1/3 line. That makes it the Rule of Thirds.




Arrangement
I arranged these three stuffed animals in a line and took different angeled picture and this is one of them.


Radial Symmetry
This picture is a tire, and is is all cirlceling the center of the tire. If you cut it in half it would be the same.
