In a lesson, we got to do some activities in photoshop, and I decided to write my name like grafitti on a wall. Above is how it turned out. Its actually quite easy after you know how to do it. I also made another one with my face, my name, a locker, and a cabinet lock on a wall.

When we took macro pictures, I thought that the pictures would look quite normal, but I found out that the closer you get to the object the cooler it looks like, because you can see the little details that you normally wouldn't see. Above you can see some of the pictures we took, but I had some technical problems, so Annie the Great had to give me the pictures. I like the eye the most, because you can see the field inside the eye. The way the eye is half closed it gives the whole picture a good effect.

The Dawn of a New Spring

This picture is a really good example of rule of thirds, because the flower isn't exactly in the middle of the picture. It is in the top right corner of the picture. This also demonstrates a good idea of trying to get your picture more in focus, because it is hard to see the flower that well. I sometimes feel like I need glasses when I look at the flower.

This picture shows lines. The lines are the railways, and the wooden cart that has wooden rods in the frame. The picture looks interesting, because everything is a dull color.

I chose this picture, because it shows a pattern. The patterns are the lines on the picture, which are actually lines for blind people to follow.

Solitude

I chose this picture, because the dock is symetrical, and so is everything else on the picture. I also chose this picture, because the black and white gives a good effect to the picture.

Violette

I chose this picture, because it shows the depth of field. It shows the depth of field by showing violette flowers in focus and some that are not in focus,

This is one of my favorite pictures from last 7 days. I chose this picture, because it shows texture, for example the blue part of the flower, and the smoothness of the bee.

Photography

One lesson we got to go outside and take pictures. We learned that a picture can get a good effect, and looks good with the backround out of focus and a subject that is in focus. I think that the picture I took with the bench is really good, because the bench is in focus, but the backround isn't. I also really like the picture with the rock, because it is in focus and the other little pebbles look really good like with the bench. I also think that it looks good because the view widens out starting from the rock and going to all the other pebbles in the back. The second picture didn't work how I wanted it to, because I think I forgot to focus on my subject. The first picture also didn't work well, because I was trying to get the twig into focus and not the rest, but I think that the twig was to small for the camera to focus on.
