Post Shoot Reflection

1. What challenges did you encounter while trying to get the photos of your first 4 prompts (Square, Metal, Happy, Bowie)

There were some challenges with finding squares. The only squares we could find were in the pit and it was hard to find other squares that were really unique. None of the other topics were as challenging as squares.


2. What technical aspects of photography or the assignment in general (focus, framing, holding the camera, etc.) did you find yourself thinking about the most? Provide a specific example of what you did to do this correctly.


 The focus of the photo was what I was found thinking about the most. An example of that would be when I took a picture of Hannah's hand and the flower. The focus on the flower and her hand hovering over it was the big picture of the photo.



3. If you could do the assignment again, what would you do differently now that you know some basic rules of photography?


I would focus on the rule of thirds and the placement of Hannah, like where she was standing. I would also focus on the lighting and the balance of the figures that I caught in photo.


4. What things would you do the same?


I would keep, of course, my style of photography and the artsy side of it. The rules really changed how I took my photos though so now I see photography from a whole new perspective.


5. Finally - go back and edit your blogs with the 4 photos (square, metal, happy, Bowie), tell me what rules of composition (which you just learned about) did you end up actually achieving? Did you have any?


I did end up achieving the rule of thirds and with one of the photos with Happy and the girl in the photo is in the right corner of the photo.


6. Are you interested in shooting those same prompts again, why?


Probably, now that I know the rules and how to shoot photos the correct way, it would be fun to shoot knowing the rules. Making the photos better is what I want to do.
