Line

Lines are marks made by a pointed tool: brush, pencil, pen, etc. Lines can vary in width, direction, curvature, length, or color.Shape 

Shapes are formed wherever the ends of a continuous line meet. Geometric shapes such as circles, triangles or squares have perfect, uniform measurements and don't often appear in nature. Organic shapes are associated with things from the natural world, like plants and animals.
Color

Color wheels show the primary colors, secondary colors, and the tertiary (intermediate) colors. They also show the relationships between complementary colors across from each other, such as blue and orange; and analogous (similar or related) colors next to each other such as yellow, green, and blue. Black and white may be thought of as colors but, in fact, they are not. White light is the presence of all color; black is the absence of reflected light and therefore the absence of color.

Value

Value, or tone, refers to dark and light; the value scale refers to black and white with all gradations of gray in between. Value contrasts help us to see and understand a two-dimensional work of art.

Form

Form describes objects that are three-dimensional, having length, width, and height.

Texture

Texture can be rough, bumpy, slick, scratchy, smooth, silky, soft, prickly--the list is endless. Texture refers to the surface quality, both simulated and actual, of artwork.

Space

Space refers to distances or areas around, between, or within components of a piece. Space can be positive (white or light) or negative (black or dark), open or closed,shallow or deep, and two-dimensional or three-dimensional. 

Balance

Balance is the comfortable or pleasing arrangement of things in art. There are three different types of balance: symmetrical, asymmetrical, and radial. The human figure is symmetrically balanced; the same on the left and right side. The tree is asymmetrically balanced; its branches are not distributed equally on each side, but their total weight is balanced left and right. The sun is an example of radial balance; all its rays are equal in length from the center.

Contrast

Contrast is created by using elements that conflict with one another. Often, contrast is created using complementary colors or extremely light and dark values. Contrast creates interest in a piece and often draws the eye to certain areas. It is used to make a painting look interesting.

Emphasis

Emphasis in the focal area of an artwork gives it importance. An artist may stress some elements of the design over others. The eye of the viewer will focus on the area of emphasis or center of interest first, then take in the rest of the composition.

Movement

Movement in an artwork means the artist is taking viewers on a trip through the work by means of lines, edges, shapes, and colors often leading to the focal area. Movement is a visual flow through the composition. It can be the suggestion of motion in a design as you move from object to object by way of placement and position. Directional movement can be created with a value pattern. It is with the placement of dark and light areas that you can move your attention through the format.

Pattern

Patterns are made in art when the same shapes or elements are repeated again and again. Pattern uses the elements of art in planned or random repetitions to enhance surfaces of paintings or sculptures.

Rhythm

Rhythm is the repetition of shapes, lines, and forms. Rhythm is a movement in which some elements recurs regularly. Like a dance, it will have a flow of objects that will seem to be like the beat of music.

UnitY

Unity means that all elements in an artwork are in harmony. Unity brings together a composition with similar units. For example, if your composition was using wavy lines and organic shapes you would stay with those types of lines and not put in even one geometric shape.

avoid merger

I chose this photograph for avoid merger because the car is cut off of the photograph to create awkwardness it the pic

simple

I chose this picture because it is simple and it tells you exactly what to look at

frame

in this photo the bull dozer is framing a the photo an makes you focus on that point

lines

the lines of the repackage  points the the men cutting part of the building to get to the what there looking for

the rule of thirds

i put this picture as RULE OF THIRDS because your  focusing on the falling man taking his life 

balance

I chose this pic because the twin tower are perfectly centrical in size shape and they look the same like replicas

PHOTO MANIPULATION AND ETHNIC

this article was made by Mark M. Hancock is a Dallas-based freelance photojournalist and book editor.and the article is telling u that photo shopping is wrong because it is very misleading and it could be intimidating.if u publish a photo that is photo shop that is intimidating and the people that you are trying to intimidate find out your probably gonna be in big trouble.you can't have many  jobs in photography  based on photo shop because a basic principle of photography is to not lie

NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC WARM UP

this is my favorite picture because i have never seen this animal before.I think this animal is kind on rare because of its eyes.
I don't think not meany animals have different eye colors.



I would take a pic of the globe

 I  think  his  red  pic  is  spot  on
the metel pic looks futuristic

I think on his happy pic she doesn't  look very happy

The 1968 Olympics Black Power Salute: African American athletes Tommie Smith and John Carlos raise their fists in a gesture of solidarity at the 1968 Olympic games. Australian Silver medalist Peter Norman wore an Olympic Project for Human Rights badge in support of their protest. Both Americans were expelled from the games as a result.

camera parts

shutter. device of a camera that opens and closes allowing light coming through the lens to expose a film

exposer.  the amount of light to fall in each area

depth of felid. distance between the nearest and farthest objects the appear sharp in an image

aperture . a hole or an opening through which light travels

f-stop the setting of an adjustable lens

focal length how strongly the system converges or diverges light

Camera Histoy

1.The effect came to be known as the "camera obscura" which is Latin for "dark room". This was the first camera. The hole acted like a lens, focusing and projecting light onto the wall of the dark chamber.

2.In the 17th century, the modern camera came one step closer when Isaac Newton and Christian Huygens perfected the understanding of optics and the process of making high quality glass lenses.

3.Then in 1827 Joseph Nicéphore Niépce added the final touch. He added *film* to create the first successful photograph, and the modern camera was born

4.Light passes through the lens, into the camera, and exposes the film. And guess what? The end result is still a photograph.

5.cameras capture the images with an electronic sensor called a CCD.

6.Auto The camera will completely control flash and exposure/Program automatic-assist, just point and shoot.

7.Portrait To attempt to blur out the background,

8.Sports To freeze motion, camera will use the highest shutter speed possible.


9.you should use the half bottom because its
faster camera response time
more control over focus
encourages better composition

10. The symbol means "no flash". There are many cases where you may not want flash at all. The mood of the photograph can sometimes be more dramatic when the natural light is used.

11. The symbol means "auto flash". In most camera modes, Auto-flash is enabled by default and will automatically fire if the camera thinks it needs more light.

12. If there is too much light, the picture will be washed out.

13. If there is not enough light, the picture will be too dark.

14. The term "stop" is used in every aspect of photography to represent a relative change in the brightness of light.

15. 1 stop brighter

16. 2 stops brighter.

17. A longer shutter speed has more light.

18. A shorter shutter speed has less light.

19. Before light reaches film, it must pass through an opening called an "Aperture". The aperture is like a pupil. You can control the aperture by setting the "Aperture Opening", also known as an F-Stop.


20. Smaller F-stops numbers = larger openings. Larger openings = more light.

MASTER OF BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOGRAPHY

first photos best and worst

the best:I think this is the best pic I took because I took the pic when she was ready and i timed it perfectly 

worst:This is the worst pic I took because i accidentally took the pic.Also because it was crocket ands he's at the bottom of the screen
