I am really really happy with my solarization roll. I had to use photos from a different roll, however, they turned out very well, and I am pretty happy with the effect. I was in low light conditions, and my iso was still a little tricky so i wasnt able to solarize most of the pictures I came up with on this roll.

These are my framing pictures. I thought I did pretty well on these though, I did darken Jay's face a little too much, however, I actually liked the final result. He stands out more, and is framed pretty well in between the bus seats.

I took tghis photo for roll four lines. I took this photo because I liked the road winding off into the distance. I used a small aperature, and a longer shutter speed because it was a dark rainy day. I like how the road draws your eyes to the upper part of the photo, where the top of the hill is.

I took this picture for roll four, lines. I took this picture because i really liked the metal wire criss crossing over and over. The picture has a shallow depth of field becuase i wanted the photo just focused on the wires. This gave the picture much more compisition, and attitude. It focusses your eyes on the grate becuase they are in focus and the sides are not.




These are my photos for roll thirteen. We went to carters mountain, and took a free roll there. I was very pleased with the pictures I took. I needed to use fairly small aperatures and fast shutter speeds, because there was alot of light (it was really bright that day) and the movement of the clouds.

These are my photographs for roll fifteen, dramatic lighting. The last one was my favorite for this roll. I was really happy with that photograph. I had my brother pose for me beside the window, while I adjusted my shutter speed and aperature. I balanced my light meter on the bright side of adam, so the other side would fill in with shadow and cause a bit of dramatic lighting.

For this assignment, we were given a scavenger hunt, and we had to find items that in our minds matched the description of other items on a list. I decided to do this soda top because i liked the way the top captures your attention in the picture. I used a shutter speed of about 1/1000 and an aperature of about f3.5
