Task two and three Part two Unit 57 Photography


In photography there are uses of formal elements that make picture for instance   there is line, tone, shape, texture, composition and perspective. With photos and these formal elements photos are defined on the way the picture is taken for instance with the picture it deals with the depth and vantage point of the photos including the rules of their in a photo with capturing the deceive moment.

Rule of thirds- is a compostional tool for making phootographs more dyanmic. You can see the rule of thirds in a dslr. The idea for it is to frame your subject along the lines that divide the image patocualry main sibejcts usually placed on the insterction point which is the hot sports. Using rules of third makes you look at several good aspects of the photo.

 

 

 

 

Ethics-

Ehtical defination- set of moral princoples relatng to right and wong in terms of conduct or profession. Adbiding by the rules  of standards of a code of pratice of  a profession.

 

The desive moment- of the gentlemen on the bike who has been captured just before he dispears onto another road around the corner.


There are different types of lines used in photoogrpahy with instance horzontial lines, vertical lines, diagonal lines. Horziontal lines are easily read from left to right, often the most dominant, gives the viewer a snese of calm and stabilty, carefully align a strong horizontlal line with the edge of the frame.

Lines-

Vertical lines can express stretgnth and power and and can carfully align a strong vertical line with the edge of the frame.

 

Digonal lines- can be the most dyanmic, creates an impression of movement, consider combining with diffferent viewpoints eg arerial.#

 


Horizontal, diagonal and vertical lines

Vatnage points make  a picture have menaing on a subject for instnace the high vantage point can make the viwer feel dominant and can make the subject appear weak and submissive. The low vnatage points can make the viewer feel weaker and submissive and can make the subject appear more dominant. Aerial or virds eye vantage point can give you an overview of the local area as if tyou are floating abovve the city.


Depth is a techinque where you can use depth in phtoogrpahy in depth of field whcih is contorlled by the aperture an opening in the lens a small f number will you sjallpwe dephth of field whilst a larg f number will give you a deeper depth of field.

War photography is a very intresting type of photogrphy because it captures death actually happening. Death is often portrayed why showed threw war photography why it’s a shock to see how close you good be to see death or war as seen below= war phootgrpahy is actually my favourite type of phootgrpahy because it captures a lot for isnatnce raw material that shows real emotion and nothing staged

Universal software file type

 

Jpeg disadvantages- compresses the file size meaning that some of the day is discarded lowering the quality but you won’t notice this till you start to edit the file. Contain 8 bits so it can be limited one you start editing the files. The format does not support transparency and in case of drawing templates.
