MT's digital photos

 In this assignment I decided to make my theme into dice. From a numbered keyboard to the millennium falcon and even to a piggy bank. As I love dice, I decided to make dice the hero of my pictures. Dice represent chance and what is life except work and chance.  This photo shows dice and how they can be the hero of a picture. This project was very fun and meaningful.

Annie Leibovitz Annie Leibovitz is a photographer who takes many portraits. She is most well known for taking pictures of celebrities that are in an intimate pose. She took the last photo of John Lennon before his death. She also took other portraits such as one of the Sopranos and one of Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen. When Annie Leibovitz was young she had to move around constantly. Annie Leibovitz recently has made a masterclass on photography as she is one of the best and most influential female photographers in the world. Annie Leibovitz’s style is greatly influenced by her first photo. She was also influenced by Robert Frank and Henri Cartier-Bresson one year after she had taken studies in 1970 at the San Francisco Institute of Art she managed to get on the cover of the Rolling Stones Magazine. A mere two years after she got on the cover of the Rolling Stones Magazine she became the chief photographer for that magazine. She held that position for ten years until she decided

In this assignment, I learned what a self-portrait is and how to accomplish one. A self-portrait is of yourself but does not focus primarily on your face like a selfie does. Additionally, I took the first selfies I had in a long time. Making selfies is not something I do often and excluding this assignment I probably took less than 10 selfies in the last five years. This experience, while normal to must people felt odd to me and taught me more about why people love taking selfies and could take 25000 selfies in their life. https://www.fotor.com/app.html#/collage/d5731a20-7f6b-11ea-88f1-f949faf48132/classic

During this project, I was forced to use my phone instead of an actual camera. While the pictures that the camera makes take longer, they also allow you more freedom in the picture. For instance, the light on the china blocks the images. Both of the pictures were made using shapes and colors while only the china used lines and the rule of thirds. These pictures were shot from different angles and while editing, the pictures were cropped and the colors such a saturation were changed. Additionally, looks were used and the china also has a frame.

In this assignment I decided to take pictures of a french Omelet. This Omelet is difficult to make but is done slowly which allows many photos to be taken. In this assignment I made sure to fashion the food, even if that meant that it would take a lot longer. In this assignment the eggs were perfectly done to enhance the photo and to create a moist inside.

In this assignment I took a location and made it the star of my photos for a few pictures. I took pictures which I do not normally find. The first picture of a foot "stepping" on plants showed me that photos could be reproduced or faked very well. I relearned the usefulness of showing items up close and the amazingness of nature's close up beauty.
