Technique:Since it was a really sunny day I had to adjust the aperture and the exposure to make sure that the portrait wouldn't be over or under exposed.
Tools and Equipment: DSLR Camera, model(s), and props (eg. trees, cups, etc.)
Trials and Tribulations: We had to experiment a lot with lighting because of how sunny it was out that day. So a lot of the pictures came out over exposed or under exposed because we didn't fix the aperture enough or we would over correct.

Painting with light
Technique: Set the camera for a long exposure time and move the light in "strokes", like a paint brush, where you want depending on how you want the light to appear in your photograph.
Definition: Light painting is a photography technique in which designs or words are made by moving a hand-held light source using a long exposure time.
Tools: DSLR Camera, Tripod, and different types of lights.
Ideas: Writing my name, drawing a heart, drawing an infinity sign, etc.

Camera Raw
I increased the exposure.
I increased the reds, oranges, and yellows.
I increased the number of pixels, it would be clearer.
I darkened my finger a little bit to draw focus more towards the flame.

Photographic Composition Examples
Fill Frame:
This is a good example of fill frame because there is very little extra space where there is no flower.
Visual Balance:
This is a good example visual balance because it follows the rule of thirds and leading lines with the lightning.
Vertical Composition:
This is a good example of vertical composition because if it was horizontal, the tower would be cut off and it fills all of the frame.
Rule of Thirds:
This is a good example of rule of thirds because it is lined up with the "grid".
Leading Lines:
This is a good example of leading lines because the boardwalk makes your eyes go straight towards the light house.
Horizontal Composition:
This is a good example of horizontal composition because it is a good use of the horizontal space and not all of this would have been captured if it was vertical.

Comparing Aperture and Scene Modes
The aperture mode photo has a larger aperture than the scene mode which means the lens is letting more light in. In night mode,
and the shudder speed is faster so there is better clarity of the match
and fire of the Night mode photo. The ISO of the Aperture mode is
larger, but that it because the entire large picture needs to be clear
unlike the night mode where only the flame and the match need to be
clear.

Photography Goal
Photographer: Iain Crawford
Style: Beauty and Fashion
Reason: I chose Iain Crawford's photography because I liked the idea of combining beauty and fashion photography with motion photography with paint and water.
