Architectural Photography

I think all the photos this week turned out so cool. This one is a house or something like that but it was right above a parking lot so I cropped out all the cars, even though it's not the full building i think the focus is still on it. I put a warmer filter on this picture.

This picture is lowkey a silhouette of the building which I kinda like because you can really see the structure of the building 

One the last one I think the sky looks amazing and the contrast of the building just adds to everything. I really like this picture.

MicroPhotography

This is my first picture for close-up photography, it's a dandelion
and I really like the colors. I used the rule of thirds and put the main
focus in the bottom right corner. This picture is kinda different from the
other two because there is a lot of light in this one and the
others are darker.

My next picture I put a reddish filter on using photoshop and I think it came out
pretty good. I also cropped it so it looked closer than it actually was. 

I like my last picture because of all the shadows and that its
basically just one color but it still has dimension.

Sports

The first picture of sports is this person riding a bike. I think it's a pretty cool picture, I like the background and that it's kinda following the rule of thirds. It's not really edited but I feel like it didn't need much to be a good picture.

This picture isn't a person doing sports but it still has something to do with a sport. I like colors in the picture I think the sky with all the clouds looks really cool. I did that by adding more more saturation and contrast.

The last picture isn't really the best but it's just of a person walking around the track, which is exercise so it kinda counts. Anyway I added less brightness and more contrast for this one. 

Real Birds

The first picture is of this bird that I took in Santa Fe, I cropped it to use
the rule of thirds. Other than that I really didn't edit it much so you can see all the
shadows which I like anyway

I really like this picture because it's like a silhouette of a bird. I also like that the sky is kinda cloudy so it adds to the mmld of the picture. 

The last picture is also a silhouette, but this one is of a bird in a tree and I think it looks really cool. I edited it so you could see the greens but that they were still a bit dark.

NIGHT

This weeks blog is all about night as a concept and to me that means light and dark contrasting. The first one is of these Christmas lights and I like that it's out of focus and its contrast.

The next picture I really like. I edited it so that the background would be all black and the only color would be the candle. It's defiantly my favorite on of this blog.

Another part of night is the sunsets that bring the light into the dark. This is what this one is. It's not the most colorful sunset buts it's still really pretty.

Photo Quizzes

On the first quiz I took I'm not exactly sure what my score was but it says I'm a photography pro so I'm going to take that as a good thing. On the second quiz I got 18/22. A lot of the stuff on the quiz i already knew but I learned that every camera is different and therefore every picture is going to be different.

Lonely Tree

All the pictures for this blog are in black and white because 'lonely tree' just sounds really sad so I felt like they all should be black and white. So that's what I did I made all the pictures for this blog black and white and I love the aesthetic of it.

I like this picture because the tree's branches go in so many directions and I think it just adds to the aesthetic of it. Aside from making it black and white I put the most contrast on this picture out of all three.
On the last one I made it black and white again and brought out the shadows of it.
