Critique of Aaron Siskind

Aaron Siskind is known for his abstract photographing with “The Most Crowded Block” being my favorite. The phot shows the streets of New York and the Hard working part of it. This photo shows the contrast of the lights and the different factors of white and black lighting. This picture looks in real time because of all the factors. although it doesn’t have color you can see different shades and the slightest detail like the watermelon lines even the wrinkle in the clothing.

Camera modes

automatic mode-

Auto mode tells your camera to use it’s best judgement to select shutter speed, aperture, ISO, white balance, focus and flash to take the best shot that it can.

Portrait mode-

Portrait mode automatically select a large aperture which helps to keep your background out of focus.

Macro mode-

Macro mode lets you move your closer into your subject to take a close up picture.

Landscape mode-

Land scape mode sets the camera up with a small aperture to make sure as much of the scene you’re photographing will be in focus as possible.

Sports mode-

Sports mode attempts to freeze the action by increasing the shutter speed.

Night mode-

Night mode is for shooting in low light situations and sets your camera to use a longer shutter speed to help capture details of the background but it also fires off a flash to illuminate the subject.

Movie mode-

Movie  mode extends your digital camera from just capturing still images to capturing moving ones.

Semi automatic mode:

aperture priority mode (a or Av)- Aperture priority mode is useful when you’re looking to control the depth of field in a shot.

Shutter priority mode- Shutter priority mode you select a shutter speed and the camera then chooses all of the other settings.

Program mode (P)-  Program mode gives you control over some other features including flash, white balance, ISO etc.

Manual mode-

Manual mode gives full control over your camera and need to think about all settings including shutter speed, aperture, ISO, white balance, flash etc.

All about me

                   Samantha Garcia is my name. I enjoy many things like off roading while blasting music going super fast; the same feeling I get when I ride my horse while the music is at full blast. When I go off-roading I usually go with family and a couple of friends but nothing beats going by myself with the music I enjoy the most. My horse is like my child although she’s a soon to be mom I love spending time with even if its showing her, riding her, or even just watching her. These are my go to things to do when out doors with friends and family.                                                                                                              Bored, bored is a feeling not a thing there isn’t such thing as bored beside the feeling of it. When I am “bored ” I like to read a good book, go for a refresher, and even sometimes binge watch a movie. I love colleen Hoover books for a good drama and romantic ease. Getting tired when bored is sort of  a  thing sometimes when that happens I just want to lay down but I cant sleep so I put on my favorite shows like Gilmore girls or Criminal minds. Driving with mom while going home from a long day we always tends to end up at Starbucks for there refreshers or even a frap is always the best.                                                                                                                                                                          What I call my addiction is every girls addiction which is shopping shoes and makeup. My favorite stores and I always end up shopping at include of Shien, Fashion Nova and Zara. I also love my clips, and shoes/sandals spending my money on any I see. These things all include the things I enjoy, and love.

 

 

Framing composition

focal length: 18.00   Exposure: 1/160 sec   F: 5.6   ISO: 3200   Manual

 

focal length: 18.00   Exposure: 1/160 sec   F: 5.6   ISO: 3200   Manual     

My composition is strong with the object inside the frame being my focus image. I edited my photograph good but a little. The lighting he build was dark so i just tried to bring out the background colors. What i would do differently if i shot this assignment again was to move the object inside the frame more so it could have stood out more. No, it shouldn’t i’ve seen way better with the frames standing out and the inside popping out.

25 facts DSLR cameras

  1. DSLR Stands for Digital Single Lens Reflex
  2. DSLR have detachable lenses that include a prime and zoom lenses even a kit unlike other cameras
  3. windows garden hose and tanning are all metaphors to determine exposure
  4. ISO stands for International Organization for Standards
  5. number that describes film’s sensitivity to light​ is what ISO is.
  6. high ISO value means the sensor will be more sensitive to light, meaning it will take less light to get the right exposure
  7. more available light = lower ISO
  8. less available light = higher ISO
  9. using the lowest ISO can avoid grain/noise
  10. shutter speed is how long the shutter is open
  11.  ​higher speed to capture fast action photos nicely
  12. ​the shutter speed should be double
    your frame rate
  13. camera shake: occurs with a shutter speed slower than 1/ [focal length] of a second
  14. smaller number actually of aperture which is F0.0 represents a larger opening
  15. larger aperture, shallower depth of field
  16. longer lenses appear to have a shallower depth of field because they are magnifying the subject
  17. Aperture- depth of field
  18. Shutter speed- blur
  19. ISO- grain or “noise”
  20. Full Auto (green rectangle) – camera does everything for you 
  21. A (creative auto– camera does almost everything BUT lets you choose brightness, depth of field, picture style by pressing the Q button
  22. Tv (Shutter Speed priority) – you choose shutter speed, camera chooses appropriate aperture
  23. Av (Aperture priority) – you choose aperture, camera chooses appropriate shutter speed
  24. M (Manual) – you choose everything
  25. A-Dep (Automatic depth of field) – camera chooses aperture, shutter speed combo to get best DOF
