                   1. the best shot of this assignment was the black void with the person grabbing on to the                                                    cloth in the back with the formed wrinkles
                   2. The weakest picture of this assignment that i thought needed improvement was
                                                          the picture with the mask

                      3. i think the image that was the weakest needs to be improved by making better
                                                                 editing details

                      4. i used Photoshop and light room to edit my photo to create a better view. i used
                                                     the light room in order to brighten up my color

                      5. i met the goals for this assignment by creating a pose or view from the cloth
                                                     and focusing all the light in the back

                      6. the easy thing about this assignment was just snapping the shot that you wanted to                                                                      get it in your own way

                      7. the difficult thing of this assignment was choosing what specific pose that you                                                                 wanted to get when behind the cloth

                                    8. i would like to change up the way that i edited the photo to put more color                                                                                in the back

                         9. i would rate my effort as dull and unresponsive for not doing it sooner
                                             my grades had dropped doubled then i thought.
                         besides all of the wrongs i think i tried my best in taking the shots 

texture

                   


                                                                           Ansel Adams


 1. The photography that Ansel masters in is a lot similar to landscape and nature.

2. The way that Ansel brings out the texture in his pictures are by the lighting and the
angling of his camera and by shadowing most of the lively parts in the photos he takes.

3. my honest opinion on his work is relating to some of the pictures that i like to take and
the way he takes them gives off meaning and a story to the lighting. i believe that his photography reaches out to most people and relates to them.

4. I feel this way about his photos mostly because of the memories that i can  relive just by examining it. His photos are amazing and show more meaning to any photo i have seen so far, he relates to me in most ways that others cannot and the lighting that he uses allows me to feel peaceful vibes.

                                           sharpness and provides multiple stories that can
                                                      relate to multiple people in many ways

                                                                          Simplicity
                                            This photo symbolizes simplicity for its basic color

                                                                            horizon.

                                                                           concentration

1. I Chose the picture that i took of the deceased bird as my best picture because i feel that i can relate to it and feel the vibes that it gives off

2. I feel like the worse picture in my assignment would have to be the picture of the water machine, not only because i cant feel the vibe but also because it is bland and boring to me

3. The worse picture that i have right now can be improved on in the future by adding some light to it and finding a better meaning for it.

4. I used light room to find the best color and lighting for my photo and i felt as if i didn't  need Photoshop because my pictures where all natural and meaningful.

5. I was able to meet the objectives and goals of the assignment by following the information given and by following by the points to ponder method.

6. The thing that i found easy about the assignment was finding my own vibes for the pictures that i took. I found it easy to take my pictures because of my creative and imaginative mind

7. If i can retake this assignment i would like to change some of the pictures i took and make sure that i carefully follow every direction for "points to ponder" so that i would have no worries on my grade for the pictures.

8. I base my effort in this assignment as an 8-10 only because some of my photos had no meaning and no color to explain for.

the difference between snap shot and an artistic photo is that an artistic photo can be seen in different ways and can reach out to people in feelings or emotions. a snap shot only covers the scenery or a photo that may seem nice to the human eye 

In the photograph " the falling man " it reveals a known thought of death, u may think that you would get hate for taking this picture during the horrible accident that happened that day but instead it had turned into a well known photo that symbolizes peace in some ways. This picture is known as a silent picture where u have very light of thoughts but very timid and dark feelings. in my personal opinion i find the photo a piece of history that may last forever but this piece of history is nowhere near victory, instead this is the history that may leave pain and disparity on that loved ones who have lost there special someone that day. the photo represents silence, terror, and most of all tragedy among the people of this grieving country.
