Shooting Assignment # 2
A Bird's Eye View

As of right now in my life, I am a student, an intern and a nanny at the same time. This photograph is of one of the kids I nanny for, Clara. Here, we were attempting to take off her "basketball shoes" in the mud room of her house after playing outside in the garden.

In-Motion Photograph

This photo was taken at the Downer Classic bike race. I really had no idea how to use my camera correctly at the time, however somehow I magically took this picture..!?
F3.2,1/100,ISO 1600 (?)


I admit that these photos were taken in the summer, however I believe both of them fit the assignment criteria well. The first is a silhouette photograph taken at night at and Aperture of ______ and a Shutter Speed of 1600, and the second is a photograph taken the same night (without heightened saturation changes) at an Aperture of ___________ and a Shutter Speed of 1600. I didn't have a tripod for either of these photographs, however I did retake either photograph multiple times to achieve the effect I desired.

F2.0, 1/15, ISO 400

Early morning coffee and a broken rose. I definitely sound like a sappy romantic, but I'm actually somewhat of a big, emotionless dude....who loves roses and coffee.
