Assignment SIX (March)

Jeri asked me to be in charge of this month's lesson! So, I am using as my inspiration JinkyArt. The assignment is about perspective: create a two photo panel depicting two perspectives of the same moment/setting. One picture should be from whatever angle/perspective you'd usually use. For me, my child's face is often the focus, or at least their body, so one picture would be of that while the other picture would be something different/quirky/from a different perspective. I found some examples on Jinky's webiste to inpsire us :) Good luck! I can't wait to see everyone's ideas! It would be fun if you wanted to do more than one - up to three would be awesome!

KJ Cool Colors Assignment



Blue: f3.2 1/320, 50mm, exposure -.3


Green (ok yellow-green): f2.8 shutter 1/160 50 mm exposure -.7


Can't decide which purple one I like best: F1.4 shutter 125 50mm exposure +.3

F1.4 shutter 125 50mm exposure +.3



My shadow picture that I never did. I like this because the shadows of Steve, myself and Naomi swinging are also in the photo. f4 shutter 1/1600 50 mm exposure +.3
Oh and my photo inspiration is my old coworker Max Franz. He was one of the photographers at my newspaper. I used to cover news events with him. I would look at his pictures and be amazed at what he could capture... especially when I could imagine what my photos of the same event would have looked like - boring and washed out. I think his photos first showed me that you can capture the emotion or nostalgia of an event in a detail, when you know what you are doing. And they showed me the possibilities of photography. His Web site is http://photomaxllc.smugmug.com/. Some of his photojournalism pictures were for stories I wrote.

We will be meeting at the church on Tuesday March 17th. The weather is not warm enough to meet at the park.
