Collages

Just a few {well more than a few actually} collages of my work for this assignment...
Click them to see them on my flickr account. :)

Storytelling Aperture

Storytelling aperture is when you capture a story your photography. When you are going with a 'storytelling composition', the single picture captures the story. The foreground is the beginning, the middle-ground is the middle of the story, and the background is the end of the story. He also talked about the beginning of a story, avoiding empty foreground by moving in close to the foreground. and lastly Peterson talked about 'short stories' using a telephoto lens instead of a wide-angle lens to tell a story in a sharp, front-to-back, image. 

...just a few more images,  not really with the topic of this post... but more can be found HERE.

"Learning to See"

For this assignment, we had to read from our Peterson's Field Guide on the section titled 'Learning to See'. This section contained artist portfolios going over various lens uses, positioning, shooting, and seeing themes. I loved the images captured throughout this section, especially when they showed the first pic verses the one using the method spoken about on that page, it really shows the difference in what has been captured and at times completely changing the composition, for the better, in my opinion. Oh, and I now know what a fish eye lens is! :)

...just some pics, but you can see more HERE.
