Depth Of Field

Close -Ups


I chose these pictures for close-ups because they show the textures of the subject.

                                                                            Bokeh

These photographs show the textures close up yet it shows the blurred background to an extent that you don't pay much attention to it.

                                                              Out-Of-Focus Foreground

I personally thought this was fun taking these pictures. Making the fence disappear to show what is beyond it was a very neat technique.

Justin Quinell



I like this photo because it shows you the little thins you do in your everyday life (or should, minus the spider). The interesting things about this picture is the types of objects he uses are neat, like the colour of tooth brush he used (bright green), the tooth past he used (colourful) and the gross, big, long legged spider on the past. All of these aspects really make up the picture.


This photograph is also about those things that you do that you don't think about. Once again the different colours in it make the picture pop! The lipstick on the woman to the lemon on the glass. The straw really makes it though. It looks as if it is coming at you and you are the one about to drink the drink.


This is a different photo from the rest. It is not about the every day things like I have been talking about.  He has now gone out and taken outside pictures. The different thing is that there is no popping out colours out of his mouth, his mouth is the thing now the main subject. You really get a sense of where these pictures are coming from.

My HDR



In this picture shows what looks almost like flames in the clouds. The brightness of the clouds to the darkness of them brings out the picture. The tree also stands out because of it being the only flat black big object.

The Magic of HDR

          HDR is an amazing look to a different type of photography. HDR pictures take a normal photograph and and make it ten times better! You have three pictures that will merge into one, the first is a dark, second is normal, and the third is brighter. Of course the three pictures are of the same thing. HDR is a type of magic that needs to be discovered on a higher level, it is simply amazing.




This picture shows a lot of detail in the shadows. You can see the cloud movement, the old textured wood, and the dead brown grass, and the un-functioning tractor. You can see how the person who edited this picture purposely made it have that old fashioned look to add onto the effect of HDR.

                                                          
In this photo the contrast is strong within the clouds and grass. The clouds look like thunder is about to come yet the sun shines through and lightens up everything which seems like a nice sunny day. HDR can do amazing things.
                                                         
This final photograph from the internet shows the city view and what the HDR can do with lights. Even though the sky looks still pretty bright the lights in the buildings, street lamps, and cars shine just as if it was night time. The clouds show the smoothness and the blue and the yellow/ orange stand out in the sky.
