LL2- Exposure
The class meet as a group at the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens on a very nice sunny day. I brought my Canon DSLR and was eager to learn what I was suppose to do with my camera. Prof. Michals explained how the camera reads lighting and what each setting does. She also explained that in order to adjust for all this extra lighting we are having today, it is possible to get contrast by adjusting the exposure compensation. I was somewhat familiar with adjusting exposure, but now that I was using it to add contrast in my photos when out in bright or low light, it was amazing how much better my photos look than usual! I was very excited by understanding this feature that l couldn’t stop taking pictures. In a land of my own, I kept astray from the group. Luckily I was able to find the class and learn even more valuable tips on getting my camera to do what I want it to do. As a designer, controlling the output of my visual elements is crucial. I am excited to learn even more.

LL2 – Exposure
This week we learned about exposure and the balance between light and dark in photos. I chose the above photograph as my most successful because of the high contrast between lights and darks in the photo. I find it beautiful how the light is hitting a small section of leaves, highlighting the color, details and placement within the whole tree. The dark areas show what the overall structure is, but allows you to keep focus on the lit area. The lighting also allows you to see the details in the leaves, the veins, where the leaves meet the branch, the small pointed tips and the variation of the outside edge. The lighting focused on that one small area allowed me to take a high quality photograph without losing detail to a high ISO or low shutter speed. I did not use exposure compensation on this picture because I wanted to maintain the shadows on the leaves surrounding the lit leaves in the middle of composition.

LL1- Composition
I chose this image because I liked how the chair works with with it’s environment to create a story. It has a nice sense of balance and depth of field, as the chair is more to the back of the image and the broken door/wood are towards the front.
