I learned about manuscripts, and got to see them physically compared to a normal photo. It was a very cool experience. The image i took from the cemetery relates to it because i feel it was also a portrait from what i saw in the manuscript when it was hit with light.

Flower
I love how the flower is in focus and how the background is blurred. It’s my favorite picture from the feild trip. The picture really shows the detail of the flower. You can also see the webbing that came from a nearby spider.

Flower
This is the photo i took in class. I love how the light bounces from behind to capture the image. I really like how the flower is positioned and captures that dark but light look.

Learning log Kenneth Melendez
In class i learned the term “the rule of thirds”. It’s when the camera screen is split into thirds, and you snap a picture while its focused on the four corners. I used it for my image of the chair. It helped me learn how to take a shot using the term.

Brooklyn bridge study 1
The photo that shows underneath the Brooklyn bridge taken by Michael Kenna, is the one I chose. It is in black and white, with a grey gradient. It’s the first image in the gallery on her website. This photo is a Landscape, showing off underneath the bridge and the city from a distance. The photographer’s intentions was to capture the beauty of NYC in a full scale tone. The photo shows emphasis on the overhead bridge and city in the background. The technical matters help the image. Overall the photo is sharp and clear. I believe the graphic elements are important. When I look at the photo it has a nice overhead view with the city in the background. The Image is in low contrast and when you stare at the image you can see the city. The photo gives off a gloomy vibe because of the low keys. All of the photos appear the same in tone.
