Lytro warm up & Ethics in Fashion Photography

Lytro Warm Up
 
1. All it really did was just re-focus the photo. I really Didn't see that much of a Difference when I clicked on the photo. Just got more clear.
 
2. Um, Im actually really not sure how this camera works. Maybe its just a feature?
 
3. I think the photographer really doesn't need to have as much experience with the camera but I think it'll be difficult to really focus and zoom in at the right moment. 
 
4. Worth the money? Sure. I mean, its better quality and a cool feature. So why not ?
 
 
 Fashion:
 
1. Some of the changes that were changed in the model's face was of course the makeup, and on Photoshop they made her eyes bigger, made her face skinnier and distorted a few things. 
 
2. I think it is ethically possible because whoever wanted to be in the front cover of a magazine or ad they signed a contract to make changes of what so ever to their face, maybe just to get money. But I just think it's okay, as long it's their own decision.
 
 3. Yes, because it can also change the view of people out there and people expect to look exactly the same as an ad or magazine.
 
 4. Types of changes that are okay, were probably the hair and makeup and I really didn't like the Photoshop changes.
 
5. The differences between fashion photography and photojournalism is that fashion photography make a lot of changes to a picture and use mostly self portraits of people.
 
6. I guess this affects by posting up ads and on magazines. I don't really know.

American Soldier and Captions

A) It was the picture where ian was getting recruted because he commited himself not for the money but cause he loves his country and after highschool i want to enlist also.

B) Set #1 from 1 to 9.
Set #2 from 10 to 30.
Set #3 from 31 to 55.
Set #4 from 70 to 83.

The ones where he was back at home because it shows if you relly want somethig all you have to do is commit and put your mind heart and sould into it and you will eventually be sucessful.

C) Because they show you how a a young man was nothing and he wasstruggling but he did something he was interested in and then he achieved more than just becoming a soldier he achieved self-confidence and will-power for himself.

3. A) The photographes are in past tense

B) Beacuse, they give (me) the reader a specific detail about each photograph.

4. A) Because the fact of how these photos were taken and how the effect of the photograph describes and gives th veiwer a more complex visual of each picture.

B) They are better cause the fact that they have spoken words which are mre affecive and more easy to describe the things that are going on.

C) Pictures are better than videos , only cause they show a specific point of time eagerness joy/sadness or any other emotions at that time.

Aperture, Shutter Speed, ISO - how do they all work?


1. We should closely relate to the human eye.


2. The smaller the aperture, the higher the f-stop number. The higher the Aperture, the smaller the f-stop number.
3.  Aperture can effect the depth of field, or the amount of clear/blurry objects in photo.The larger the aperture size, the objects the closest to the camera will come out more clear and the smaller aperture size, the more clearer the background appears.
