Portraits

Dear oh dear. This assignment was quite fun, the hardest part was trying to get the pictures to look natural and not posed. So for the most part I was talking trying to distract her as much as possible to try and get real reactions and real emotions to things, rather than a fake smile and a pose. I didn't necessarily enjoy having my picture taken, but I did my best to do well. Setting up the pictures for natural light wasn't as difficult as I had thought it would be, they turned out nicely. All in all, I enjoyed this assignment and had an amazing group to work with, we had fun and laughed a lot.

Tight

I feel that in shooting tight it is harder to tell a story. While shooting tight, the image, I feel, cuts out things that are important to be able to grasp the story sometimes. With the shots I am posting I feel they were pretty self explanatory to a story, so that it wasn't as difficult to find it while looking at them. It was weird trying to compose only tight shots. Two of the images are of animals in nature, it tells the story that it is getting warmer(sadly). The third image is of a man fixing a part for his bicycle, also leading to the fact that it is still getting warmer(even more sadly).
