Macrophotography

This weeks theme was Macrophotography. For my first picture I took it of my earbuds messily displayed on a table. I took the picture using the camera flash so that the shadows would add more depth to the picture and make the green and yellow coloring more vibrant. The second picture is of my lokai bracelet that I also took using the camera flash. I like this one a lot because of how the water beads come off to be translucent and the main point of the image. The final picture I took a selfie of just my eye. I used the flash again to blur out the background so that the color of my eye would be the center of the picture. It focused more on the detail of y eyelashes but also brought out the quality and color in my eye. 

Night

The theme of this weeks blog is night so for this first picture was taken during summer 2015 at a summer festival in Nob Hill. My friend used her professional camera in order to take the picture of me and a group of other friends. It focuses mainly on us with all of the background darkened, making the clothing and hair look super vibrant. The second picture was taken this winter at the river of lights. It greatly highlights the vibrant flower christmas lights in the background but dims out my friend that I initially took the picture of. Behind her I love how you can see very small twinkling lights with the rest of the scenery. The final picture is a selfie of me and my friend at about 9pm when we were driving to Scottsdale Arizona to go and visit a friend. I used the front facing flash in order to take the picture so that's why the quality isn't all that great because it wasn't able to focus. 

Sports

The theme of this weeks blog was to take pictures of people doing sports. The first picture is of me snowboarding in Santa Fe. I had my dad take it at a side angle. The second picture I took of my brother at his club baseball game when he was in the middle of a hit. In order to get this I originally took a video and then stopped it right on the action shot frame. The final picture is of me snowboarding again, only this time I took it from an upward angle with the go pro. I really like this picture because you can see so many aspects of Taos ski mountain from the chairlift.
