Luis Soto Photography II Period IV
Journal I
The main thing that was hard for me in creating my website was learning the whole process and tools you can use to edit pretty much everything. It really wasn't hard because I already had an idea of what I wanted. But it was difficult to adjust to the new enviornment because im used to editing with word or powerpoint.​
The classes i have this school year are pre-calculus, AP Spanish, Mariachi 2, This class Photography 2 even though I was meant to be put in Photo1. For 5th period i have AP US-History, for 6th i have Physics and for 7th i have AP English.
The class I'm excited about would have to be Mariachi. Ive had this class since last year. Thanks to me being in it, it has helped me enhance my guitar and music skills. Im also excited because we will be able to travel for concerts. For example this school year we will be going to Las Cruces for an event.
The class im least excited about would have to be English. I have always hated english. Mainly because i hate reading. Well its not that i hate the class or anything i just hate the boring environment .
My plan to succeed this school year in all my classes mainly consist of doing all my work. Turning projects and homework on time. Be as organized as possible. I believe if someone is truly organized things are way easier.
Blur Motion
Blur motion is the effect that you get when you lower the shutter speed of a camera. After taking the picture it appears as the object in the shot is moving at a very high rate of speed.
What you need to create a blur image is a camera in which you can change the shutter speed.
What I want my subject to be is light figures or drawing created with a light pen.
What you adjust in the camera in order to take a blur motion picture is the shutter speed.

1) Blur motion is the effect you when a picture is taken with the cameras setting altered. The setting that is changed is the shutter speed.
2) The way i took these images was by adjusting the shutter speed to around 3 then the aperture too max.
3) The only thing i did too the images was mainly adjust brightnes and contrast.
4) The hard thing about shooting these picture was knowing how to adjust the pictures for the type of lighting.
5) The easy thing about shooting was knowing what i wanted to shoot already so it was just changing the settings to my favor.
Project Proposal
1)The type of photography i picked for my project is architectural photography. I picked this style because buildings show a form of art. And well because id like to be an architect.
2) The way i've be
en thinking to take these shots is from below at an angle or try to do an angelic effect with the sun.
3) The editing id have to do for my picture would pretty much just be the brightness contrast and maybe depending if i would lie the image to be black and white.
4) Ive been thinking of shooting these images at central near the central plaza or in front of the tall building Bank of ABQ.
5) Id like to try this type of photography because i've seen a lot of pictures referring to this subject and it looks like art. But in a building way.

Advanced Lighting
​
1) The way photographers draw with light is by first using a light source then slowing down the shutter speed. while the shutter is open the light is in movement creating a shape or design.
2) This technique is called light painting
3)The way you can do both is by setting a timer so you can get in the shot.
4) Color does affect how a viewer sees an image because with different color theres different ways you can make illusions.
5)Colors do resemble emotions. For example the color black means sad (darkness) and with your lighter colors theres happier emotions.
6) To add color you edit on photoshop either by using the paint brush or filling it in.
7) The exposure triangle comes in to play when you want to take a good lit picture with low lighting.
8) They give an effect of flying lights.
9) To reflect light and get color you can use a disc or a glass prism. it divides white light in to a rainbow.
After Advanced Lighting
1) To draw with light you use a light source and your camera settings with the shutter speed low.
2) In some case the movement of light gives the viewer a different perspective towards the image.
3) The exposure triangle is is a common way of associating the three variables that determine the exposure of a picture, iso, aperture and shutter speed.
4) It gave me of sense of how to balance the factors for optimal lighting and quality.
5) I say using color does give your image a more dramatic appearance because it shows emotion and distortion.
6) Trying to convey your idea.
Project Proposal #2
1) The type of photography that I picked was a little bit of both nature photography and urban type photos.
2) The way i will shoot these images would be at night for urban and day for the nature. I feel that they will get a certain aspect with these two different types of lighting.
3) I feel that i wont need anything to shoot these images
4) My main 2 places that i will shoot these images would be at el bosque and downtown.
5) What i want to try for this project is to get an image of downtown lights on a busy night.
