This morning, I had to do a presentation for my first assignment in Photography class. Above is the picture that I chose. We were told to search for 5 personal photos that we find interesting and 5 photos of professional photographer that attract our attention. Since this is my first photography class and I had no idea how to explain the photos using the "hues, saturation, noise" and such. I stick to the things i know best which is the story behind the pictures.
Mr Vinod did mention that i had to read the criteria and that my presentation must be relevant. Besides that in the previous class, he showed us some of his picture that he took which I think are quite awesome! Furthermore, he showed us the learning outcomes that we should get by the end of the semester which i think is a great thing to do so that we could actually have a clue of what we're going to learn.
Basically, just to recap what i've learnt today :
- Look sharp, Talk sharp, Think sharp
- Do more research
- Understand question and instruction correctly
- Don't be afraid to ask question.
- You snooze u loose baby!
- Always be confident
Below are the pictures and elaboration of the photos.
This
photo was taken by my friend Adhwa Shamila Aminuddin in January 8th
2011. This photo took place in my room after we did a video and a song cover
for our band. In this photo highlights the beauty of the guitar. I love how the
guitar and the bamboo curtain work together to create a beautiful picture.
Ofcourse there is a little help from my table lamp .
This
is a picture once again taken by my friend Adhwa Shamila Aminuddin at Brainy
Bunch Montessori in January 14th 2013. This photo shows how kids can easily
bond and love each other and I think that it’s beautiful.
This
photo was taken December 30th, 2010 at Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz
Shah highschool (my school) by me. This Flower is called Water Lettuce or what
the Malays call it “Bunga Kiambang”. This plant is known to treat wounds. I
find interest in this picture because it shows how beautiful nature can be.
Photo taken by
Jack Xender on April 28th 2012. “Wonderful Tree Puzzle” is the name
given. This photo shows how nature can be so beautiful and that it calms me
down whenever I look at the picture. Especially when you look at the picture
how the tree is placed as if it looked like a puzzle piece.
This shot was taken by Pravin Sivananthan in August 6 2012. This photo shows a lot of
love and the boy actually looked happy too.
For England ,
by Russ Barnes. Photo was taken in Worcestershire. A marvelous landscape picture
with red flowers.
Shot taken by
Hether West. On July 23, 2013.
I quote “ The
wild has an amazing way of granting clarity in an otherwise chaotic world.”
This photo was taken at the second most highest mountains in Washington which
she could see a sea of clouds beneath her. The beauty and power of nature.
Focus On The
Day That’s Been, by Robert Bradley. January 9th 2011
He waited for
a really long time just to get the sun stayed behind the lighthouse. And when
the time finally came, the man (middle left) raised his hand to look at the
ship in the distance. That’s when he knew he had his shot.
Photo taken by
Ben Ward
This shot
actually won him the best London photography prize in 2011.As they said it’s a
great photo that captures a group of likeminded friends perfectly
The shot was
taken by Steve McCury in December 1984.
Sharbat Gula was the name of the girl and she
was living as a refugee in Pakistan during the time
of the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan. This picture is sometimes popularly
referred to as "the Afghan Mona Lisa".
FEEDBACK
- Try not to put many words beside our picture, and make the picture look as big and clear as possible.
- Be clear whenever we're presenting. Because we;re presenting to other people and its compulsory for everyone to understand what we're presenting
REFLECTION
- Some of my friends used this term called 'noise'. I didn't quite understand at first but then she told me something about the picture being rough. So, atleast I'm a bit enlightened.
