Last task...

The last task we got in Photography was 'choose a task you want to do'. So, we can pretty much do whatever we want to.

I have chosen a theme that I'm going to take pictures related to. The theme I've chosen is..(insert drum-roll here)..PRIDE!

I don't know yet, how or where I'm gonna take the pictures, but you'll see when I post them.

5 Categories

We had an assignment were we should take pictures of five categories. The categories were; Autumn, Animals, Fruit, Children who want's to grow up and Composition.
We should post 2 pictures in each category and one favorite picture. That is 9 pictures together =w= hooray! I can count to 9
The fist category I have is fruit.


The idea to these pictures were..to take pictures of fruit. Duh! o_0
I creates a rhythm when the apples lies like they do in the second picture, with the three green and three redishpink apples. I didn't do anything special with the light but I have edited it a bit so the colors became clearer.
I have learned that it's really smart to spray some water on the fruit before you take pictures of them, because then they look so much more delicious.

The second category is animals, and in this context cat and horse.





Aww I love those two. They're so cute C:
Well, I suppose I can say, first of all, that it's just a coincident that I got those pictures.
The POI in the pictures are the horse's face, the ball, the eyes and the eyes again. I have as usual edited the colors brighter. I have learned that it's really just a coincident that you get awesome pictures of animals.

Next category; Autumn

I like the colors in these pictures! C: 
The POI in the first picture is a leaf (oh jee, didn't see that one coming) and in the second one it's  the shadow in the background-ish. =w=
I have learned that you should not wait until last minute before you go out and take pictures. It's really not that smart o_0  if you change the scene wheel something on the camera, you get completely different pictures C:

Composition: 


First of all, I have absolutely NO idea what this category is about. (great now my teacher will think I'm a douche :C ) Seriously, I did not understand what the teacher told me ^^U Some persons said that I could just take a random picture of something and some said that it was about the lines and stuff in the picture. So, I decided to take a mix of both....ish.
The first one is of a sunflower and a wasp. (Which I failed to see was a wasp, until AFTER I had taken the picture and then I went like HOLY FUCK! O_O) The POI is the wasp, and I don't know what I can say about the picture really ._.

The second picture is of my little sister when we went skiing. The POI is the pink ski-pants she's wearing (doh! They're kinda like...glowing..or something...)  
You can see the contrast very clearly, because the snow is white and so is the background (because of the snow) and she is....well...not. She's like a lighthouse in the middle of the night...or something... C: 

FAVORITE PICTURE!

Okay, this is my favorite picture. That's because of the story behind....
Well, you see. Me and my family were at Hovden ski-center. My sister an I were out skiing, she were in front of me on the way down, and suddenly I couldn't see here anymore. My fist thought were something like "How the hell did she go so fast?" and as I continued a little bit down I suddenly saw a foot with a ski on sticking up from the ground. Then I just "GREAT! I have to dig!" Yeah, I actually thought that I had to dig her up from where she was. Now that I look back I realize that I would not be possible for her to get UNDER the snow -.-'''  Anyway, I ran a little further down and then I saw her lying there just like on the picture. I laughed SO hard! I actually fell over because I laughed so much. It was hilarious. I still have no idea how she managed to get herself into that, but it was so much fun.

I do actually like the picture for more that the story itself. I like that it's completely white (lalalala don't look at the trees, they're not there) except for her.

And with that, this post is done. Yay! : D

PS. I know that I don't have the category 'Children who want's to grow up.' but I did not have the opportunity to take any pictures of children D=





Manipulation

Yay! More photoshop! n_n

So, this time the teacher told us about how about all of the pictures we see in the media like commercials and stuff, are manipulated.

Here's an exaple on how a picture can be manipulated.
