The photo that I picked is of a little girl giving a cheerleader a big hug and the cheerleader has the biggest smile.

1. I picked this photo because I thought it was adorable how the little girl gave the cheerleader a hug and how the cheerleader had the biggest smile on her face.
2. Emotion, simplicity, and fill the frame.



1. Core class classrooms, Band hall, Dance studio
2.Mr. Powell, Mrs. Shuttleworth, Mrs.Dawson, Mr. Logan, Mrs. Cayer, Mr.Pittman, Mrs. Vohl
3.Take the photos at different angles, take close up photos and far away photos and use the photo rules.

Academic preview shoot

The Story 
 I think this photo has the best story because it is just a picture of a bunch of students in their class having fun and just enjoying learning. 

Action and emotion
This photo I picked for action and mainly emotion because the students are around the flag pole and praying for each other and the school and I think that that is really awesome and it just touched my heart. 
Fill the frame
I find this picture most interesting because its a students coming to together to help a cause and thats so cool and you don't see that to often.

Photo Ethics

I think this photo is the most unethical because in the first one her teeth are her teeth and then in the latest picture (one on the left) is with her teeth photo edited. i think that photo editing someone just because they look different is wrong.

I think this photo is the least unethical because there nothing wrong with wanting to move mountains closer but changing a persons face yeah there is a huge difference. So that is why I chose this photo for least unethical.



1. Summarize the main points of the story.
Someone at the newspaper used Adobe Photoshop to cut out the ladies in the cabinet to make it look like it was an all men cabinet. During the same conflict, Issam Kobeisi made two images for Reuters and Hussein Malla submitted one to AP of a woman wailing in front of a bombed house. The strange thing about all three photographs was that it was the same woman, but at three different locations on three different dates, according to times stamps on the images.While both photographers were close enough to conveniently capture her emotion and the wreckage with wide-angle lenses, neither bothered to include the woman’s name in their captions.
2.I think this type of photo editing is bad because its basically saying we don't like you so we are join to just cut you out of the photo.

Avoiding Mergers


Balance


Framing

I chose this this photo for framing because it looks like the wall that got destroyed is framing a fireman on a climbing on a ladder. I think its interesting because it looks like the fireman is climbing towards the sky.

Lines

I chose this photo for lines because the lines that are on the building makes the subject of the photo(the man)look like he is climbing stairs yet in reality he is falling off the building.

The Rule of Thirds


Simplicity

I choose this photo for simplicity because there is only two people in the picture and there is nothing else to distract you like other colors or other people.

National Geographic

This photo is my favorite favorite because I find it so cool how the photographer got the photo right before his hind legs left the branch. If I could submit a photo in to this contest it would be of Chita Siberia and the different culture that they have compared to ours.

Touching people

1. I think this project is interesting and kind of weird.
2. I would say no and walk away.
4. The photos are nice and are unique, i would prefer to look at other types of photos.

This was the first photo I choose because its is so sweet and just beautiful .    I like the  angle that the person took the photo from. I think this photo made top 40 photos ever because of the sweetness that goes with the picture. PHOTOGRAPHER: Vanderlei Almeida/Getty Images

This is many second favorite picture because it show emotion and  that life doesn't always give you lemons to make lemonade with. I like that the person didn't really get close up on the people but yet made the picture seem interesting.  I think this photo made top 40 photos ever because of it symbolism. PHOTOGRAPHER: Jeff Roberts/ AP 

My third and last photo I choose also because it showed emotion and just happiness.  I like that the photographer took the photo from a sideways angle and not straight on. I think this photo made the top 40 photos ever because of the meaning of family that goes with the picture. PHOTOGRAPHER: Yomiuri Shimbun/ Reuters

The Camera

1. The Camera obscura effect was  a tiny hole in a wall in a completely dark room. Though the hole light is focused and the outside scene is projected on the opposite wall upside down. It was achieved because the hole acted like a lens, focusing and projecting light into the wall of the dark chamber.
2.  The invention that helped man get a step closer to creating the modern camera during the 17th century was  the process of making high quality glass lenses.
3.  The parts of the first modern camera that was invented by Niepce were A glass lens, a dark box, and film.
4. Modern digital cameras have this in common with Niepce 's camera, light passes through the lens into the camera and exposes the film.
5.To capture an image modern cameras use a electronic sensor called a CCD.
6. The difference between auto mode and the program mode is auto will completely control the flash and program you just point and shoot.
7. Portrait mode is used to attempt to blur out the background. It works by the camera will try to use the fastest available lens setting.
8. Sports mode is used to freeze motion. It works by the camera using the highest shutter speed possible.
9. a half press will tell the camera that you are almost ready to take a shot and be prepared.
10.this symbol means Disabled flash. You use this when you don't want to use flash.
11.this symbol means Auto- flash. you use this when the camera thinks it needs more light.
12. If there is to much light then your photo will be washed out.
13. If there isn't enough light then the photo will be to dark.
14. A "stop" is a relative measurement of light.
15. 1
16. 2
17.The affect that a longer shutter speed has is that it will give more light.
18. the affect that a shorter shutter speed has is that  it will have less light.
19. The aperture controls the opening of the lens.
20. by setting the "aperture opening" also know as an f-stop.
