ANALYSIS OF BAD PHOTO ASSIGNMENT:
This post is late, but I am still getting used to checking the blog everyday and filling out he responses. One thing I learned from this project was basically how this works. I am new to Photoshop and uploading images, I am technologically challenged so this is very helpful or me! The assignment was to take bad photos and although that sounds easy, it certainly wasn't. It is actually hard to make one element of your picture "bad" but produce a beautiful photo. Honestly I think a lot of this happens with luck, when your bad photo is actually unique and captivating. Most of my photos were jut outright horrible, I get very confused with all the different settings on the camera and i haven't figured out how to master the different elements of exposure. I realized that to take some interesting photos I need to plan the assignment out ahead of time and try to go somewhere interesting. I was stuck with my dog this weekend and that was all I could take pictures of. I am definitely still learning and hopefully this Paul Strand assignment will show some improvement.

  1. I appreciate where you are today, I do remember this clearly, fumbling for the right button, pressing things that change settings and not knowing what I did and how to change it back... but I promise you, before you are done with the class this will all be second nature to you! I look forward to seeing your Paul Strand photos.
