I had a lot of different ideas that I wanted express, but the ones that seemed to work the best, were the spontaneous ideas. It seemed that after I took my first pictures, more ideas started flowing. I wanted to show the different sides of my personality; I wanted to show the determined, the calm and the more serious side of myself. Not many people know this side of me, and that were I based most of my ideas on. Honestly, everything seemed to flow really well, especially since I wasn’t concentrating too hard on the task I had in front of me. Everything seemed to mesh together, especially having my partners as examples for my own work.
All of my pictures in some way, in my opinion, tell a story. If I have to choose one picture that has the most craftsmanship, I would have to say that my Element picture has the most craftsmanship. The angle it was taken at brings a lot of depth into this picture. This picture could have gone both with color or black and white, because of the many different colors, different shades of blacks grays and whites, and the different textures. This picture is symbolic of where I would like to be, like my idea of heaven right now. I look at peace in this picture.
In my opinion, my over all craftsmanship was really good. We knew when we were going to take pictures in the sun that it was going to be too bright, especially on the concrete basketball court or when I was sitting on top of one of one of the concrete horses that are on either side of the stairs, so we made sure that the ISO was at 50. When we were taking pictures of me playing basketball, we used F-stop so that we could capture the picture without having it be blurry. There was some sort of blur on my arm when I was taking a reverse lay-up, but it doesn’t really affect the picture in a negative way at all.
This project was fun, because I enjoy the actual taking pictures part of photography, especially taking pictures that depict what is important and how we would like to be viewed. I loved having to put the pictures black and white, because it made them mean more and gave them more of an effect. My favorite picture was of me dribbling the ball towards the basket. It shows movement and my passion for this sport. Looking at this picture makes me remember the ambition and dedication I had for basketball, and that I wish I still possessed. My least favorite picture if there had to be one is the picture where I was going up for a reverse lay-up. To me it would have looked better if I could actually see the basketball going into the net, or at least towards the basket. Maybe if we set it up to where the picture was taken underneath me. Either was I really enjoyed this assignment because it really seemed to show myself and others the person I really am.
