HDR Photography
High dynamic range (HDR) allows great dynamic range between the lightest and darkest areas of the image. It can represent an accurate range of intensity levels found in real scenes from the direct sunlight. The photo is captured by a plurality of different exposed pictures of the same subject. Cameras that don’t have HDR take pictures at one exposure level with a limited contrast range. When taking a photo it can have loss of detail in bright or dark areas on the picture depending if the camera has a low or high exposure setting. HDR is usually used to display images that are derived from HDR in a way that exaggerated contrast for an artistic effect. It represents a more accurate range of intensity levels found in real scenes. When taking HDR photos you take a multiple of pictures at different exposure level, and putting them together to produce a picture that represents in both dark and bright areas.

Texture Photography
Texture photography is one way of the viewer’s attention into the image. Photographs that use this technique create impact by showing the different textures. The effect of the texture of the elements in the image can become as commanding as the use of pronounced colors as well as, dramatic scenery or induced movement by lines. Detail presents the aspects seen on the surface of the material. Contrast, curves and patterns are aspects of texture photographs that can help compose an image. The color of the image is always captured, and practically the purpose of the photo. Curves are also a part of texture that gives it the outlook, and the surface detail of an object needs to stand out.

Writing Assignment
reflected to the sky or to a plain background. I mostly used the rule of thirds on my negative photos because the subject looked better on the side then in the center. On my silhouette photos I used the same technique, but most of the time the subject was on the center. My photographic technique was base on the location of the sun. The camera had to be in front of the camera and I would have to focus the subject. When I tried taking the silhouette photos it was complicated because I was focusing on the sun rather than the subject which made it complicated to take the picture.
While taking these photos I tried several of angles to get great shots, and to see which ones I would want as my final shots. Sometimes I wasn’t very happy with the way some of the pictures came out. So, I tried several angles to see what shots I would like better and sometimes the position of the subject would matter. Most of the time the camera wouldn’t focus and wouldn’t take the picture so I would have to angle the camera. For my negative photos I would have to angle the camera a certain way since I was focusing on the subject rather than the plain background. For my silhouette photos I angled my camera in several ways to see what shots looked better, but sometimes it depended where the sun was located at.
Before I went out and took my photos I brainstormed my ideas on what I wanted to do for negative space and silhouette photos. I came up with easy ideas so it wouldn’t be so difficult to take the photo. For my negative space photos I knew the background had to be plain so I would pick things that wouldn’t blend it too much, but that stood out more. Most of the time I didn’t really go with my ideas, and found other interesting things that I liked more. I mostly use my ideas as a reference to help me know what to do or what I want. But, after taking the shots I would end up happy with the way my photos came out because the subject would stand out and would be focused.
The way I plan to execute these images was to always have a backup plan in case I didn’t like the way the photos will come up. But, like I mentioned earlier my images mostly depended on the angle and how I liked them.
I believe these photos will make it a meaningful and personal body of work because it’s something that you came up with and took credit of. The photos subject had to stand up more in the picture so you would know what the camera was focusing in and what it would describe in the person. Taking photo takes practice and you should know what you would want as a photographer who’s just starting.
Some of the things I’ve learned in this term were how to change the shutter speed in order to capture good shots in a matter of seconds. For example I had to change my shutter speed to take an action shot of a bird flying. I also learned that you can change the shutter speed for light graffiti photos depending on what you wanted to do.

Negative Space Write-Up
Negative space in art is a space around and between the subjects of an image. Negative space can be the most evident when the space around a subject is itself. It informs an interesting relevant shape, and the space around is occasionally artistic. It is a key element of an artistic composition. Most of the images can be black and white and the subject is usually dark and the space around it is white which can form a silhouette. Reversing the tones so that the space around the subject is printed black. The subject itself is left blank causes the negative space to be apparent as it forms shapes around the subject, which is called figure-ground reversal. Negative space can be used to depict a subject in a chosen medium by showing everything around the subject but not the subject itself. Usage of negative space will produce a silhouette of the subject. Negative space is used as a neutral or contrasting background to draw attention to the main subject which is referred as positive space.
Silhouette Reflection
A silhouette is an image of a person or a scene that is a single color, but most of the time the color is black. Most of the time the interior of a silhouette is featureless and it is usually presented with a light background. In order to take a silhouette photo you must be reflected by the sun in order for the subject that you’re focusing on to be black. A silhouette is described as the sight or representation of a person, object or scene that is backlit. Silhouette emphasizes the outline which depicts the edge of an object in a linear form.

Cubism relates to photography because you need an image in order to analyze the image and brake it up into parts to reassembled the image in an abstract form. Cubism art is recognized by their flattened, and two dimensional appearances as well the geometry angles, lines, and shape that represent the image.
