The Camera

1.The camera obscure effect is a portable camera that uses a glass lens a dark box and film to create photographs.

2. The research of optics and lens by Isaac Newton and Christian Huygens helped get closer to the worlds modern camera.

3. The first modern parts invented by Niepce was the film. 

4. One similarly with the Niepce and the modern camera is that they both use film. 


5. The modern camera uses a sensor in the smear called CCD to take photographs. 

6. the difference between Auto Mode and Program Mode is that in Program mode the camera autofocuses for you and in Auto Mode you have more freedom to focus the camera and control the camera how you want. 

7. Portrait mode is used for unclose photography when you want the background to be off-focused or blurry.

8. Sports mode is for high activity photos when your subject is moving. It works by singling the shutter to open and close faster which means you can take photos quicker.

9. A photographer in manual mode has to be able to control exposure, focus and flash.

10.  You should always do half press one the camera because it focuses the image before you click it fully down when you take the photo. 

11,12. These symbols are the flash and no flash symbol. You should use flash whenever the lighting is dark. 


13. If your photo is too light you could try turning flash off, turning down exposure or trying another angle. 

14. 
f the photo doesn't have enough light you oddly try turning on the flash, adjusting the exposure or try eating the photo with software.

15. A "stop" is the cameras shutter speed depending on how much light the camera is taking in. 


16. How many stops brighter is the new planet if there are two suns instead of one? 1


17. How many stops brighter is the new planet if there are four suns instead of two? 2

18.A longer shutter speed has a result of a blurred photo.

19. A shorter shutter speed results in having more focused in moment photos. 

20.A aperture controls how much light the camera allows in the photo. 

21. You can control the amount of light by adjusting the aperture.

Great black and white photographers



Mount Williamson - the Sierra Nevada,
from Manzanar, California
1945
by. Ansel Adams

I chose this photograph because it reminds me of where I was born and where I grew up. Its almost like I can feel the weather and the rocks 
through the photo and it brings me home.

Robert Doisneau
Sunday morning in Arcueil
1945

I chose this photo 
because it has the feeling of comfort and care of a small town. In the photo you can tell everyone knows everyone and you get a real special sense of community.


SebastiĆ£o Salgado
Refugees in the Korem camp
Ethiopia, 1984

This is my favorite photographer and photograph out of the three here because it shows how much we take for granted. You can see in the photograph how tired they are, just trying to stay alive. The people in the photograph are crossing a desert just trying to find safety and stay alive.
