Capture what you have learned

The stuff I learend about in taking action pictures is we take them to capture a sport photos and a photo when somethings in action. For a action photo you have to have a high shutter speed. You need a high shutter speed to catch the moment of the picture. Another thing I learned was about panning. Panning is when you use the camera to follow your main subject in the picture. So you can get your main subject in focus.

Austin Architecture

1.Light-I like the light in the picture and how there is light coming from every angle. I didn't like the stuff in the picture though because theres just alot of stuff everywhere.

2.Patterns-This is my favorite picture because of the buildings in the background looks pretty, and so does the big white thing in the front. I just don't like the little guy on the bike though. I think he ruins the whole picture. I also think it has a good lighting and is in focus.

3.Surroundings-I like this photo because it has good lighting and I like how they got a picture of the whole building and the road with the people at the end of it.

4.Surroundings-I didn't like this picture too much. It had good focus but the focus was just on the water.

5.details-I like this picture because the building looks cool. I just don't like that little person in the picture.

6.Light-I like this picture because the color of the sky is pretty. I also like the amount of light in the picture. Theres not too much,and not too little.

7.Angles and shapes or light- I don't like this picture the one before it was better. I think it's the exit sign that killed it. But i like the angles of the building.

8.Angles and shapes and lights- I like the light in the picture and how it hits the building.

9.Lights-I like the light in the picture. I just don't like the light at the bottom, it looks weird.

10.Light- I wasn't quite sure what kinda picture this was but I guess because it was sunny and you could see shadow that it was light. But I didn't like it because I think it would of been better without that big white thing in it.

11.Light-I like the lighting in this picture and how it comes out from the side. I didn't like all the stuff in the background though.

12.Surroundings and Patterns- I like the background but I don't like the white thing at this angle it looked better in the other picture. And I don't like the lighting how it makes a big shadow at the bottom.

13.Patterns and Angles and shapes- I like the angles in the picture. I just dont like how it's dark in the hall.

14.Surroundings-I don't like the white thing in the picture. I liked the lighting thought.

15.Angles and shapes-I like all the shapes in the picture and I like the lighting in the picture.

16.Angles and shapes- I like all the shapes and angles in the picture. I would like it more if it had more lighting though at the bottom because its all dark.

3. Three safety shots I could get are of the coach, when their sitting on a bench, and if they're dribbling.
4. Two possible money shots I could get is when thier playing basket ball and someones blocking them and if one of them falls.
