WOOOHOOOOOOOOO

ISO: 1250 Aperture: 4.0 Shutter Speed: 1/80 Lens: 24-105mm

This was definitely a selfie that I took this past weekend. I actually just really like this picture because of our expressions and how caroline is peaking above the top. There really isn't technical about this picture. It was a little dark in the room, so I had to bump up my ISO a little more than usual. There wasn't anyone there to take a picture of us, so we just decided to take it ourselves, and I actually really like it lol

First Soccer Game of the Year

ISO: 800 Aperture: 4.0 Shutter Speed: 1/180 Lens: 24-104mm

This was an assignment that I had to shoot while I was at the boys varsity soccer game. The assignment was to take some pictures of the new coach interacting with the boys. While this sounded easy, it was rather difficult. You have to remember that they are in the middle of a game, so therefore, I didn't want to get all up in his business. However, I still needed to get a good shot. This was one of the better ones that I could get. The bars were kind of in the way, but the coach has a good expression on his face and he is motioning toward the boys. I wish that they boys were a bigger part of the picture though.

ISO: 1000 Aperture: 5.6 Shutter Speed: 1/180 Lens: bigma
As far as shooting the game went, this was one of the better pictures that I came out with. I was using my camera which was a canon 6D and with the flash, the maximum shutter speed was 1/180 of a second. This made shooting soccer very difficult because the game moves so fast. However, when I got back to class, Smith told me that I can do high speed sync. So that is what I'm going to have to do next time to make my pictures sharper.

Brother

ISO: 4000 Aperture: 4.0 Shutter Speed: 1/160 Lens: 24-105mm

This was a picture that I took of my brother at the Grand Ole Opry. It was really dark in the room, and I was concerned about my pictures being really grainy, but they didn't turn out too shabby. I used my new Canon 6D for the picture, and you can take the ISO up the the size of God!!! The most interesting thing to me about this picture was the atmosphere. There was a bunch of old people!! Although it was fun to take pictures there because of the change in atmosphere.

Hot Springs

ISO: 640 Aperture: 4.0 Shutter Speed: 1/320 Lens: 24-105mm

ISO: 640 Aperture: 4.0 Shutter Speed: 1/320 Lens: 24-105mm

Soooo, over the weekend, some photogs and I decided to go to Hot Springs for the weekend. We had the bright idea to hike a mountain, and these were some of the pictures that I took when we got to the top. I wanted all of us to get into the picture, therefore, I found a very conveniently placed trashcan that doubled as an amazing tripod!! I put the timer on the camera, pressed the button, and ran into the picture. These are actually a couple of my favorite pictures of my friends and I.

Pottery

ISO: 800 Aperture: 4.0 Shutter Speed: 1/125 Lens: 24-105mm

This was a picture that I took during class one day when Haley said that somebody needed to go take pictures of pottery. So I was all like, "OKAY!!" Henceforth, I went into the ceramics room and saw that there were "culturally diverse" people. Therefore, I made sure to take pictures of those who were of "another shade." Going in to take the pictures was slightly awkward, because the room they were in was kinda small so there wasn't a whole lot of room to move around. This was the best picture I came out with. I wasn't too pleased with it, but it's usable. I wish that I could have gotten her eyes in it.
