The final stint – Scary! Week 14 This week is a week of taking – and then posting – practice photos for the final assignment. I didn’t manage to get very many of the practice photos completed, but I did manage to get the few that I DID take uploaded and ready for comment. WeekContinueContinue reading “Photography: Week 14-16”

No more lockdown. Yay. Week 13 This has been another interesting week due to the weather. It’s been super windy with a fair amount of rain! It’s been a little bit easier to take my night photos this time, as I had planned a bit better than my last attempt. James and I drove aboutContinueContinue reading “Photography: Week 13”

Another week of lockdown photography. Week 12 This has been another interesting week due to the ongoing lockdown, this time Level 2 restrictions. The learning materials for this week focus on night photography, in preparation for the assignment next week, which is a night photo (funnily enough). It’s been a little bit easier to takeContinueContinue reading “Photography: Week 12”

Backlighting in other words. Usually thisContinueContinue reading “Photography: Week 8”

The learning materials centred around the difference between the various types of lenses. I already knew that there are prime lenses and zoom lenses, but I wasn’t very sureContinueContinue reading “Photography: Week 7”

Busy. Busy. Busy! Week 5 This week had me studying for the one and only online test in the course. It was an open book test (thank goodness) and was all about the main concepts discussed so far. At first I had to really think about the questions, but then I remembered that I couldContinueContinue reading “Photography: Week 5 & 6”

This week has been all about composition. Week 4 The course materials this week went through how to actually compose a photograph, mainly focusing on the rule of thirds, perspective, repetition and canting (taking the photo at an angle). I really enjoyed researching photo composition. I’m fairly confident that I can frame a photo well,ContinueContinue reading “Photography: Week 4”
