my mouse manipulated

i like this manipulated image because i took the colour of the ball and swapped it with the colour of the mouse itself and it created a very nice image.

close-up manipulated

i like this image because it had been manipulated to have a red background with the darker badge in the centre, it could give the effect of someone bleeding, and that adds gore to the picture

close-up

i like this picture because it is a school logo on a t-shirt, this is a close-up because it has a a bit of background on it

medium shot

i like this image of the desk and table because it has a bit of light beaming down onto it, which is a great natural effect.

Extreme close-up

i like this image because it is an apple from a apple mouse. this is an extreme close-up because there isn't a lot of background to it

Extreme close-up

I like this picture because it is a ball on a mouse but you cant exactly tell that from the extreme close-up so it adds a mysterious side to it

My Progress

I believe my progress on my blogger. i have been able to upload photos to my blog and upload documents from scribed to my blog. I am pleased with my piece on the history of photography because I feel I included some important information. I don't believe my work has many weakness's to it if any so far. i have enjoyed being bale to design my blogger page and apply different gadgets to my page such as slideshow and news feed from google news.

History of photography

In 1928 a man called Andre Kertesz took some pictures in a place in france called meudon. photography has been going on for 170years. Henry Fox Talbot invented photography in 1839. The First camera was a pin hole camera and A pinhole camera is a simple camera without a lens and with a single small aperture, effectively a light-proof box with a small hole in one side. Light from a scene passes through this single point and projects an inverted image on the opposite side of the box. The art of photography transforms what it describes and encapsulates something of the illusive art of photography.

Mr Page

Congratulations on getting your Blog to work! Your analysis work has been very good, with a good variety of shots/shot distances. I especially liked your comment on how the long jumper's face was obscured. Do check your punctuation and spelling however.

My introduction

My name is Dale Blackwell and i'm in year 11 and i'm studying Media BTEC. Our current topic is photography and we have looked at what makes a good photo and the history behind photography,also we have looked at types of shot distances. eventually we will be taking our own planned photos for our unit. we already have already made a CD front cover. in making the CD front cover we had to research what the audience likes and the different pictures and colour's we want to include. we have also made a magazine front cover,contents page,CD front and back cover and a two page spread. All of this we had to put a lot of research into because we needed it to be presentable and appealing to the people who look at it.
