Annie Leibovitz

Katie: this photo is very well designed because of the lines that exist within the photograph. There are two very strong lines and these include the line that the model is creating with her body and the curved line that is created by the waterfall.  The line that the waterfall creates brings the viewer into the picture therefore making them active.  I like this photo because there is a sense of movement within the photo and I also like the color scheme.

This photo is more abstract compared to the rest of her photographs.  The light wardrobe of the subjects draws your attention too them.  Also there are both veritcal and horizantal lines that exists in the photo.  The horizantal line is created by the table and the subject that is laying on the table.  While this is a studio photograph, I like how artistic it is.

This is another photograph that uses the same color scheme and is almost monochromatic.  The background plays a big role in this photo because the colors in the background exist on the subject as well.

shutter speed

also called exposure time

amount of time the shutter exposes the film to light

if shutter speed is too long then picture can come out too bright of possibly blurry and can create a ghost effect

if shutter speed is too slow then not enough light will reach the film and it will be too dark

Telephoto Lens

created around 1940

has a long focus that extends the light path to create a long focus in a smaller lens

different types of telephoto include medium telephoto and super telephoto

super telephoto lens covers fewer degrees than a medium telephoto

the lens magnifies the image and creates a shorter focal length

Depth of Field

distance between nearest and farthest object in a scene that appears acceptably sharp in an image.

large depth of field is when all objects are in focus

shallow depth of field mean maybe only one object is in focus or even a part of the object

The zoom and apeture within the picture can control the depth of field
