post photo shoot reflection

1. When i was trying to take pictures of my 4 prompts there were a few challenges. One of them was trying to find a good angle of the subject. Another challenge was trying to figure what to take a picture of because I didn't want to take a picture of some thing really obvious, so I had to be creative and take pictures of something that you would not see in everyone's picture. I also found it kind of hard to get the main subject to really stand out and getting a good background.

2. I found it kind of difficult to focus on the main subject and not the things in the background. Another thing that was difficult was framing. It was difficult because I didn't know how much I should zoom in and out and.

3. If I could go back and re do this shoot, I would really focus on simplicity and The Rule of Thirds. I would make sure to find a good background that would not interact with the main subject. For the Rule of Thirds, I would focus on not getting the subject right in the middle. I could move the camera around to find a good angle.

4. I would take pictures of the same subject. But this time I would really work on the things I mentioned above.

5. On the "square" picture I think I achieved the simplicity rule. The background was just plain green plants and the sign really stood out and did not interact with the thinks in the background. On the "metal" picture I achieved the balance rule.

6. I would like to shoot these same prompts again. I would like to do this so we can try focusing and using the rules of composition the next time.
