 Requirement 1 Focus on the Foreground 

We recently had a lot of flower bouquets in my home since they were birthday celebrations. In the first photo, I took a picture of these little white flowers in the bouquet. The background is out of focus. I photographed a Virginia Pepperweed from a different flower bouquet in the second photo. The background is out of focus as well. 

Requirement 2: Focus on the Midground:

For this photo, I focused on the green plant in the middle that was surrounded by colorful flowers. The background of the picture is blurred and the foreground is blurred as well. 

Requirement 3: Bugs 

This was an attempt to photograph a butterfly when the project was initially set months ago. There were no bugs at my home to look for as of recently.

Requirement 4: Plants

This is my mother's oregano plant growing in the home. I wanted to show the texture of the leaves. You can see the difference between a mature and a baby leaf on the plant.

Requirement 5: Man-Made Objects 

This is my ring. It was given to me by my mother as a graduation gift. I like the unique and the sort of antique look of the ring. 

Evelyn_ Night and Color

 Requirement 1: Outside Night Scene of Nature

This first picture of the tree was illuminated by a garage light in my driveway. It presents shadows and the light illuminates only on one side of the tree. The second picture of the tree was taken at Creekmore Park in Fort Smith and is angled upwards. The tree was next to a Christmas Light that was red and gave the reddish hue to the tree. 

Requirement 2: Outdoor Night Scene of Architecture

This image was taken in Downtown Van Buren at Chapters on Main Bookstore. I also really liked the signs and the light surrounding the area. Second picture is a building further into Downtown Van Buren.

Requirement 3: HDR Photography:

The first picture was taken at Creekmore Park in Fort Smith. I liked the coloring of the red and also how simplistic it was. The second image was taken in Downtown Van Buren, this light display was set up in a dark area somewhat away from other surrounding displays in the area. I wanted this light display to be the main subject since it was also angled to be in between two lamposts.

 Requirement 1: S Curve 

The S curve is present with the road beside the tree but the natural curves of the tree branches are also presented in the picture. 

Requirement 2: Panorama

I shot a panorama of an open field in Ben Geren Regional Park

Requirement 3: Texture 

I captured a close-up of an interesting moss formation on a rock. It had a unique texture. 

Requirement 4: Golden Hour 

This was taken while crossing the Arkansas Bridge during sunset

Requirement 1: Vanishing Point

(All pictures were taken on iPhone 13 pro)

It was pretty cloudy yesterday and casted a weird light at this moment. This is the Old Crawford County Bank in downtown Van Buren. 

Frame 2:  No Vertical Vanishing Point

A shot of the building without a vanishing point

Requirement 3: Framed Shot

Under the Main Street & Fudge Store in Van Buren, Framed shot through the awnings on this side of the street. 

Requirement 4: Repeating Patterns 

 I found these abandoned building in downtown Van Buren, I saw this on the side of building, and I found it interesting. The brick is a pattern, but I also liked how these brown frames were there together.

Requirement 5: Panorama

This was inside Iron Horse Records in Van Buren, I did a panorama in the back part of the store, and I didn't want to accidentally capture a photo of the worker there. 

Evelyn_ Portraits

Requirement 1 (Indoor Traditional Portrait): All photos were taken on an iPhone 13 Pro camera. This is my little cousin Deila, I had an old studio light but I didn't want to put too much light on her since she blushed a lot during this photo. 

Requirement 2 (Indoor Natural Light Portrait): A different angle of Deila's face. She is in front of a window with some sunlight on her face, but it is cloudy today. 

Requirement 3 (Outdoor Available Light Portrait): Again it was a bit cloudy outside so that did affect a little bit of the light in the photo. 

Requirement 4 (Flash + Ambient) (Candid shot): With the flash on my phone, I did my best to not have the flash directly into her face. This is also a candid shot, she is here looking at her favorite cousin, my sister. 

Evelyn_Bad Photos

 

Image 1 (Requirement 1) Taken on iphone 13 Pro 

My mom enjoying the beach in El Salvador. This photo is underexposed and mostly all dark. It does not show my mom well but I kept this photo because I like how my mom looks and how it shows the water glistening in the sun. 

Image 2 (Requirement 2) Taken on iphone 13 Pro

The Two White Flowers. This photo is motion-blurred and I moved my phone to capture this photo. These flowers are one of my favorite flowers so I wanted to see how it would look blurred. 

Image 3 (Requirement 3) Taken on iphone 13 Pro

Out of Focus Cyanotype prints from the album Indigo by RM. I visually loved the aesthetic of his album and I also like cyanotypes, I tried my best to take the picture out of focus. 

Image 4 (Requirement 4) taken on iphone 13 Pro

My sister looking at art. This is my younger sister Athziry, for this photo I intentionally used the wrong white balance. It made the room look cooler than warm. There was actually a warmer light in this section of the museum. 

Image 5 (Requirement 5) 

A Wall Full of Art. I purposely made the composition not good. Didn't angle the photo well and the photo is slightly zoomed in. I also angled it to cut off some of the art on the wall.
