When it comes to double exposure, it is sometimes very difficult to find a image that fits with the person. It is difficult because it is important to have a second image follow the curve of their heads. It is also important when it comes to shadows and light exposure because the image should match it like the first picture. I learned about how to make images match and how to take a simple image and make it look interesting. I learned how to use the blending modes and how to use different color backgrounds. Overall, I learned how to use photoshop better than before and utilize blending skills.

This picture was difficult because of how many pictures i needed to take. It was kind of difficult to make it look like a Hockney collage because we weren’t supposed to make it look like an actual image. i learned how to keep a more steady hand when shooting. I also learned that sometimes the best picture can be taken just right outside. I also learned that for next time to take a picture of the subject and peice the object together with the background behind it.

When taking color photos, I had to figure out the different angles to put the light. For the bottom picture I had to move the red light more in front of will and push the green light more towards the back. For the top picture at pushed the green and blue behind will for it to be like a hair light. I learned the using color lighting looks better than regular lighting.

When photographing Will, I had to raise the light higher because of his height. It took a few tries to get the lighting correct, because sometimes shadows would be too big or the shine would be too bright. I also learned that the camera lies, sometimes when it looks to be in focus it is not, and I had to work around that, spending more time and effort into the pictures.

Butterfly lighting- Catchlights in the eye, light is directly in front of person.

Rembrandant lighting-crews a triangle on the cheek of the right side, light is higher than subject and tilted down.

Split lighting-coming from one direction, light is to the side if the person and the umbrella is to the side

Short lighting- The face has less shadow and persons face is turned towards the light

Broad lighting-light is to the side and covers most of the face in light, turned away from the light
