Reaction Paper Museum Visit.        Last month I had the opportunity to visit the Museum of Modern Art for the first time in New York City. I really wanted to go there mostly because of the paint by Vincent Van Gogh The Starry Night. It was interesting to see a lot of art work from different incredible artists around the world. The visit to MOMA was a good experience for me because it was the first time to see other people work in a museum and I learned a lot about other artist I did not know.       The Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh I think was one of the most famous painting in the whole museum. I was really excited to see this painting because one of my best friend who lives in Maryland was always telling me she wanted to come to New York City to go and see that painting. At first I was expecting to see a huge painting, but then when I saw the painting in person it was actually smaller than I though. Almost every person in the room was more focused on that painting and I noticed

 Reaction Paper No. 2 Gallery Visit       Last week I had the opportunity of visit the art Gallery where it has been exhibiting the professors' art work. It was really interesting because it was the first time I saw some of the work my professors do. I saw two art pieces of my professor from ART130 professor Soterakis  her work is truly amazing the way she used collage and oil paint into her work was really fascinating. Also I got to see one photograph by Professor Lopez and it was really touching for me because he is one of the reasons I decided to take photography as my major I really loved seeing his work.      All the art pieces in the gallery were fantastic and some of the a little bit expensive. I had the chance to see how much it costs some of the pieces and I was somehow amazed by how much money some pieces cost, but looking at the quality of the art piece that was   done and I imagine how much time this person worked to finished it I think the price was good. I do not

 In my Digital Materials and Processes class I had to do an assignment about Digital Noise. Noise is created by using high ISO and slow shutter speed, so for this assignment I had to shot 4 different images with different ISO. For the first image I shot I used an ISO of 100, for the second one an ISO of 400, for the third one ISO set in 800 and for the last one the highest ISO in my camera, but actually I could not use the highest ISO in my camera because the image was too white so I used a 3200 ISO. At first sight one cannot differentiate the Noise in the images, but if one look closely and look at the  shadows   of the images in two images the shadows look grainy       and that   is because of the Noise created by the high ISO. Also, another difference I noticed is that the file sizes of the images were different even though I shot all my images in RAW, so I asked myself what was the cause of that and the reason why some of the images had a bigger file size was because of the Nois

Last Saturday one of my friends and I went to Port Jefferson to shoot some photographs for a project while walking in the village I find this place and I took a picture because of how the door looks like kind of mysterious. Also, I liked how in the left part of the image one can see a beautiful white door, but in then there is this house with this old door and it looks really interesting for me.

Reaction Paper: Studio Visit     On Monday October the 23rd I had the opportunity to visit for the first time a photographer's studio. At first the studio was not actually what I had expected because I thought it will be bigger and with more equipment. The photographer that we visited was Jim Lennon I find out how great photographer he was. It was really interesting to hear what he was telling the class about how to run a studio and how much it costs to run one.      One of the things that captivated more my attention was wen he said that before going to a meeting with the company he was working with for him was really helpful to do some research about that company. I find that really interesting because I thought that he was right showing how much of a professional you are and that you really are interested in working with a company it's can show a great impression in other people when you know about what this company is about and what they do.     I was really surprised of

  On Saturday I had the great opportunity to go for the first time to the Empire State Building the view was incredible I shoot as many pictures as I could, but the first two were my favorites. I just really loved how the buildings look and to see everything symmetrical was really interesting. For the third image I liked the composition a lot and how the image turned out to look pretty good. I like the sunset and the contrast of the bridge and the ship at the left this image and I think it works really well.
