In my Digital Material and Processes class I had to shoot this assignment where I had to use a Gray Card for exposure control and metering. I find this assignment very interesting because while shooting it I could see the difference between using a gray card to meter a subject so I could know what exposure to use. Even thought I used the same ISO, F-stop, and Shutter Speed for these two images they came to look very different. In the first picture where I did not use the gray card the image was sharp, but I could not see a lot of details in her face, while in the second picture where I used the gray card her face looked totally different it had more light and I could see a lot of details in her face. I had a lot of fun shooting this assignment and I learned how to use white balance and metering my subjects and how a gray card can be of so much help while shooting in sunlight.

 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...

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.

  In my Digital Materials & Processes class, I'm shooting an assignment related with Color of Light. For this assignment I have to shoot different images in different situations and change the white balance to auto, daylight, and light specific. For these three images I shoot my subject under a fluorescent lamp and changing my white balance for auto(First image), daylight(second image), and specific light that was fluorescent(third image). What I find in changing the white balance for these three photographs, is that sometimes even though we don't care about white balance and always set the camera in auto I think that for some situations the white balance in auto it's not going to work out,  so it's really helpful to learn how to set different kinds of white balance in a camera.  Looking at these three images I realized that what works better is white balanc...
