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 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 sma...

  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...

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.    ...
