 Last week in the visit to the library I chose this book to read it because it seem pretty interesting. I actually did not have the chance to see a photographer's work in a book so for me reading this book and looking to the photographs was very exciting. The name of this book Japan 1945 and the author is Joe O'Donnell. This book is about how Japan was after the Pacific War. Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Fukuoka, and Sasebo where the main cities he photographed in Japan. After reading this book I was shook of how Japanese people were leaving after the war. One of the photographs below shows a young boy carrying his death little brother the power that this image portray it really fascinating. Looking at the other photograph for me there are no words to explain how I felt after seeing this image. It was really hard to image the pain and suffering this fourteen young boy was passing. Of all the photographs I saw in the book these two were the ones that make a huge impact in my life because I really like Japanese culture, so seeing how much Japanese people had to suffer after the war was really interesting.

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 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.
