1st Hour, Digital Photography
Frank Parkinson, 1st Hour, O'Donnell In this assignment I was tasked with taking pictures of Still Life. Still life photography is a genre of photography defined as taking pictures of inanimate subjects, such as food. Many photos under the genre focus on filling the frame, using multiple subjects, and depth of field. Lighting is also an extremely important part of Still Life photography. One can conclude that Still Life photography focuses more on your ability to set up the subject and its scene, as well as a create a story, then capturing any moment in time. Original:Aperture: f/5.6 Shutter Speed: 1/30 ISO: 560 *No edits made to the original photo* Honorable Mentions: To capture some pictures of still life I set up a white background, a tripod, some lighting, and used various subjects. I also researched more about the genre of Still Life to learn more and took some inspiration from the photos I saw. I thought the shoot went very well. I was able to incorporate many aspects I wanted to, such as depth of field, filling the frame, and shadows, etc. One variable the affected the shoot was light and background. I had to take many shots for most of my photo ideas to get the right angle, so that the background wasn't exposed and the lighting and shadows were just right. Lastly I learned some valuable knowledge in lighting, angles, depth of field, filling the frame, and many other Still Life photography related skills
