1st Hour, Digital Photography
Frank Parkinson, 1st Hour, O'Donnell In this assignment I was tasked with taking pictures and putting them in black and white. Black and White photography is a genre of photography defined as taking pictures of nature, architecture, etc. and putting them into black and white using an editing software, such as but not limiting to photoshop. In black and white photography framing, depth of field, and contrast are all huge aspects that are used by photographers to create great black and white photos. Lighting is also a huge part of black and white photography, because if a photo is over exposed the contrast will be off. Original:Aperture: f/5.6 Shutter Speed: 1/30 ISO: 1100 Edited:Honorable Mentions:To capture some pictures for black and white I grabbed my camera, tripod, and raincoat and took to the neighborhood. I knew that a lot of great black and white photos deal with nature or architecture so I replicated that be taking pictures around my house. I thought the shoot went very well. I was able to incorporate many aspects I wanted to, such as depth of field, framing, and texture. One variable the affected the shoot was the weather. I ha to put on my raincoat, cover the camera, and bring an umbrella to keep myself and the camera try. Also it took me a lot longer to set up my tripod and the angle, because I needed to keep the camera dry.Lastly I learned some valuable knowledge in depth of field, framing, texture, and many other Black and White photography related skills.

The DOF is really nice on the first photo. There's so much to look at in it and it really keeps the viewer interested. But the contrast throughout the photo is a little greyed out. I would have liked to see more whites and blacks instead so many grey's throughout the photo. But the composition is wonderful!
