Portrait and self portrait intro

2-3 best tips:

1) Experiment with Lighting
2) Experiment with subject expressions
3) Use a reflective surface for a cool effect

Environmental Portraits:
       I like this picture because of the lines leading up to the boxer in the corner and how the boxer looks very at home in his natural element.













 I like this picture because of the cool lighting and how the subject looks like she's genuinely having fun.










Self Portraits:

I think this picture is really interesting because of the background and how we can see underwater a little bit too.









  I like this picture because of the pretty colors in the forest and also the effect it gives viewers. It's very impactful.












Casual Portraits:
I like this picture because of the child's expression and how he focuses on the flower.











I like this picture because of how simple it is and the line effect leading up to the subject. How the subject leans is cool too.

















Plan for portrait assignment:
My plan for the portrait part of the assignment is to take a picture of my brother's face in front of our distressed backyard fence. The last time I did this assignment, I think my biggest struggle was that I chose a complicated background, which I won't do this time. For my self portrait, I want to take a picture of myself with just my head showing coming up from the pool, and possibly with another subject in that picture too. I had thought about this picture the last time, but it didn't work out, so I think I will try and do it this time. I love to swim, and hopefully that self portrait can be a gateway to summer.

Car raid

Avery Shelton has had her favorite silver Toyota Forerunner since 2015. Her car has traveled with her as she has grown and has served her well. Shelton’s family bought her car in 2015, and it’s been used by her family almost every day. “My family uses our car all the time,” Shelton said. “We use it for simple things such as going to the store, but also on big trips across the country.” The car is tidy, but has dilapidated grey seats. “Since we use our car so much, we often find that it gets a little run-down,” Shelton said. “We always try to keep it as clean as possible though.” Shelton has three sisters who can make life in the car quite difficult. “The biggest downside about the car is that my sisters always take up so much room,” Shelton said. “They’re so loud and make a ton of messes in the car.” A cinnamon-scented car diffuser dangles from the mirror, filling the car with a delicious smell. “We love our diffuser so much,” Shelton said. “I think it ...

C.E. 4.1

Short Answer: 1. La Veta, Colorado 2. This cartoon is making fun of what President Trump said about having a 'bigger button' than Kim Jong Un, and that made him sound idiotic.  3. Bobby Levinski, Ellen Troxclair, Rich DePalma, and Shane Sexton. 4. Seven Players were chosen. They're Sabrina Bianco, Avery McKenzie, Caitlin Godwin, Kandace Blackburn, Keara McGraw, Kyndall Johnson, and Emily Swift.  5. I'd like to own the Fitbit and the Gopro because I know how the regular products work, and those seem like really advanced pieces of technology. The Gopro is useful for skiing, and the fitbit would be useful for getting back into exercise.  Long Response: 1. The name of the book is called: " Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House" 2. Trump's lawyer says that the book includes false statements about Trump, therefore "give rise to claims for libel". For that reason, Trump doesn't want the book to go out. 3. I think in some cases, ye...
