Landscape in terms of photography can be anything that includes a clear form of land. Landscape can be anything from a wide open span of grass, to a sharp peak out the middle of nowhere. Ansel Adams was a landscape photographer, well known for his black and white images of national parks and landscapes. He mostly photographed nature of American West, Grand Canyon in Arizona and, his favorite, Yosemite National Park. Ansel Adams was my inspiration for my images. I focused more on flatter landscapes, like fields and forests, but my images still show landscape. I took my first image by Hodenpyle Dam Lake. It is by far my best example of landscape, as well as my photography in general. It includes much more water than land, which I wish I could change, but it is definitely the best example nonetheless.

My pictures are not the highest of quality, the hard part about taking pictures with an obsolete device is that the lighting has to be artificial. I feel like they are at least acceptable and I am proud about how much I managed with such inferior abilities. My favorite is the picture of my bird. I feel like it is some of my higher quality work.
I created most of the letters for my pictures, which I know wasn't supposed to happen, but this assignment was like playing "I Spy" with the world. For my word I wanted to do how I felt about this assignment, "Depressed." But, technology failed me again, so I did "depress" instead. Otherwise, I am completely impressed that I even got anything done with this assignment, so I think that it is pretty unsuccessful in terms of following the rules.
Faceless Formal Environmental Candid For the Portrait project I was limited to people that I find at home. My favorite was the faceless, my dad was lighting the Buddha candle for another photo and the dark lighting with the lighter added emphasis on that are of the picture to distract people from the background.
For the assignment on mood, I focused on many types of subjects. I portrayed lazy as a sleeping cat, calm as a burning Buddha candle, gloomy as the picture of a cloudy day, depressed with my pouting dog, and joy as the smiles on the toy kitchen supplies. My favorite and most likely the strongest is the picture of the Buddha statue, the light flare puts lots of emphasis on the photo itself and brings out the calm feeling that I was trying to get at.
For my animal pictures I was trying to get them in positions that they would hold still the most. My favorite one would be the fourth one because the cat looks like it is two cats. I feel like I could have cropped out a lot of the background in the second one. I tried to put as much emphasis on the animals as possible.
I created my framing images by cropping together most of my previous images from other projects to form a frame, some of them better than others. The most successful one would have to be the one with the bell as the framed picture, because it has the advantages of form and other techniques while still being the average framing picture. The worst one, out of all of these terrible pictures, is the one with the big M in the door window, more or less because of the terrible photo-shop job on it.
For the color project I used mostly solid colors. All of the pictures are very vibrant and colorful, but the strongest was the green chair. The chair had a lot of texture in addition to color.
