 Complete the following sentence on your post-it: At first I was ________________________ about photography but now I __________________________________.  Choose your top five photographs to share with the class.

 Too much light can overwhelm a photo site, making its measurement inaccurate. This will lead to overexposed areas. White areas in a image with no other reading information, can not be edited.  Too little light hitting on the photo site will cause it to record randomly, often colored pixels called noise. This is not a true black but a pixelated mixture to a make blackish color. Not enough light will cause an underexposure image.

 The exposure is the combination of the aperture setting (f-stop) and the shutter speed (1/sec).  Overexposure can happen when you give the image too much light. This is a bright or reflective area that makes the sensor overwhelmed.  Underexposure happens when it is a darker environment. This make the sensor make up information, making noise filled blacks.

Whole F-Stops Numbers in between are ½ or ¼ sizes.

 Use a hand held meter.  Use a grey card to meter the light.  Find an app on your phone to meter, but check it with you camera setting too. Remember the Digital Photo Saying: “Expose for the highlights and Process for the shadows” This is important because you can always work with the information in the shadows, but the highlights will not always have the digital information to edit later.

Taking several photographs of the same scene at different exposure settings, some greater than and some less than the setting indicated by the meter, to ensure at least one well-exposed frame.

 transparent filters that block ultra-violet light, in order to reduce the haziness

 used to darken overly light skies as it increases the contrast between clouds and the sky. Like the UV filter, the Polarizer reduces atmospheric haze, but also reduces reflected sunlight

 compensates for the various differences in the photographed color of light (e.g. daylight is cooler and appears blue, whereas tungsten is warmer and appears reddish orange). The 85B (warm-up/orange filter) and the 80A (cool-down/blue filter) are the two standard filters for compensating for color balancing.  Fallen out of use

 neutral density (ND) filter to your lens uniformly reduces the amount of light entering the lens.  The ND filter is helpful when the contrast between the highlights and shadows is too great to get a quality exposure.  The ND Filter also can enable greater motion blurring and image detail by allowing a large aperture and/or a slow shutter speed to be used

 reduce the sharpness of an image, but only to an extent that is barely noticeable.  They are useful in shooting close up shots of people’s faces. With the help of a little diffusion; imperfect skin conditions are replaced by silky smooth skin.

Photo Montage

 Zoom-in as you move the camera and frame  Shoot everything; the photos you have to work with the better  You can always choose to omit a photo later

Photo Montage Photographer includes parts of himself in the photograph.

Photo Montage

Student Examples

Hockney Inspired Photo Montage Consider the following questions: 1.Give a few examples of how “parts affect the whole” in real life (a cake is an example). 2.How do shutter speed, ISO, and aperture affect the exposure of your photography? 3.In a photomontage how do the many images represent a narrative?

Assignment: Hockney Inspired Photo Montage Directions Work by yourself or with a partner Scope out a location and select a subject Take at least twenty photographs of your subject from different angles. Think about composition: balance, emphasis, focal point Upload your photographs to the computer: ◦You can print the photographs and create the collage by hand ◦You can you use a photo program (discussed session #6) and layer your photographs ◦You may use an online program ◦ ◦ ◦
