The light paintings created by Jason D. Page stood out to me out of the other photographers work. He is from Newport News, Virginia, and has been a light painter ever since 2004, when he discovered the streaks of light that long exposures could form. I especially like that he mainly focuses on light painting with landscapes. He is known as a leader in the light painting movement.

Sally Mann was born in Lexington, Virginia. The focus of her work is mainly on the vulnerability of the young girls pictured, as well as the strength young girls carry with them. I believe the black and white photos and the strong lighting draws more attention to the highlights in the images and makes them more unique and meaningful.
BULB F29 ISO 2oo 10" F20 ISO 200 3.2" F22 ISO 200 To paint with light and photograph it, I had to work with several different f-stops, shutter speeds, ISO, and lighting. We were successful with capturing the light within photography, but there are some things that could be improved. For example, a slower shutter speed causes the background light to filter in more, instead of the background being completely dark. Also, there are spots across the images.
For this experiment, my group chose to take photographs outside for better lighting affects. We adjusted the ISO and aperture settings and practiced using gold, silver, white, and black reflectors as well as a light diffuser. Reflectors are used for bouncing light off the surface and onto the subject being photographed. The purpose of this assignment was to practice our skills and improving on different ways to take photographs. I think these photos turned out well because most of the subject's face is not in shadow, and my group was successful with using reflectors.
I like these photographs taken by Edward Weston because they are in black and white, which I feels gives them more depth and makes them more unique. I also am intrigued by the texture and emphasis put on them by the black and white filter. Each photograph is very elaborate, and you can see every detail in the photographs.
To create this photo, I used iMovie and a green screen image to make the final product possible. This was challenging because I have never experimented with either iMovie or green screens. I had to position the girl on the broom in a way that might seem realistic, and determine how to use the green screen to insert the background image.
For this photograph, I experimented with masking on Photoshop. I liked the process as well as the result. Once I understood the process, the concept was very easy for me to grasp. I liked the different tools and overall it was fun to learn. I chose this photo because it is simple yet in my opinion, a good one to use for masking.
For this image, I used Photoshop to layer texture over an image. I lowered the opacity of the tree trunk to give the illusion that the flower is textured.
These photographs taken by Josef Sudek portray eggs as the main focus and shines light on the subject to make them appear mysterious and important. In the first image, the shadows create lines in the background and the shadows on the egg are very distinct. The egg below the vase has a reflection on it and a very detailed shadow. In the second image, the shadows are in the middle of the egg and the light is around the egg which gives it a calm vibe. I like these photographs because they are very professional, especially because they are of eggs.
David Hockney and Masumi Hayashi both photograph images to be put together in photo collages. However, they have different techniques. Hockney isn't precise with his collages, while Hayashi is. Also, Hockney works with moments and Hayashi works with mainly landscapes.
