Action shots

TV Mode, 1/500s, f4.5, Auto ISO

Manual Mode, 1/500s, f-stop auto, 800 ISO

Manual Mode, 1/500s, f-stop auto, 800 ISO

1. My favorite picture is the one where the ball has just barely left Claudio's hand because it is a cool image and you can see that just let go of it.
2. The subject was in focus with a blurry background for most of them except for the one where you can see Claudio clearly but the ball is blurry, I would have to set the focus on the ball to make it not blurry.
3. I took the picture from 2 different angles I took the pictures of Claudio straight on and I took the pictures of Trevor from the side. I like both angles because the picture of Claudio looks like he is throwing the ball at the camera and the angle of the picture of Trevor aligns with the pinwheel Trevor is blowing on.

Reflection

Throughout the year I have always tried to be creative and unique with my projects like choosing to put Lebron in my snow globe rather than just using Olaf. My knowledge and ability to use photoshop have definitely increased throughout the year starting with just applying filters and now being able to remove a background and photoshop in a new one. I have tried to always to learn as much as I can about taking better photos and better using photoshop. My subjects of most of my photoshop projects such as the ones I applied filters to are sports stars because I am a big fan of sports. I pay attention in class and help Claudio when he needs help with photoshop. I definitely try to be efficient with my class time and always do what I can to take the best photos.
