I Smell

I smell the desert air come across my nose. I smell the heat coming from the burning sun, it doesn't get much hotter than this. I smell the food I brought with me but I know I won't eat until I make this perfect, I smell the hot, uncomfortable air rise to my nose.

I smell the cold air run through my nose and make my lips dry. I smell the snow from the mountain, it freezes at the tip of my mouth and makes me thirsty. I smell the reward I will get once I create this photo, I smell the 14 degrees pass all around me. 

I See

 I see the shadow of the deformed tree on the rocks. I see the tree try its hardest to stay up, but I know it will fall someday. I see the branches of the tree  fall off one at a time, I take the picture as soon as i can too keep the tree alive.
I see the magnificent mountain in the distance, along with the still water that reflects the mountain. I see the journey it would take to climb up that huge landform. I see how small the lake looks compared to the mountain, it isn't even close to the same size.

I Feel

I feel troubled when looking at this photo, like something is not right. I think it is because the way the tree looks, it makes me feel worried like something bad just happened. Looking at this photo I feel like I'm worried about something but can't put my finger on what it is so it drives me crazy.

 I feel the cold air touch my face as I move the camera to the angle I want. It's freezing cold and i feel my warm breath leave my mouth, I breath into my hands to keep them warm. Once I take the photo I can't feel the cold anymore, I only feel the success and excitement because I had just taken an amazing picture.

Great Black and White Photographers PART 3

 I was very interested in this photo when I saw it. One thing that caught my eye was when I looked at the water I could see what looks like a reflection of the mountain. I thought that was really cool because it meant the water was incredibly still, thats something I would really want to see in person.



I liked this photo because it looks like the tree is swaying due to a strong wind, and it makes the picture look very interesting. Also, the black and white really makes the picture look much more interesting and sophisticated.

ISO Cont.

1. The advantage of shooting at a higher ISO at a night football game is that you can have a good amount of light since your camera is more sensitive.

2. The author said you should always try to stick to the lowest ISO, like 100 or 200, and when there is enough light you should shoot in low ISO.

3. The author said you should only use high ISO when there is not enough light where you are, like if it's night time or it's a little dark.
