Newspaper

Front Pages of World

What is your favorite newspaper front page? Why? 
My favorite newspaper front page is in Europe, mostly because they have more pictures to look at an catch's your attention more and has little descriptions on each side of the pictures.

What is your favorite headline from that newspaper? Why are you interested in it? 

My favorite headline is Gripna I Kaoset I Natt, this because of the picture that interests me their is lots of fire and lots of ambulance and I am curious of what happened and what that title means. 

How many stories are on the front page of your favorite? 

Their 5 stories in the front cover and my favorite is Gripna I Kaoset I Natt.

What do you notice that all newspaper front pages have in common? Look at design, size of photos, size of story text, etc.

They all have very big pictures and some sort of disaster is happening either involving someone or many places. There isn't lots of text in the cover pages and they all have sort of the same design/format of newspaper. 

What are things that vary (or are different) on the front pages of different newspapers? Look at design, size of photos, size of headlines, etc.
Some front pages have lots of text and only 2 or 3 pictures only, they have different formats of newspaper mostly involving texts. The headlines are same don't really catch much of the viewers attention like the others do.

Lens & Photography Vocabulary

• I would use a telephoto lens to take pictures in the night in a football game not that far away since it looks close and i wouldn't zoom because it will look less realistic.
• I would use a prime lens to take a picture of my subject that is near me since their is so zoom. 
• I would use a wide-angle lens to capture an environment or something large in order to get the complete scene. 

• Depth of Field (shallow and wide)- Depth of field is a characteristic of a camera that can be used to enhance the image composition of the photo. The depth of field is used to focus on pictures more closely on the subject rather than the sharp edges around it. 
• Light (angle and intensity)-measures of light are commonly known as intensity. This lens are used when their is good enough light because if it's dark the subject won't be seen that clearly. 
• Shadows 
  Diffusion- 
  absences of light, opposite of light , they impact photography you need to be aware of them.  Are good to use in dark subjects because it will be able to capture the subject in dim lights. 
• Exposure- 
  The state of being exposed to contact with something. 
• Aperture (f-stop)- 
  is the diaphragm in your camera that widens and narrows to determine depth of field.
• Shutter speed- 
  In photography, shutter speed is a common term used to discuss exposure time, the effective length of time a camera's shutter is open.
• ISO-
   measures the sensitivity of the image sensor.

Five Websites

Lens Flare

• In this website I looked at several pictures they all had a flare in some part of the picture. Mostly every picture has a very bright background that makes the subject of the picture stand out. There is some pictures that are dark but still have some what of flare in it and still makes the subject of the picture stand out. 
• I learned that even if your background is dark you can still get a flare and a good picture of the subject you wanted to see and still be clear even if its dark. 
• I picked this picture because I like how the buildings has a flare from both sides and how everything is so bright with a lot of lights.
• I see the rule lines, framing, rule of thirds, balance, and background. 
• Paul (Dex) took this picture. 

B&W Landscapes 

• The pictures I saw in this website are very interesting they're all outside in some sort of storm of different types of weather. All of this images are black and white but they still show the main subject of the picture and manage to grab your attention. Each picture also is in a different landscape like a desert, rain forest, or mountains. 
• I learned that you can get really good pictures even if the weather is horrible or if its raining or snowing you can still mange to get a pretty good picture. 
• I picked this picture because it grabbed my attention on how the person can get a view of the mountains with a pattern of the fog.
• I see the rules framing, background, and viewpoints.
• Joe Azure took this picture. 

Image Stacking

• This website didn't really have a lot of pictures but this one was the one that caught my attention the most. While looking at this website i concentrated on the details of each picture. 
• I never knew that a picture can look like the water has lines threw it since when water flows done it goes by really fast.
• I picked this picture because of how the water looks like and how the water looks like it has stripes.
• This picture has the rules lines and framing.
• Doesn't say

Storms

• On this website their were pictures of storms or clouds that looked like a storm was about to happen. While looking at these pictures I concentrated on the one's i would have liked to take.
• I learned that you can get a picture of clouds touching hills.
• I picked this picture because I've never seen a picture like this with clouds touching the hills it looks really pretty.
• The rules I see are framing, background and balance.
• Axel Kuhlmann 

Storms

• The website i was one was all about storms and how they look during or before a store. When I was looking at these pictures i was looking for ones that look ironic or impossible.
• I learned that you can get a picture of a storm and clouds at the same time in the same picture.
• I picked this picture because I thought this could never happen be raining on one side and in the other its sunny and seeing it in picture looks pretty amazing.
• The rules i see are framing, background, and rule of thirds.

My favorite song is One Thing by One Direction. This is my favorite song because I love One Direction and i can connect with this song. This song attracted me because well its One Direction and I like them. I think they sing really good but this is their best song that they sing.

Favorite Movie

This is my favorite movie because it very interesting first of all and i like all the action in it. Also because Taylor Lautner is in it and he acts really good. I had also seen all the movies before this one and was interested in what was going to happen next. 

Important Story

This is the most important story the Connecticut shooting in the elementary. This is the most important to me because it shows everybody that its not save anymore and that a tragedy can happen anytime. This is also a new way to figure out that their should be more security at school for the children's sake.
