Light Paint Orb.

Frame Shot.

Water Drop.

rule of thirds and frame shots

This is a frame shot which consists of a person being in between two objects creating the image of a natural frame. this particular shot was taken in college on the staircase, All of the photos where taken on a cannon HD DSLR camera.

This is another frame shot, I used a chain link of a swing in a park to create a frame around the eye of the person which i was taking the shots of. the main focus of this frame shot is the eye.

This frame shot is focused on the actual frame and nothing else in particular, i particularly like this shot because of the sharpness of the gate poles i used.

This frame shot was another shot taken through the eye of a swings chain link. it is out of focus but i feel works well with the frame and the shot.

This is a rule of thirds shot, the rule of thirds means that the shot is focused on the object which is positioned on either the right or the left hand side of the shot like this photo.

This is a frame shot where the fingers are the frame and the shot is focused on the followers which are hanging from the lamp post.

Frame Shot; using two different objects as a frame, the parks gate and the signs posts.

For this frame shot I put my focus in between two telephone boxes which i feel made a very nice frame.

This is also another frame shot which was taken thought a park gate but this particular part of the gate had a very nice design which works very well as a frame.

This is a rule of thirds shot but this shot is concentrating on the tree positioned on the left hand side of the photograph.

Another rule of third shot which i took was of this pattern which was drawn into the pavement when the concrete was still wet, i feel it made an effective third rule shot.

Capturing water drops

These photos where captured whilst a drip of water was falling from the air, in order to capture these shots I used a DSLR cannon HD camera i set the shutter speed to 1/250 which enabled the camera to capture the moment which the drop of water hit the puddle. i also used spot lights to make the image clearer.

                                      

Orb Paintings

The technique i used in order to achieve these orb painting pictures; firstly i set the DSLR camera to AS, auto focus the i set my iso to 100 and then i set my shutter speed to 20 seconds, these where the settings i used on my camera to capture these orb like images. to create the orb i had to have all lights turned of in the room and also i used two pieces of strings and on the end of each piece of string i had a small torch which i had to switch on before the picture then when i was finished i had to either catch the small torch in my hand or switch them off. i done the same process to achieve two orbs in one picture but i had to use a partner to repeat the process next to me. To make the light in the shape of an orb i had to spin the string with the torch on continuously whilst i had to make a 360 degree turn.

Light paintings

These pictures where taken in a pitch black room using a canon HD camera which was carefully placed on a Tripod. The Camera was on TV setting ISO 30". The way i achieved the lights effect was through using different types of torches and LV lights.

Blurred, Panned and Shutter zoom.

Blurred Shot: These three images were taken at ISO 1/40, in order to achieve these blurred shots i had to hold the camera completely still and pick the perfect moment to catch the object spot on in the middle of the picture it took quite a few attempts but once i got one the rapidly came fast. 

Panned Shot: These next three images were taken at ISO 1/20, In order to achieve this shot i had to follow the moving object with my camera whilst taking the actual picture it took a few attempts for me to achieve a good paned shot.

This images was taken at ISO 1/30 i used a technique called slow shutter zoom slow shutter zoom which makes the out side of the object which is being captured and concentrated on a swurvy effect which works really well as a picture.

Music Downloads

Music Downloading!

 It is Illegal to download music from torrent sites, downloading illegal music is now illegal and if caught could lead to a possible conviction and a staggering fine. People caught downloading music illegally can be fined up to £3000.

Ninety five percent of music downloaded online is illegal! Under The copyright, Designs and patents Act 1988 as amended by the copyright and trademarks act 2002. This law makes it legal to convict illegal music down loader’s.

  

The pros for downloading music illegally is that you can get and listen to your favourite songs for free, the cons are the artist wont be able to make there money for the song and also the record labels would loose income and profit.

BSkyB Rupert Murdock

Dear MP

I am writing this email to launch an attack on the very controversial Rupert Murdock, who is currently attempting to take of the BSkyB network as I feel he is not suitable to run this company and simply should not be allowed to own a new/media corporation, which have over ¾ of the world’s population. The reason why I feel not only Rupert Murdock but any one person to own and be in charge of so much of the worlds media and news is because the world will be getting the news that he feels is necessary for the world to see and hear about. Also haven’t we seen what sort of person this man is, I am referring to the news of the world phone hacking scandal. Being able to hack a Milley Dowlers phone, deleting messages and also listening to phone calls and by giving this poor girls family false hope that there child is still alive is disgusting and he should be in prison in my opinion. He also breached privacy laws such as the data protection act 1998, by breaching this law surely he himself should be punished and not just the newspaper business he was running (News Of The World). So I believe by allowing Rupert Murdock to own all of BSkyB is just a huge mistake and just asking for more controversial stories such as the Milley Dowler phone hacking to reoccur but the next time it could be worse. Thank for taking time out of your busy schedule to read my email regarding the recent Rupert Murdock case.

Your Sincerely

Daniel Eugene Vincenzo Casey
