For my fourth photo assignment I chose to do Black & White. For B&W I had to edit the photo and make it black and white. When I sat down to import and edit my photos I realized that I forgot to format my camera's memory when i left to take photos. As a result I thought I had taken 75 photos for this subject, when in reality i had taken 20 photos. Luckily I was doing B&W, so I could use some of my old, unused photos and use them for black and white. Best Photo:Editing: I used Camera raw filter to make it B&W, to darken the shadows, and Bump up the highlights. 9 Other Good Photos:

For my third photo assignment I chose to do light painting. Light painting is when you go into a dark area, set the camera to a high shutter speed and to a low ISO. During the photo you move around lights to "paint" in the darkness. When I took my best photo, the flashlight that I was using as a makeshift lightbulb fell off of the Rainbow Disco Ball as I moved the ball, this combined with me quickly taping the flashlight back on created the photo you see below.

For the second subject I chose to do nature/landscape. In order to comply to the criteria I had to take photos that "says something about nature and the landscapes we live in." I found my photo subjects by walking around saline. When I initially left my house, on foot, to go shooting it was 9:00am I returned home at 4:00pm. I took no breaks, I walked continuously for 7 hours. The next day I could barely stand.
