Week 3- Digital Photo Basics

This week we spent some time going over the 9 "Lessons" of Digital Photography:
  1. Experiment
  2. Check your backgrounds
  3. Hold your camera steady and straight
  4. Get in close
  5. Take lots of photos
  6. Get the balance right between people, places, and things
  7. Find a point of interest
  8. Use your focal lock
  9. Use different modes for different situations
After this we used those "Lessons" and did a photo scavenger hunt around the school. Once those pictures were put on the computer, we took our 3-4 favorites and used an online program called Picnik to make collages. As you can see, we also took advantage of the program's editing and effects options! Here are a few of the collages.
