Assigned: 21 February 2012

Points: 10 points

Chao Cac Ban!

I hope you had fun taking photos over the past week. You should have at least 7 photos to upload (one for each day). So let's get started.

1. Import the photos to your computer - Save them in your folder on the server
2. Pick one photo from each day in the past week 
3. Upload those photos to your blog
4. Put the photos in chronological order and date them
5. Add at least three sentences for each photo - try explaining why this photo was the one you chose for the day
6. Publish your post and email me the link to your blog

Throughout the rest of the term, your photography assignment will be as follows:

1. In class we will cover photography techniques and edit our photos
2. You will continue to take at least one photo every day for the rest of the term - Make it a habit!
3. You will update your blog with the photos, dates, and at least three sentences to go with each photo each week after we cover photography techniques and photo editing - If there isn't enough time to do this in class you will need to finish at home or at lunch/afternoon break
4. You need to email me the link to your blog post every time so I know you have completed the assignment - use sis.kristin.romberg@gmail.com

This week I want you to focus on two things when taking your photos:

• Rule of Thirds
• Depth of Field or even more if you want to get very technical

I want to see these both of these in each of your photos for this week - all 7 of them. Be sure at least 2 have a wide depth of field and at least 2 have a shallow depth of field.

Get out there and get creative!
