Panoramic
In this picture, we were practicing panoramic pictures. We took 3 pictures with a 10-20% overlap between them. We then used the online editor called Gimp to put them together seamlessly. When I first aligned them together, there was a distinct line between the pictures. So to eliminate this, I used the eraser tool in Gimp to make it blend together better. This was a good experience because it taught us more about GImp and how it works.

Retouch Assignment
In this assignment, we were given a picture of a car that needed retouching. The picture was taken by a student two years ago, and Mr. Bush let us use it to practice retouching. We changed the background to black, so it was less distracting. We also got rid of the glare on the car so it looked nicer. I learned a lot from this assignment, and it was very helpful.

Nature
In this photo assignment, I chose to do Nature. This picture best displayed Nature out of all the ones I took. This time of year I thought would be best to shoot a Nature picture because the trees are changing color and it is pretty outside.
ISO: 80
Aperture: f/4
Shutter Speed: 1/400

Motion Demo
In this assignment, we experienced panning. This is when you have an object that is moving, and you follow the motion with your camera. The object is supposed to be clear, and the background should be a bit blurry. After taking the pictures, we edited them in an editor called Gimp. There we changed the brightness of the picture.

Macro
In this photo assignment, I chose to do Macro. Macro is used to take a close up picture, and this specific picture was taken of a flower in my backyard. I learned that you can't get too close to the object, or it will get blurry. Instead, you should use the zoom setting to get close. I had a lot of fun with this assignment, and this picture best displays Macro.
Technical information:
ISO: 160
Shutter Speed: 1/60
Aperture: f/2.6
