Ethics in fashion photography

1. Her neck was raised, her eyes were moved up and down, lips were plumped, hair was made fuller, and her cheeks were sunk in.

2. i dont think its right because it changes who they are.

3. No, it’s wrong no matter what the circumstances are.

4.i think the make-up is okay but other than that its not necessary. 

5. There are some differences , because both focus on getting a good photos , . The main difference is fashion photography is selling something for advertisement.

6.  It's a capture of REAL time or of something real, and i affective because it either appeals or relates to you or it doesn't.

Negatives Evaluation

1. I think all the photos i took turned out well, i can see all of them and the objects in the photo.

2. I think all of my photos are going to come out like they appear on the negatives.

3. I think photo number 20, came out well because i think i used rule of thirds in the photo.

4.  Photo number 20 was in focus, and the exposure was pretty good i think.


5.  As i said in question 4 i think i used rule of thirds in the photo.

Photo Manipulation and ethics

The main points of the story is about how digital manipulation, or cloning. It tells how people use it to create another picture making others believe or think a different story to the real one. Digital manipulation can get you in to trouble believe it or not. Digital manipulation isn't limited to the Middle East.  

This type of editing is unethical because you are taking credit for someones work. He's making the audience or reader think it  is his work but he just took it from someone else's. 
 











 
  This is unethical because they tried to crop a black guy in to the photo, when he really isnt in the photo to begin with.

Drug Cartels in Mexico

The Pictures of drug wars in Mexico, I think He is trying to tell people that drugs are not something to mess or play around with because you can end up dead like those people who died from it. Gunshots,  being stabbed, and getting beaten up. He is trying to tell people its a very dangerous thing to do because u dealing with gang members and drug dealers that could kill u for there money.

Making a Black and White print

 The Process 

In total darkness, remove the film from the cassette. Pull the flat end off the 35mm canister with a can opener. Unwind the film and remove the end of the film from the spool by peeling off the tape that connects it.
Load the film onto the film reel,practice loading a few times in daylight so you can see and get the feel for it. Place the loaded reel in the film tank ad cover it as directed. The film is now in a light tight container. You can turn on the light.  Lay out the chemicals in front of you- a film developer , a stop bath, and a fixer with hardener, and a hypo eliminator bath.  Pour developer into the open part of the sealed film tank,When done, take the lid off the tank's pour spout and pour it out (either back into a container for re-use or into the sink if only one use is recommended).  Pour running water into the pour spout for one minute to stop development. Pour fixer,remove the tank cover completely and let the film sit in cold running water for five minutes.
Carefully pull the film out of the tank, Don't touch the surface of the negatives

Post Shoot Reflection

1. It was kind of hard because we had to get pictures of students actually doing there work, and most of the kids were not even working.

2. On some of the pictures i was taking it was not in focus i had to adjust the lens to get it back in focus to take the photo.


3. I don't think i used any rules besides rule of thirds.


4. I would try to get better pictures and not rush, and use more of the rules we learned in class.
