24. Up Close and Detail Landscape Photos – Due Thursday before class is over

Watch the video about up close and details of landscapes. Photograph a small detail of the landscape, a tree, a waterfall, or even a leaf. Or, try a close-up view of a bigger subject like a hillside. Your photographs should have a large depth of field with most of the scene in focus. You will edit (crop out unwanted backgrounds, change colors, etc) and upload your best 6 photos to your blog, title the post “Up Close and Detail Landscape Photos.” 3×3 gallery

25. Landscape Details and Close-ups Writing Due Thursday before class is over

After looking at the photographs from Eliot Porter write about the role of value in his color landscape detail photos (you can also look up more of his work online). What do the different values do for the photos? Explain what you think and why you think this. Also, write about the use of viewpoint/vantage point for each photo. What was the viewpoint (far away, up close, getting down to the level, etc)? Does it work for each photo? This should be at least a paragraph using complete sentences. You will be graded on conventions and ideas and content. Upload to your blog, title it “Eliot Porter.”
