Types Of Photography
Landscape
Landscape photography can focus on vast or minimal parts of the landscape and generally focus on nature but they also sometimes focus on man made objects throughout the world. Most landscape photography show little or no human activity and are created in the pursuit to capture a description of nature.
William Neill
I like this photo as it focuses on very minimal aspects of
the landscape in the fog and yet it manages to look peaceful and beautiful at
the same time. The image also has a shadow reflection as the fog is so thick
making it look like cloudy water.
Portrait
Portrait photography is the photography of people demonstrating personality, expression and mood of the subject matter. The main focus point in portrait photography is the persons face although the background and body may also hold an important role.
Philippe Halsman
I like this picture as it shows how technology and placement
of objects can be used to alter a photo and make it more exciting. The expression
shown really demonstrates the nature of this picture as if what he paints has
come to life. The photo also uses the
contrast of light and dark to show what is occurring within the photo, it is
not an ordinary portrait.
Documentary
Felix Lupa
I like this image as it conveys the dire situation that is
occurring throughout our world, using dark colours to emphasise the way in
which people all over the world live today. The contrast in light is also very
well done to create the feeling of emptiness and sorrow.
Band
Band photography are photographs that focuses on the art and
skill of capturing photographic images of musical acts at live performances or
in staged posed photo shoots.
Ross Halfin
I
like this photo as the lighting within it is focused on the subject and the
subject is also slightly off centre to draw more attention to him. This photo
also demonstrates the way the musician feals about the way he plays, full of
raw emotion and feeling.
This was our first attempt at taking a portrait photo (hero shot). The things that worked well was that our group managed to work somewhat well with minor distractions. The things that didn't work well is that a lot of our photographs are out of focus and also they never look that good even when we tried to use the photographic composition to suit these photos. We also tended to delete a lot of photos that we perhaps should have kept so that we could see what had gone wrong and see how we could correct them for the future.
Photoshop helped us remove unwanted blemishes and make us look slightly more presentable (although it didn't help much) it also allowed us to make some rather frightening photographs.

As you can see from the photos above, maybe not the the first enhancement, you can see that I was able to reduce the amount of blemishes and make the photo brighter/look overall better. Although these are very simple techniques they do help a lot with the presentability of them.
