For this blog, I thought I would just share some tutorial videos on Time Lapses. I just stumbled on these like I do with all of my blog topics. But, these are some pretty basic tutorials that are short and don't go to into depth but show you some basics that can help you to get started on your own time lapses. There things to take into consideration to make sure that when you are doing your time lapse, that it runs smoothly without things such as little flickers from white balance settings changing and things with the lens changing.

Since the glass has been doing a lot of stuff about possible lighting scenarios, I thought I would share this link. I came across this link while I was stumbling and thought that it was perfect. It shows some different kinds of lighting situations and also shows lighting set ups that are made with ordinary boxes and cans. Just people using their resources around them and what they've got. There are actually some pretty cool shots of some still life photography where used very little light and another one using lights and slow shutter speeds. They're just painting with light and it makes for a really cool final photo.

Jan. 12th Blog

Since we were on the topic of portrait photography, I thought that I would just go and find some portrait pictures that I liked. I went and found 3, but the one that I particularly like the most is of the man in the construction hat. It have in interest in portraits that have very little color or are completely black and white. It just seems that the tone is set by having those settings and it adds to the seriousness of the picture and the overall quality of the photo itself.
Then, there are some portraits that are specialized for certain people. An example being the picture of the man with the trumpet. I see photos like that has a part of photojournalism because you're trying to capture someone important but have to somehow incorporate and show what they do for a living. It could be a background or even an object that is shown with the person.
