Reaction Paper 8

I looked back at my first photos for this class and couldn’t believe how my pictures have changed. I look at the picture of the flowers that I took although it was ok it could be better with some of the effects that we learned in our class since that first project. Then I look at the last project that we did and I look at the picture I took of our dog Zip going after the pheasant. Using the warm filter that I put on this picture really made a change in it. I would never have done this without learning it in this class. I am not sure if any one influence made this picture possible for me except that of our instructor and his ability to make us find that inner photographer and his ability to teach us all the techniques that we can use to change a photo. I really like the landscape and nature photographers as I love the outdoors and this is what interests me the most. I would say that the last photographer I wrote about Kevin Snyder was one of my favorite he is able to make his pictures dreamy or mystical. John Corney gave me a different prospective on landscape photography seeing things I would not have considered landscape before. I think that the most I will use this new ability for is to capture memories for my family. I am a big scrap booker along with my little sister so using this will make our pictures even more interesting. I also hope to use my photographer for my career in Criminal Justice, Corrections & Law Enforcement. There are many uses for this in these fields and I hope to become an investigator so this should come in handy.
