The subject of this assignment was Compositions & Techniques. I had a few settings for my pictures, at school, at home, New Hampshire mountains and York, Maine. They were all natural light and I used my digital camera to capture them. I chose to capture pictures of my chickens for multiple techniques because they have personality and color. All of the compositions and techniques are showcased in this collection of images. I edited almost all of my pictures using google photos and Photos. I brightened colors, made the images darker to show details and I made a few black and white. The story behind some of the pictures is I was taking pictures quickly during class, the pictures of my chickens weren't going to be for this project at first I just went outside with my camera and they all came running at me and then for a few of them I couldn't find examples wit recent pictures I took so I went back to a few I took this past summer. I don't love the pictures I took at school and would take different pictures at home.
