Assignment 2

New photographs must be taken - all photos must be taken with a digital camera. Students will upload the project photos to Picasa, create a Vehicles page on their Digital Portfolio sites, and embed the project photos on the Vehicles page. Excellent quality work is expected.

Vehicles: Pick a vehicle and show us your best series of five images. Do a study of all of the vehicle. Do remember to pay attention to your depth of field and focus when composing your images. As people are likely to be involved with vehicles do not have any people recognizable in the image.

Be creative and have fun. Students will have until the end of class on April 5, 2011 to complete this assignment – No Lates!!!
