MMS 173 Assignment 1: Knowing where I'm at (Part 1)

MMS 173 Assignment 1: Knowing where I'm at (Part 1) (01/15)

For some years, I've been taking quite a lot of photos whenever I have a chance. I can't say I'm good enough nor say I'm too bad photography but all I can say is I enjoy taking pictures. In my collections of photos here are my top 5 photos (in different categories) and the reasons why:

Light the Sky

The first one on the list is this picture of light bulb. What I really love about this picture is the simplicity of it and its background. It's actually the sky at somewhere in the afternoon. The small dirt-like thing near the bulb is actually a bird. As much as I want to put the details of the picture, I can't.

Cheers!

Putting aside that this picture reminds me a start of new friendship, what I love about this picture is the wide aperture effect. I captured it using my mobile phone while everyone else is holding their cups high and looking at the other side in which another camera awaits.

I also love how centered the cup is. I actually tried capturing photo like this again, but unlike this one, that was "scripted" and we're only three.

Starlake, San Pablo City

Country Road

Just like my the second one, what I love about this photo is it's wide aperture effect. Taken at a resort here at our place, I took a stolen shot of my friend singing and playing guitar. I think it could have been a lot better in monochrome but even though, I still love this photo among all my stolen shot. The background and the hat, for me, makes it better. I also asked for his permission to post it here.

The Opposite

Here's my fourth favorite photo, the most recent one in my top 5, a picture table in a small field in Baguio city. I liked it because of its color (it looks different on my phone, more lively) I took this in an open field in a sunny day, so I tried playing with the manual setting to make it darker. This one is actually cropped by me due to excess line created by the end of table and the field in the background, which is thicker, breaking its pattern.

Marigold, Bay, Laguna

Gold

This one is old but gold. I actually got this sold. Don't worry, I can still use it because it wasn't bought full rights. I took this photo at Bay, Laguna. This was the time where my camera was newly bought and I was practicing some of its settings and tried the Macro Setting. I love this because it reminds me of those free wallpaper in cellphones or computers, I actually felt good in this.
