Mixed Lighting

Light Types: Sun, Studio
Shutter Speed: 1/500
Aperture: f/20
In this photo I tried to get some shine off the wheels and the quarter panels of the car. This shows studio light on the rims and sun on the body of the car.

Light Types: Sun, Flash
Shutter Speed: 1/1000
Aperture: f/16
I tried using a flash to get some shine on all the chrome, but use the sun to get the light in the rear tail lights. The exhaust tip and the rims shine nice with the flash, not to much but enough to make them stand out.

Light Types: Sun, Reflector
Shutter Speed: 1/250
Aperture: f/12
I used a reflector to get the whole of the car, it did make a bit if a shadow because the light was dulled, this shows the glare in the rims but not as much on the body from the light. the sun still hit the bumper of the car and made a bit of a shine there but that's just nature.

Different Light Portraits + 3 Fav Portraits

AMBIENT LIGHT PORTRAIT - FAV 1
I like this photo because it is very well shot and it makes ask questions, such as how can one look so beautiful and how can the light accent her so well. I would recreate this photo by finding a really hot girl and bringing her to a house and taking photos, with all the lights on.

NATURAL LIGHT PORTRAIT - FAV 2
I like this photo because it makes me question on how natural light can bring out such a bright blue in the females shirt and yet add such a nice shadow around her sides. I could recreate this photo by finding another beautiful girl and taking photos out side in a green park.

STUDIO LIGHT PORTRAIT - FAV 3
I like this photo because it really makes me wonder how you can really photograph someone as well as this photographer does, it makes me really want to take more photos like this. I could recreate this photo by finding another beautiful girl and taking her to a studio and have all the lights off, but 1 studio light still on.

Light Painting

In this I show the movement of a light to cover more that what one light would show.
5 Second Shutter Speed
In this photo we show the movement of a light source to show different lines in mid-air
10 Second Shutter Speed
In this photo I'm trying to show the same person in two different places with flashing a light and then letting a person move while the light is off, once they are ready you flash them again with the light to show the movement.
25 Second Shutter Speed

Studio Lighting

D700
shutter speed: 10/1250
f-stop: f/4.5
- In this photo I asked everybody to turn all the lights off and had a lower set defused light that allowed Kai's arm and chin to get highlighted. This created a creepy glow and really shows what cameras are capable of capturing.
D700
shutter speed: 10/250
f-stop: f/5
 - In this photo I tried to have a nice shadow on the wall and on Kai's face. The light was not defused, but set farther back. The light was a bit above the height of Kai's head. This create a chill sort of mellow mood that makes his hair look darker.
D700
Shutter speed: 10/500
f-stop: f/5.5
 - In this photo I have the same light setup as the one above, but I changed the angle of the camera, and defused the light. This made it so there was not as much of a shadow on Kai's face but still set a sort of creepy mood with the shadow on the wall.

The Mona Kalisa

The Mona Lisa was done by a very well known artist, Leanordo Divinci, this is probobly the most famous painting ever to be put up in a museum.

The photo that I took was of my buddy Kai. I asked him to make a funny face to add a bit of flare to the mix up.

The Mona Kalisa was from the face of my photo and the rest from thefamous Mona Lisa, It is in my personal view a great photo, I dont know if it is because my buddy madea a funny face or if since he is a guy, and he has long hair. Either way I like the photo a lot and it even shows.



The mona lisa is more so possibly the most well-known piece of painted artwork in the entire world. It was painted by the leonardo davinci, the famous Italian artist, around 1519, and is a half body commission for a woman named lisa gherardini. Her husband, francisco del giocondo requested the work by da vinci just after the turn of the century. It is perhaps the most studied piece of artwork ever known. The subjects facial expression has brought about a source of debate for centuries, as her face remains largely enigmatic in the portrait. Originally commissioned in Italy, it is now at home in the French Republic, and hangs on display in the Louvre in Paris.

M.Cruickshank Letters

This is my name in many different areas around my school.
I found all these letters and had to find a way to turn the camera to get the right angle and view.
This spells out my whole name.
