Photography

 To me, photography is an art of observation. It's about finding something interesting in an ordinary place. I've found it has little to do with the things you se and everything to do with the way you see them
-Elliot Erwitt
 
Why do I love photography?
I love it because it allows me to express my creative side that I don't normally get to use. Being able to see lines, curves, and angles in something ordinary and taking a photo that makes the ordinary look extraordinary is rewarding.

What got me started?
I got into photography as it has always been an interest to me. Love the impact a good photo has on an individual. What really inspired me was some photography accounts on Instagram. I started looking up videos and information about photography. I taught myself how it works and also how to Photoshop pictures.

These are some of my pictures :


To the Left was the before picture. To the Right is the after. I added light  edited her skin, and blurred the background.















 
To the left is the original. To the right I changed the color of her dress, added light, edited skin, and cropped the picture.


On this picture I made the person levitate.
 
 
This is why I love photography because you can so many things with it. I normally love taking portraits of people, but I also like taking pictures of landscapes, plants, and many different things. I hope my  photography improves and hope it will take somewhere in life with it. It's a great hobby and I think everybody should try it.

Assignment 8

1. Go to http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/new-fantasyland/ and look around it a little bit. Now go to http://www.byteland.org/angeloflife. Now why do you think the .com website is more exciting than the .org website? 
I think the .com is more exciting because the .org is more for organizations. .com is used more for kids. it includes more fun things than what .org pages do. I think the .org is made to inform you and not to entertain its very basic compared to the Disney website.
 
2. Why do you think the Disney website has more hyperlinks, advertisements, and other distracting options to click on?
I think it has a lot of , advertisements, and other distracting options to click on because a lot of people know that the website is visited by many people. Since it's very popular, people want to be advertised. Companies are willing to pay a lot of money to be advertised with  popular websites.



3. If you had to construct/create your own webpage from the beginning, what would you want it to be about and why?
I would want it to be about music. I really love music and it means a lot to me. I think there are many musicians out there surfing the web and would be interested at looking at a webpage about music.




4. How many programmers do you think would have to work with you to make your website possible? Would it seem impossible to construct/create a webpage by yourself? Why? 
If I wanted a really cool and attractive webpage I would need a lot of programmers. Each would do a different job and make the webpage successful. I think if I wanted to do a cheap webpage I could do it by myself. However it would not be successful.



5. What would you want to name your website? Type that name into the web-address bar, is it taken already?
www.musicisme.com


yes

6. Explain why webpages with flash videos, images, and color take longer to load than pages with only text?
They take longer to load because all the features need more time to load. Videos need a lot of internet connection to play properly.
