Simplicity   This photo shows simplicity because it focuses on the man while everything else is blurred out making you focus on the man. Framing This a great example of framing because it shows the subject doing an action while framed naturally by the glass allowing the focus to be on the firefighter.

Balance This photo is a good example of balance because all of the firefighters bodies form triangles, the geometric shapes compliment the picture. Avoiding Merger

The picture is very clear and seems almost sarcastic as Hannah is throwing thumbs up but seems almost wierded out.

The effect was achieved by cutting a hole in a wall then focusing and projecting light onto the wall in the chamber. 2) The modern camera came one step closer to being innovated when Isaac Newton and Christian Hguyens perfected the understanding of optics and process of making high quality lenses. 3) Niepce finally added film to the small portable cameras of that time. A glass lens, wood box and film. 4) Still works the same way: Light passes through the lens, into the camera and exposes the film. 5) Digital cameras use a sensor called a CCD instead of film. The images are captured on computer memory devices. Camera Modes 6) Auto mode, the camera sets everything up for you while in program mode you have to do the work. 7) Portrait mode is used to take pictures of someone and blur out the background. It works by choosing the fastest available aperture. 8) It's used to freeze motion. It uses the highest shutter speed pos...
