Camera Spot 2
Taking Macro Shots:
Using different Angles:
The subject stays the same but your camera angle changes how it looks. Remember that the GIANT angle makes things look small, the eye-level angle makes things look normal and the snail angle makes things look huge - just like they would to a snail. The possum view is pretty cool - it is snuggled up very close as if you are hanging onto the subject.
Camera Shot Challenge:
This week you need to take three photos.
1. A macro shot (try the fossils or flowers)
2. A portrait from an unusual angle (giant view, snail view...)
3. A photo with guiding lines (guide you to the subject)
When taking a macro shot, walk closer to the subject rather than use the zoom. There is no macro on the iPad so only walk close if it is still in focus. This shot is good for things like fossils, flowers and insects.

Taking a photo - basic rules & head shot
We are looking at how to take a good photo this term.
This is so we can use the iPads and camers to support our learning and to enter the photography competition for the end of the month.
Lesson number 1 - basic rules with a camera...
Challenge:
Take two photographs of people - one or more together, in the classroom during learning times. Make the subject (the people) the biggest in the picture but think about the story you are trying to tell.
On the iPad, e-mail your image to Room 6 then save it as Jeremyheadshot1 - name type of photo then number. Go to our e-mail then save your image in the Photography Term 2 folder.

iPad notes: There is no lanyard for an iPad so you must always hold it with two hands. Steady it against a table or yourself so the shot is not blurry. Check which camera you are using - the front or the back one and make sure the cover or your fingers don't get in the way.
