Assignment No. 4 - Getting Up Close

Your next assignment is "Getting Up Close". Basically I want to you photograph your subjects as close as you can. So if you were photographing a flower, you'd zoom in on it and move as close to it as you can while still being able to focus on it.

Close up photography is called "Macro" photography. Special lenses and filters are made to enable you to get even closer to your subject. You are not required to use these for this assignment.

The closer you are to your subject the more shallow your depth of field will become. Also the longer the focal length of your lens, the more shallow your depth of field will be.

Pick any subject matter to photograph. You should make at least 50 exposures. During the lab day, you will edit your collection to your 10 best, export them from Lightroom and post them on your blog.

All images should be color corrected, white balanced, cropped (if desired), and adjusted correctly in Adobe Lightroom.

You will be graded on:

  • Turned in on time
  • Resized correctly
  • Color Corrected
  • My Subjective assessment

Lab Day: Thurs Sept 20

Due Date: Tues Sept 25
