Stoneybridge City Farm

The animals are Iris, the Anglo-Nubian Goat, Luna and Buttercup, the Dexter Cows, Billy the Shetland Pony and Tilly and Fairy, Section A Ponies. They also have Timmy and Barry, the Angora Goats, Sally the Golden Guernsey Goat, Dolly and Daisy the Jacobs Sheep and their offspring, Rosie, Venus, Treacle, Cupcake and Teddy .Kev the tortoise lives with them in the warm summer months and the Henry the turtle swims in his indoor pond. In addition to these they have a variety of rabbits, guinea-pigs, chickens, geese, ducks and turkeys. Outside, in there aviary, we have cockatriels, a Rosella parrot, quails, finches, and budgerigars. Ill most likely be taking picture of the goats and rabbits and any other ugly animal that i can use in my project. Blasting full of flash might not work so well when trying to take pictures of animals. Making too many noises could scare animals too. Ill be considering low ISO on a fast shutter speed to capture the detail and grossness of the animal and have an auto white balance. To edit these photos ill be morphing things together.

Research task

This is a portrait of Rebeus Hagrid a 7ft Giant. The lighting in this picture is rather bright probably caused by stage lights. The mood of the character seems to be a very proud and loyal but seems impatient at the moment. Key points are Hagrids stature and sheer size.  Hes capture standing still.

This is the Hungarian Horntail dragon that Harry Potter had to battle in the movies. Its a wide shot of the dragon to capture its wings and tail in. The light is rather bright which is coming from the out doors im guessing is natural light. The mood is rather tense as a massive dragon is looking rather hungry and hunting you. A main key point is the huge spike along the dragons back and the chain around its neck. The action captured is the dragon getting ready to attack.

This is a widelens potrait of Lupin Remus in his warewolf form. The lighting is coming from the moonlight probably caused by a singular dimlight of too the side that replicates moonlight. The warewolf seems calm at the moment but there seems to be a harsh tension coming from the scenery. He is currently standing at the moment.

This is a cropped photo of the basilisk in Harry Potter. The lighting is rather dim as its in and underground sewer type labyrinth and the only light is coming from the artificial fire. The mood is scary and this creatures sharp fangs look like they are ready to kill. The keypoints are the bright eyes and sharp fangs that the basilisk has and it is captured in it mid assault against harry.

This is a dementor in mid flight, the only lighting in the picture is coming from street lights. The mood is axious because of the dementors black cloak like body. The key points in this photo is the street light and snow to capture the cold essence of the dementor.

Memory check

1. The Rule of Thirds refers to:

    A compositional rule that divides a shot into vertical and horizontal thirds.

2. In order to maintain consistent exposure, (while all else remains the same), what happens between shutter speed and aperture?

     As the aperture widens, a faster shutter speed is required.

3. The best way to reduce camera shake is to:

 Increase your ISO

4. What color space should images be saved in if their intended output is a web gallery?

sRGB

5. What are the "Golden Hours"?

the hour before and after sunset and sunrise

6. When shooting landscapes, the best type of lens to use would be:

  wide angle lens

7. Depth of field refers to.

the range of sharpness from near to far
