Assignment #14 (p2): Photography Research And Prectice
1. Reflector : my example - Before
Without Reflector
• As there was no
reflector used a
shadow was created
where the light from
above couldn’t reach.
2. Reflector : my example - After
With Reflector
• In order to reduce the
shadow on the side of
the object I used a
reflector to reflect the
light on the side that
was not hit directly by
the light.
3. Shutter speed- motion blur definition
The artefact by which fast-moving objects appear blurred. Each frame
in a conventional film is an average sample taken over about half the
time it takes to record the frame. In consequence, fast-moving images
appear blurred.
• Type 1: • Type 2:
If the subject of your photo is not When the subject in the photo is
moving it then becomes blurred

or waterfall), then you can use a
slower shutter speed.
4. A found example
• When the shutter
speed increases you
can almost see the pear
in motion.
• The movement is made
visible within a a still
photograph.
• This is done through
the blurring of the
image.
5. A found example
Fast Shutter Speed:
• Each water
droplet is made
visible to the
human eye.
6. Motion Blur - my example
Type 1:
• Because the person is
in motion they have
become so blurred • The background is
out that they are not as blurred
hardly visible. because the camera
is not moving along
with the person.
7. Motion Blur - my example
Type 2:
When the camera follows the moving
person the background becomes blurred
and they are much more visible.
8. Motion Blur - my example
Slow Shutter Speed:
• With a slow shutter speed
the camera is only able to
capture a limited amount of
movement thus reducing a
blur in the image.
9. Motion Blur - my example
Fast Shutter Speed:
• When the shutter speed
time is decreased to 0.5
seconds the image
becomes blurry as the
camera is picking up every
movement.

images to the device.
Connecting a cable with your
camera or device and your
computer.
11. Composition – Framing definition
• Framing is using objects in the picture to create a frame around the
subject.
• Good framing can also be controlled by how the camera captures the
subject. E.g. zooming out too much creates awkward spacing and
therefore poor framing.
• This is a good way to make a photograph look interesting and draw
attention to the subject.
12. A found example
Bad Framing
• Far too much empty space makes the
picture appear awkward an not
appealing to the eye.
• The head of this person
has been cut off due to
poor framing.
13. A found example
Good Framing
• The people are in the centre of
the frame which stops anything
being cut off e.g. their heads or
arms.
14. my example
Bad Framing
• Empty and
awkward
• Because the framing is so spacing.
poor, the eye is unable to
focus on anything in the
scenery.
• This makes the photo
unappealing to look at
despite the setting.
15. my example
Good Framing
• The flowers are placed
exactly in the centre of • Because they are in
the frame. the centre the photo
is more attractive
and appealing as this
makes it easier for
the eye to focus on
the object.
16. my example - Before
• Empty and
awkward • The edge of
spacing. the picture is
cut off.
• The poor framing doesn’t allow the eye to
comfortably focus on the object.
17. my example - After
• The picture is now in the
centre of the frame
allowing you to focus on it.
• There is no awkward
space to take away focus.
