The art of the selfie

As we all know for the most part that people take photos of them selfs and post them on to places like Facebook and Instagram and many more places. Now this is pretty much a new form of photography just like macro photographers some are bad some are good and few are great and that applies with the selfie some people are really stinking good at taking selfies look around on tumblr and you will find all sorts of selfies some good some bad some amazing. So that's why I titled this "The art of the selfie" because there's a art behind a truly amazing selfie. This is a selfie I took of my self over the summer and decided that there is a art form behind it.

This weird ball

This is a buca all and it is used for the game tarkra and it's played like tennis but it's like hacky sack 

So you hit the the ball with your feet and the ball does have quite a bit of bounce to it. This photograph was taken with my iPad mini and then a filter was place on to the photo this was taken at my school the time was around 1:15. Some may be looking at the table and being like damn he must go to a ghetto school but actly it's not the tables just get painted quite a bit by the students you would see the walls in side the buildings 

Just a bike.

This photo is of a bike chain. As playing with depth of field this day. Originally this photo was for a photography class but I decided to post it up on here extremely shallow depth of field this is for sure a macro shot I really love the depth of field on this photo so shallow you see the front of the bike chain and then it was seemingly blurs to nothing. Nothing out of the ordinary here is a nice depth of field.

Point Lobos, CA part 4

here is another photograph from my trip point Lobos. This of some plant life that was on the ledge I was on. I like the shimmer that was on the sea. The point focus was the plants more specifically it was the flowers I think that's a nice perspective the plants weren't just squared to photo they were set at an angle pretty elementary but not all does it correctly

My friend

This is my favorite portrait photo I've ever taken. The emotion that is in this photo is ridiculous the feeling in other words I see curiosity I see fear I get the feeling of the unknowing. I feel the lighting and framing this photo is perfect. I wish that all my photograph came out this well. The young lady in this photo is my friend Serina. This photo was taken on top of the Golden gate Bridge I saw the opportunity as my friend was peering down the side of the bridge. This photograph was taken with the shutter speed of 1/200sec and aperture of f/5.6

Point Lobos, CA part 3

this is one of my more favorite photos I've taken. I'll love the angle that this shot is taken at. It's not usual gives a great and feel to it. The colors are a little dry those due to the harsh summer sun. This shot was taken on the same ledge in my two other previous photographs were taken on. The young lady in this photo is my friend Serina. With the angle that this photo was taken with it gives you quite the odd feeling. The photographs taken with a shutter speed of 1/400 sec and f-stop of f/7.1.

Point Lobos, CA part 2

this shot is from the other side of the ledge I was on in point Lobos. This one has much stronger following lines due to the fact that they are straighter. I was able to battle the harsh summer sun more effectively in this photograph I always enjoy taking photos of the California coast because they're so much more to look at. So much more interesting in the shot you're able to see some of the seafloor and you have a nice beautiful blue sky this photograph was taken with a shutter speed of 1/400 sec and f-stop of f/7.1
