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.

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

Point Lobos, CA



This photo was taken near point Lobos. In this particular photograph I was battling the harsh summer sun. This photograph has beautiful following lines. I love The fact I can see the seafloor. This photograph was taken with a shutter speed of 1/320 sec and at stop of f/7.1

My front yard



This is one of my latest photographs. This is of a flower bud I caught just a few days before it became its vivid beautiful flower. I was using when my old Nikon film lens that gives me with the most ridiculous depth the field I can get super macro images with it like this one is has a very very shallow depth of field a very emotional photograph if I do say so. With the vivid color from the flower bud the dark background gives you a sense of natural beauty and of life.

Fun in a car



Another photograph done by myself. The idea of this photograph was initially to be a blurry photograph throughout. But as soon as I took my first shot I saw that the foreground was blurry and the background was sharp and not blurry. If you would like to pull off a shot like this hop in the car grab the camera either rolled down the window or keep it up and just make sure it's clean so you don't get Spots from it being dirty. Get your exposure set and then this is the trial and error part. You have to play with your shutter speed see you have it slow enough to get the blur but fast enough to the background stays sharp my photograph was taken with a shutter speed of 1/6 sec and a aperture of f/22 so I get a nice in focused shot. This photograph was done on the car ride to Monterey. I think this is an interesting photograph primarily because the foreground's blurry in the backgrounds is in focus.

Montray CA



Here's another photograph by myself. This was taken on the coast of Monterey California. The sun was setting and was throwing off the most beautiful color enhancing light. I love the plant life in the frontal section of the photo combined with the lighting there quite beautiful and  yet you have the waves coming in from the coast and the beautiful sky with a very vivid and blue color. Emotionally I don't feel the photo contains much because this was not supposed to be an emotional photograph. This photograph was supposed to be beautiful landscape shot of the Monterey coast I think it completes that beautifully. This photograph was taken with a shutter speed of 1/22 sec and f-stop of f/11.
