Schmidt's Photos

Panorama: 


I took this panoramic shot of Lincoln High School in the front patio. I put my camera on my tripod and then moved it while taking several photos and overlapping them. After I took the photos and edited them in Lightroom, I then used photoshop to merge all of them together and to create a panorama of the school. I really like how the picture turned out, with the school being bent, because it adds a certain spice to the boring building. 

HDR: 

















I took these three photos on my front porch of my neighbors house. It was a really sunny day and I loved the house hidden behind the trees in my yard. I think the three photos look a lot better overlapped rather than being by themselves.

Multiple Exposure: 




















These two photos were taken at Multnomah Falls. I took a close up shot of the water fall. I then took a zoomed out photo of the same waterfall and overlapped the two. It created a very foggy and misty looking photo.

Motion Photos




Slow Motion:

























I took this photo in a pitch black closet. I set my shutter speed to fifteen seconds and held a flashlight in my hand. I positioned myself, turned on the light for a second, turned it off and then moved. I repeated that four times so that over the course of fifteen seconds, I appeared in four different areas.

Freeze Action: 





















This is a photo of the bottom part of Multnomah Falls. It is an example of freeze action because everything is stopped, including the moving water. I like the color in this photos and the symmetry.

Total Motion:

















I took this photo on the vista bridge at night when only the city lights were lighting the sky. I set the shutter speed to about one third and then moved the camera while it was taking the photo. This created the lines of color which look really cool.

Panning:















This picture was taken on my front porch. The boy in the picture is my neighbor who loves to ride his bike at high speeds up and down our street. It's fun watching him ride every afternoon and so I decided he would be the perfect model for this motion assignment. I set my shutter speed to one fortieth of a second and moved my camera along with him. This created a blurry background but a still Adam.
