Pic of the day
The pic of the day is available at nationalgeographic.com or earthshots.com
Follow this link: Nat Geo and look on the right hand side to see the pic of the day. Mrs. Haller will sometimes refer to these photos in her lectures.
The Earthshots.com link is a little more nebulous but there are lots of fabulous shots there too.

We connected with the other schools today and covered off the mechanics of composition for photography. Check out the information on building a collection of stock photos. Don't forget that you must create a photo file on Dropbox to make your files easily accessible. Also, get that shared file called SD74 Digital Media (name) going and add Mrs. Haller (bhallerbc@gmail.com) and Ms.Jones (caraleej71@gmail.com) as subscribers to your folder. That way we can check your work.
Friday Mrs. Haller will be doing an in-depth lesson on aperture (f-stop) and depth of field. It's tricky, so don't miss that day.
Ciao!

Remember the rules of photo composition that you are focusing on. They are: (leading)lines; the rule of thirds; filling the frame; framing the subject; using unusual angles/viewpoints; depth of field (aperture); and symmetry/texture. If you are struggling with these terms, then let Ms. Jones know so she can review them with you.
