Architecture shoot preview 2

Building: La Pedrera

Details- This picture shows detail because it shows the delicate sculpture and shaping of the wooden posts.  By having this detail, it creates a unique characteristic on what people see when coming to visit the building.

Light- The sunset and the artificial light correspond with each other making the building look like it has a glow to it. The light helps people see all the details and curves that go into the building's structure.

Pattern- The building's contours create a wave like fashion in rows to make the building more interesting. Most buildings don't take time to do details like this and have it be apparent to the public eye.

Shapes and angles-  Having a structure with a spiral detail allows it to have different angles and shapes to it. Adding this to the structure makes it look like a lot of time went into making it like that. 

Surroundings- The building was built in 1906, having an old architecture in an urbanized area, creates a feel  that it will make minor changes, but stay the same. While others will become more updated around it. 

Sensory overload

The statement posted is a point that not everyone remembers but is very valid. I agree with this statement. As an aspiring photographer, it makes me feel that we should capture the environment to show the regularities of people around the world.
2. When seeing the images, I thought it would be interesting to take my camera to show how people live in their own lives and what they are surrounded by.
3. I would find it to be interesting and fun to play around because me as a little kid wants to play with anything and everything. 4. My favorite photo is where the shop in covered in flowers, I think it is very pretty to look at.

I-Phone warm up

The picture that I chose is of a cabin in a snowy-rural area with mountains behind in the background.
Many, if all, seem like they were taken by a professional camera, not an iPhone.
The apps they used most likely enhanced the picture, but not very much, maybe a filter or two.
2 tips I would use to help my own photography would be to have different perspectives and different angles to get a more intriguing photo.

Built by Moshe Safdi.
Built in 1967.
Located in Montreal, Canada
No visitors because they are private complexes.
Took 140,000 dollars to build.
Built to integrate the benefits of suburban homes, mainly for the gardens, fresh air, privacy and multilevel living areas.
I chose this structure because I have never seen anything like it and I think it is a very different way of going about things. It is very creative and well thought out which is very cool to see.

Built by Sir Peter Cook and Colin Fournier.
Built in 2003
Located in Austria.
Public for visitors.
It was built for the European Capital of Culture.
I picked this structure because the shape of this building is  very interesting. It is very oddly placed, it seems to be in a suburban area which makes me wonder why it was placed there. The building is rather new next to older buildings surrounding.

Built by NBBJ
Built in 1997
Located in Dresden, Ohio
Public for everyone to see.
No information on the cost of the building.
It was built to represent a company.
I picked that structure because it is so obscure and original that I wanted to learn why it was built. It is a very unique and eye catching way to represent a company. It is very noticeable and that is why I picked this building.

La Pedrera, Spain
Antoni Gaudi Josep Maria Jujol were the architects of the building.
1906 is when it was built.
It was built in Casa Mila, Spain.
The building is public for people to come and visit.
No exact cost, but resources say it was expensive to build.
The reason for it being built was Pere Mila had seen another houses, and was intrigued by its beauty. So he asked the architects to construct a large building of rental flats on his new land.
I picked to do research on this building because I thought that the building was very interesting and beautiful. You don't really see this in America, so when I saw it, I wanted to learn more about it.

Piet Blom was the architect of this building.
Built in 1977.
Located in Rotterdam, Helmond, and the Netherlands.
Public building where people can visit.
No information on the cost of the building.
The architect wanted to design something unique and forest like.
I found it interesting how the houses were cubed, not something you see in everyday life. I really enjoyed the colors Piet Blom chose, very bright and out there.

Action Preview Assignment

1. This photo is apart of a winning sports photography portfolio because it is a significant moment after the game to pour the water on top of the coaches head. The water is frozen in time.
2. The shutter speed is high because the water was stopped and there is no blur.
3. Yes, it is a gratifying moment for the players to be able to do this to their coach.
4. Yes, because this usually only happens when the team won the game, so the photographer probably saw that to take the picture.
5. The aperture and the shutter speed balance in this photo which is sometimes hard to figure it out in such a short amount of time.
