Second Term

The first term has just finished, and we have done a lot of different projects during this time. I think that we have taken advantage of the time, and we have been very productive. Before we started this term, I thought that we would do less things than we have done, and I liked that. For the next term, I propose to do some trips around Donosti.

Cartier Bresson

This is the information about one of the pictures I took:

Seville, children on crutches

This photography was taken in 1933 in France

Here we can see a street which is in ruins, there are many debris on the ground, and in this street there are some children playing with their friends and they look like poor people, without many things, but they still seem to be very happy and having fun. So, on the foreground there is a wall with a gap in the middle, which Cartier used like a frame. Using this frame, we can focus the attention to the childrens. I think that with this photo Cartier wanted to show us that the childhood is always a happy time of our lives, even being poor.

It was imposible to recreate this scene, but we try it and we take these photos, and we use the tunnel like a frame.

Basic photography

In the last classes we have been talking and watching videos about photography. We have learned different tips to get better photos: using the rule og thirds, filling the frame, different backgrounds....
I have chosen this two pictures. So we had to choose one picture with a small depth of field and another with slow shutter speed. Here are the photos, respectively:
