Weekly Dose #2

This week I felt kind of rushed with everything. I had passed assignments that I needed catching up on plus researching a new photographer. But I believe I put the work in for this weeks researching and practice. I found a photographer who specializes in close up photography and how won awards plus works for two companies, his name is Mark James Ford. I took notes about him as much as possible and found to really enjoy his work. I as well took notes on some tips on taking close ups and applied that when I was practicing this style. (L.G#1) During this process when I went home I took some close ups during evening time and compared those to the ones I took at school during broad daylight. (L.G#2) I have used the close up setting before but I have learned a couple tips using the settings when taking close-ups. (L.G#3) Down below I have attached Mark James website of his work and a brief description of who he is. I as well attached the notes I took of him and tips for close-ups.
