Unit 8: Photography

 The metadata is a set of data which describes and gives information about other data. In photography for example, the metadata gives information about the rights and administration of an image. It allows information to be transported with an image file in a way that can be understood by other software and human users. For example, the metadata can include attributes about an image such as its; height, width or the type of compression used to store it. The metadata can also be used to describe the content of an image, the name of the photographer and the date and time which the image was taken.  EXIF data means exchangeable image file format. This is basic metadata that is generated and stored by the camera whenever you take a photo. IPTC is the most used metadata and refers to information that describes something about an image. IPTC defines metadata structure, properties and fields so that images are optimally accessed. The metadata is on the right of the image. I had to fil...

  In this image you can see how I rated my photos from 1-5 star on Adobe Lightroom. This is rated from either how good the image is or weather it matches the brief of beautiful Doncaster. The images that I rate highly will be edited on Adobe Lightroom to make the image even better. In Adobe Lightroom I will change the exposure, saturation, contrast and delete unwanted things from images by using the healing brush. I rejected the images that were 2 stars or below because I didn't believe that they were good enough to edit or didn't match the beautiful Doncaster brief that we have been set. they selected the images that were 3 stars or above because I thought that they matched the brief and they would be easily editable.  I have rated the images 5 star that I will use for my final product. this means I would off enjoyed the shot composition and the images will match the brief to show how beautiful Doncaster is.  I will definitely edit this image to make it match the brief e...

  This image is an image of the train station in Kirk Sandall. I took the images because I thought the image had shown symmetry and went against the golden ratio. This still needed to be edited to reach its full potential. I will need to add brightness to the image and will need to get rid of the things in the image that are needed. This image has been edited to make the shot look brighter. This has been done by increasing the exposure and contrast. I also got rid of the fences on the right which were unneeded in the photo. I did this by using the healing brush to get rid of the fences on the right. I also increased the highlights slightly which made contrast. This shot is an image of the bridge located in Kirk Sandall. I wanted to make the shot brighter to show the depth and scale of the bridge and to also make the image look brighter to give Doncaster a better name. The photo also shows the rule of thirds and the golden ratio. The image has been edited to make the shot look brigh...

 This image shows that I know how to control the aperture when taking images. The main source in the image is the bridge with the canal below the bridge. I changed the aperture so the sky was blurry when I took the shot. This allowed me to capture the bridge and the water in the canal which is the main part of the image without it looking overexposed. 

To much the brief of beautiful Doncaster in my images that I will take. I will need to change the camera settings to make sure the images are taken to a professional standard. The settings that I will need to adjust will be; aperture, shutter speed and settings to make my image black and white.  In this photo of me with the camera, I was decreasing the aperture settings so I could get a blurry background on the images so the image will focus on the main part of the image. I would also be able to capture the depth of field in the image to make the main part of the image stand out. I would also be able to increase the aperture to create a sharp image with a large amount of detail. This will be used in landscape images to capture detail in the image. The aperture will be decreased on portrait images to capture the detail in the main part of the image.  https://youtube.com/shorts/eWYt7s_e_Ng?feature=share https://youtube.com/shorts/geekBKGK5K0?feature=share These videos are video...
