How do you cope with stress?
  -I cope with stress by being in my room and going on Tumblr. I look up photography or just look at my feed that people have either posted or reblogged. I find some really creative or interesting pictures and i just get lost in them all and forget about my stress.

Academics Photo Shoot Preview


The Story- I believe that this picture is See You at the Pole. An annual gathering for Christian students of all ages at a flagpole in front of their local school. It shows how they are all coming together and they all support and are there for each other. Their religion brings them together and unites as one.


Action and Emotion- The emotion in this picture is great. They seem so happy by the lab that they are doing. It seems like they got pretty interesting results and that makes them happy. 



Filling the Frame- A lot of things are going on in this picture. Students are doing some type of experiment which fills up most of the picture. But the desks in the left top of the picture fill up that area and the classrooms belongings are in the right top. Everything within the frame; there is something going on.

My Ideal Car

I really want a 2013 Shelby Mustang. Black leather interior, all blacked out on exterior. Two red striped down the middle of the car. 662-hp. HID headlamps, and the cool LED tail lights. Twin fuel pumps, larger fuel injectors and a three-row intercooler, Tremec 6060 six-speed with an internal oil pump. Automatic. I want red underflow lights along under the bottom.

Photo Manipulation and Ethics
I. 

A.) Someone at the newspaper in the Middle East manipulated a picture of female ministers Limor Livnat and Sofa Landver and had replaced them with two male individuals. Some pros say that manipulation isn't right and that the basic rule is "do not lie." A Code of Ethics was updated in 2004 and addressed television and visual editing since the one in 1946 didn't address that. It is basically to maintain public confidence while the media/pictures are out and about. 

B.) Morally I think its wrong. It's basically a fake. Why would anyone want to make people think something is there when its not? Pictures of important people, nature, cities, citizens and anything really shouldn't be messed with. People could get the wrong idea or think something bad of it and ruin someones reputation when its all just a scam. 

II. 

A.) I think this is the most unethical picture because the real pictures show that he was protecting the civilians. The editor made is seem like something completely different like he was threatening the man or something. The man with the baby looks frightened in photo because the original photo was the soldier protecting everyone from gunfire, so they took the mans face was obviously startled looking due to the gunfire. 

B.) I think this is the least unethical picture because all they did was move the pyramids closer together so that they would fit in the vertical cover of Nat. Geo. I mean, its not a good thing because it may have people thinking that they're actually that close together, but in reality they're not.
