OFF CAMPUS LANDSCAPE PHOTO SHOOT 2/16

Pick a scenic location where you can take pictures for your off-campus photo shoot. This should be a place with water, mountains, trees, or a combination of all of the above. I would recommend Carkeek Park, Kerry Park, or Richmond Beach. For your off-campus photo shoot, know where you are going beforehand, bring your camera and arrange your transportation.

• You will shoot at least 48 pictures at your location.
• You will turn in YOUR BEST 24 landscape pictures as contact sheets at the end of class on CANVAS. They should turn in 2 contact sheets of 12 pictures per contact sheet. Be sure to create a folder on your desktop titled LANDSCAPES.
• Title the contact sheets: Per_LastName_FirstName_LandscapeCS1Feb16

1. Make sure each shot has a large depth of field. In other words, make sure even the background objects are in focus.
2. In each shot make sure you have foreground, middleground, and background objects.
3. Most Landscape shots will have water, trees, and mountains.
4. Change angles and move all around the location.
5. Shoot horizontal and vertical landscape pictures.
6. Do not center the horizon. Place it in the upper or lower third.
7. Look for lines on the ground or even in the sky.
8. Use tripods as needed.
