On a Mission


By: Kayla Stueckle
This is a shot a got at our boy’s varsity basketball game last Friday. It was the last picture I took and I felt like I had ended on a good note. I was so excited with the look: both boys are in stride, running and looking the same way. Our gym is EXTREMELY poorly lit so trying to get good, clear, and sharp action shots is difficult. I did a levels adjustment and played around with the saturation and then ultimately decided to just go black and white with it and give it a sort of brown/tan tone. All in all I think this shot turned out cool.

I took this picture for an assignment night photos I was trying to get out in time and get a picture of the moon but I was too late. I climbed out onto the top of my roof to take this picture. I had to have a tripod because the shutter speed was really slow.

Perfect on Pointe


Photo By: Ali H.
I took this photo for a shoes assignment one night after my dance classes. I tried to get different views of someone’s feet on pointe and in tap shoes. This was one of my favorites because of the shoes being the only thing in focus and because of how close I got to the subject. I was happy with my results and like the worn look of the pointes.

I took this while taking my night pictures. It’s my house address with Christmas lights around the pole. I really like how the letters get bigger the closer they get to the camera.

I took this picture for my shoes assignment we were assigned. I really liked the lighting on this picture and it really gave it a cool look to it for some reason. I used not natural lighting and turned off all the other lights to give it a different look.

I took this picture when I was doing my night project. My best friend and I went to a park and we shined the head lights of her car on the grass and parking lot. I really liked how it turned out. I was just trying to capture something from a different angle.

Mt. Rainier's Cloud Cap


I took this picture on December 5th, before I had to cheer at a basketball game. I have never, in my 8 years of living in Washington, seen the clouds form like this over Mount Rainier. It was crazy! I didn’t have a tripod with me in the car and I didn’t want to miss the shot, so I didn’t use one. I set the aperture ranging from 3.5-6.3, with shutter seeds from 150-500, and the ISO at 400. For this particular shot, my settings were the f-stop at 6.3 and the shutter speed at 320. I made a few minor adjustments, but not too many. Overall, I’m very happy with this photo (:

This photo was taken for our shoe assignment. Out of all the pictures I took, this one really was my favorite. The focus is great, and the depth of field is awesome. I really like the set up, with the shoes being off center, and the colors are also pretty vibrant. I didn’t do anything to change this picture.
