PPSOP : These are pictures taken while taking an online photography course at the Picture Perfect School of Photography.
www.ppsop.com
The first four week course dealt with composition. The second with themes and concepts. This was followed by a course on flash photography, breaking the rules of photography, and Conceptual photography with an emphasis on emotional impact and studio lighting. After a 2-3 year hiatus, I am now taking a course on Landscape photography.

Comments and critiques are welcome.

assignment: Ok, time to continue on with our creation. We are going to take our original idea and play with the composition. Shoot it at different angles. Try getting closer to the subject or backing away. Put the subject in different areas of the frame. Don’t be dictated by rules but do keep them in mind.

Why eggs should wear helments. This is a modified picture of the one I submitted for the class. I put in the caption with the thought of using this as an educational poster on the importance of wearing a helmet.

Biohazard Hypodermic Needle
Lesson 1, Pic 5

We were ask to choose a theme to shoot a series of photo's througout the the course:
Theme "Macro Shots of Water"

This is the symbol for Biological Hazard. It was on a container used for the disposal of sharp items such as hypodermic needles. The needle is a 23 guage needle this is quite small. This would also make a concept photo for the words safety or caution.

Flash at -1 exposure compensation used to illuminate the background and give a highlight to the drop. 68mm of extension tubes. Some reflections of overhead flourescent lights cloned out of the drop in Photoshop and a slight crop.

Pali Tunnel at night
Lesson 3, Pic 2 Assignment: Framing the subject
Canon Rebel XT Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 at 32mm F/5.0 1/8s 800
I took a cue from my friend who is taking the UNEX course. He shot a picture while driving a tree lined street. I tried a safer route and mounted my camera on a tripod and used a shutter release cable. I must have driven back and forth through this tunnel a half a dozen times. There was a fine rain which adds even more the the haziness.
