Photo Practise

Today we practised taking photos. Here is a slideshow showing you some of the best shots from our learning:


We came up with the start of a rubric for what makes a great photo which we will add to next time we work on photos:
  1. Focussed - not blurry
  2. Framed well - another word for this is composed well, ie. not chopped off
  3. Good lighting - not too light or dark depending on what you want, plus the flash isn't ruining the shot.
  4. Interesting subject - a photo of something that is actually worth taking a photo of.
Once we had our ideas for what makes a great photo, we broke into groups and focussed on the following areas:
  • Shooting great photos - in pairs or threes
  • Importing photos into iPhoto
  • Naming photos using iPhoto

Some of us learned how you can alter photos using iPhoto (Tom and company).

    Focussed 1 - The photo isn't focussed and is all blurry. We can't see it properly.

    Focusssed 2 - The photo is just a little bit clear.

    Focussed 3 - The photo is really clear.

    Focussed 4 - The photo is not at all blurry and really clear.
