I have always been a fan of the arts. Drawing, painting, and sculpting are some of the hobbies that I have partaken in from elementary school all the way up to my senior year of high school. Creating new works of art and bringing the ideas in my head to life are some of the greatest moments I have had as a student. Art has always been one of my passions; however, I had never stretched my knowledge of the arts by trying new hobbies. I also never thought that I would fall in love with a hobby that I just started in. This new activity was photography, and it was my new passion. I have a regular digital camera to take pictures with, and that was the only type of camera that I knew about and that I desired to use. It was a red Nikon that I got …show more content…
As soon as I picked it up, I did not want to ever set it down. The pictures that I could capture with this camera were extravagant and breathtaking to me. I would wonder to myself, “Who knew that I could actually do this on my own?” At first, I started taking pictures of my animals and the sunset. The pictures of my dogs running were always so clear and detailed; however, nothing could compare to the sunsets that my camera could capture. It was a masterpiece with extravagant colors that left me unable to think. I would also venture a little more into nature and take pictures of flowers, trees, and butterflies to be specific. When that was not enough for me, I began to research the different modes on my camera so I could take pictures of human activity and my school’s sports teams. There were so many modes to choose from, including auto, sports, nighttime, portrait, manual, program, shutter priority, and so many more. I felt that I had to learn way too much information before I could begin, but I decided to try …show more content…
I practice with my camera almost every day, so it only gets easier for me to produce better and more professional looking pictures. Photography has changed my life because it helps me escape from life for a while. I get to look at the world through a lens and then create whatever I want to see. This hobby has inspired me to become a photojournalist, because I will be able to capture everyone’s happiest moments. I will get to experience every type of culture through my camera, and it will make me thrilled to see the beauty of this world. My life has changed for the better since I started my new hobby, because it has made me more confident with myself and it has made me perfectly comfortable with other people. Photography has taught me how to see the world in a different perspective, or in my case, through a different
A former point-and-shoot photographer can take professional quality pictures with a digital SLR (single-lens reflex) camera by learning about and experimenting with its complex operations. There are many advantages to making the transition from a point-and-shoot digital camera to a digital SLR camera. These include capturing images “more quickly, more flexibly, and with more creativity” (Busch, Digital 9). Furthermore, taking photos with a digital SLR camera reduces the amount of time that otherwise would be spent editing with photo-editing software to improve the quality of the photos.
I give in. My passion for writing is growing larger and larger each day, it has become the only thing I think about on a daily basis. It’s turning into a nuisance! I curse it to the back of my head every time it comes to fore thought. It twists my guts into an almost wrenching pain when I don’t have the chance to write something down on a piece of paper and make it my own. It forces the air from my chest as if I were a cartoon character with an anvil flattened. Where did I get this from, you ask? Let me tell you a story that explains my passion. Sit back, and enjoy the ride.
My mother once told me to take pictures during a family picnic. That was the day I discovered the art of photography. I found it fascinating how an image could be capable of sharing an entire story. What started out as a hobby, ended up becoming a life-long passion that has allowed me to develop into a more capable individual. When I saved up and bought my first camera, I read vast amounts of photography books and watched countless internet tutorials, in an attempt to teach myself how to become a good photographer. I would then use what I had learned and go outside, for hours at a time, and take pictures of the world around me. I even had the opportunity to practice commercial photography and graphic designing for various public events. These experiences have made a deep impact on my character. Growing up, I was reluctant to work with others, especially in school. Maybe because I was a natural introvert, I believed that in order for something to be done right, I had to complete it on my own and asking others for help was a sign of weakness. However, when complex situations arose during photo-shoots, I realized how lucky I was to be working and collaborating with talented individuals. By sharing the responsibility and by having confidence in my team, the quality of my work drastically improved, and in turn, I thrived in such an environment. It really was a surprise to me how photography has taught me the value of placing trust in others.
Photography is a superb pastime. Every day, increasing numbers of people take up photography like a hobby. Before the arrival from the camera, photography has attracted many into its grasp. But maybe you have considered creating a career from it like a professional digital photographer?

To me, photography is capturing portrait of a memory, person or thing; It is a creative style of expression. I chose photography because you can get to know someone just from seeing what they shoot and how they shoot. Every position that I have in school activities have to do with photography. I started getting into photography back when I was in elementary school and I started off with disposable cameras.
Now now, I know that it might not seem like an important topic to ponder over, but with the easy access to a camera on the iPhone, I thought it would be great to share some tips and tricks on the iPhone camera since not all of us own a professional camera or even have the time to head over to Martin Hall to check one out. I would have to say, the iPhone camera is one of the best invention since sliced bread. HAHA. Ever since the great invention of the iPhone camera, iPhonegraphy (iPhone-photography) is now commonly used to take photographs compared to professional cameras and even a compact digital camera.
I began doing photography four years ago. I was looking around the internet and I saw a photography page and was at all their different posts and I said I wanna do this. I started with a point and shoot camera because it was more of a hobby than a passion at that point in my life. At first naturally I was not very good ill admit it but I was determined to get better because no one likes to be bad at what they enjoy.
“Class,” I announced, “today I will teach you a simpler method to find the greatest common factor and the least common multiple of a set of numbers.” In fifth grade, my teacher asked if anyone had any other methods to find the greatest common factor of two numbers. I volunteered, and soon the entire class, and teacher, was using my method to solve problems. Teaching my class as a fifth grader inspired me to teach others how important math and science is. These days, I enjoy helping my friends with their math homework, knowing that I am helping them understand the concept and improve their grades.
Since my childhood till now it’s been my passion. Every second I’ve lived feels like I’ve lived for it. I m amazed how a piece of paper can capture the beautiful moment of your life and later after sometime looking at the same paper gives you immense pleasure and memories related to it are the sweetest one. To begin with, photography appeared to me as something entertaining, a simple step in which one takes a camera and simply shoot but it’s different, it’s an art in a way how best you can make the moment beautiful. The biggest reason I believe is just the ability of capturing a moment as it happens with just a single click of a button.
As we have seen throughout this paper, photography is more than just pointing a camera and pushing a button. No, photography is a true art form that can convey emotion and creativity from the photographer. Photography is an art that has and will live on for a lifetime.
Some full-color digital images are processed using a variety of techniques to create black-and-white results, and some manufacturers produce digital cameras that exclusively shoot monochrome. Monochrome printing or electronic display can be used to salvage certain photographs taken in color which are unsatisfactory in their original form; sometimes when presented as black-and-white or single-color-toned images they are found to be more effective. Although color photography has long predominated, monochrome images are still produced, mostly for artistic reasons. Almost all digital cameras have an option to shoot in monochrome, and almost all image editing software can combine or selectively discard RGB color channels to produce a monochrome image from one shot in color. The biggest invention would have to be color photography, they found out how to make it a resonable price, this made photography truly came to life. In the early 1940s, all color films (but not Kodachrome, 1935) were brought to the market. These films used the new technology of dye coupled colors. In this chemical process, it connects the three dye layers together to create a visible color image. After color film was brought out there needed to be an easier way for photography to be more on the go. In 1948 Edwin Herbert Land made this possible by inventing the polaroid camera. He made a one step process for developing and printing photos which created instant
Anybody that knows me knows that my passion and goals in life have to deal with fashion. If I could be anything in this world I would love to be a designer of some sort or at least be in the industry. When it comes to clothing and style it just comes easy one of the easiest things I’m good at. Fashion is an art form it allows you to express your view on style anyway you choose. And to me I feel like nobody has the right to judge that. Style hasn’t always come easy to be though just like everything else it takes time and practice it’s still a work in progress. When I look back to my middle school and early high school years I wonder deeply about my choices, middle school had to have been the worst. I was going through a colored jeans faze, I would wear bright yellow, honey mustard yellow, sky blue, purple, and pink. If somebody were to name a color I probably had jeans that color. It gets worse though because I would have the worst possible combination choice of shoes to go along with a matching bead necklace and bracelet set, followed by a grey or navy blue uniform shirt. It’s clear I had no idea what I was doing the best part is I was being myself and that’s all that matters. No matter how much I think my style has grown I’m only human and will look back and probably wonder why I wore the outfit I’m wearing sitting here writing this essay.
“Why do you read all the time?” This question has been commonly asked in the past and I still find it repeated even now as I have entered college. Even though I have been ridiculed for reading too much, it has never stopped me from continuing my passion of reading literature. Reading brings out my imagination, creativity, curiosity, patience, and other valuable qualities. I am a firm believer that the more you read, the more you are expanding your imagination.
