Choice Sheets
For next year, I would like to continue taking this class but to the next level. I want to learn how to take really good pictures in commercial photography, but yearbook is what really catches my interest. I've wanted to be in yearbook since last year, before I joined commercial photography. The reason I want to take yearbook is because I want to get involved with the school. Being able to go to football games, or track meets and take pictures for everyone at my school to see would be awesome. So I want to take yearbook next year.

My Favorite Cover
This LIFE special edition, "To the Moon and Back," chronicles the first moon landing, brought about by the courage of the Apollo 11 astronauts and the thousands of people who supported their mission. On the cover is a picture of Buzz Aldrin, taken by fellow astronaut Neil Armstrong. Along with color photographs of this historic walk on the moon, there are biographical sketches of Neil Armstrong, Edwin Aldrin and Michael Collins. There is also a history of manned space exploration from the first single orbit around the earth orbit to the launch of Apollo 11. - See more at: http://www.magazine.org/asme/magazine-cover-contests/asmes-top-40-magazine-covers-last-40-years#sthash.w0NqwdLR.dpuf
I really like this picture because I like space and astronauts. Also, I love the way the photo is taken. How you can see what he is looking at because of the reflection on his helmet. It is talking about how Neil Armstrong, Edwin Aldrin and Michael Collins were the first people to go to the moon and come back to earth.

PART #4
I think the best ISO setting had to be 1600. I felt like the pictures came out so much better.
My next best photo was with the ISO of 800.
I was able to create equivalent exposures by adjusting the shutter speed & Aperture.
I learned how to use ISO and Aperture! YAAAAYYY!
