 Best tips-
1) background is key. 
2) Use both auto and manual focus


Environmental portrait-

I picked these two photos because they really capture the nature background and also focus on the person itself.

I picked these two photos because they aren't too focused on the background, it's just simple. 

                  

                          

I picked these two photos because they both look really fancy, and formal.

I love these two photos because the first one is simple and beautiful! The second one is goofy yet serious. 

Planning ahead-

 I plan to take a simple cute portrait, with either a plan white background. Maybe in front of a wall, or in the green courtyard. I'll use auto and even manual focus as well.

1.  A theme that I can use for my school is education. I would use education by trying to influence people that education is the key.
2.  I would capture people working on math, science, reading and history. Not only in academic classes but also in your elective classes. Especially in there Academy classes. I think that other people would care about this theme because some people do want to be successful and have a good career when they get older.
3.  Advantages of using a phone camera for this project is that you can take the picture and immediately post it on Instagram unlike a probable camera. Disadvantages of using a phone camera is that not all phone cameras have good quality.
4.  Advantages of using a SLR camera is that the quality of the camera will come out good unlike some phones. Disadvantages of using a SLR camera is that you can't immediately post the picture you took on Instagram.
5.  I think that we should use SRL cameras because everyone does not have a phone camera they can use.

Africa

 My reaction to the PowerPoint presentation was that I thought the pictures were very good and they were really clear. I never knew Africa was so beautiful and the animals are beautiful as well.

This is my favorite picture. I like it because this was like the only picture that caught my eye. This is my favorite photo because it shows a mother and her cub. thats really cute to me.

The rule of this photo is simplicity I think because its focused on the mother and her cubs.
