Blur and Sharpen
In this picture i had to blur out the mountains to 85% to make them the most blurry. then the hills at the front were at 20% so they weren't that blurred out. the town had to be sharpened because its the main focus point, it was sharpened at 50%
i blurred out the background to 100% and then sharpened the characters to 69% and the glowing ball was at 100% sharpened
Basically, i'm going to hell.

Fashion photography
When is an image a Portrait and when is it a fashion photograph?
An image is a portrait when the focus point is of the models face. the word portrait means 'a painting, drawing, photograph, or engraving of a person, especially one depicting only the face or head and shoulders.' when its a portrait it has to be of the head to the shoulders and not beyond that because that was class as a photograph not a portrait.
\
A fashion photograph can be a portrait but in
the picture there will be branded sun glasses or scarf or something to advertise a specific item that goes on your head or neck. but a fashion photograph is mostly of the models body because of the clothes that they will wearing which are used to advertise a certain brand of clothing. when having a fashion photograph, the head doesn't even need to be in frame because if there isn't anything branded clothing on the head then it doesn't need to be in
To what degree should an image be manipulated to go into a fashion magazine?
i think images should only be manipulated enough to actually stay real, because most of the pictures that you see in magazines these days are 100% not what the model looks like in real life. there is so many manipulative programmes and websites that destroy what the model actually looks like, such as Photoshop. i really don't think that photoshop should be used because it hides inner beauty sometimes it makes models look like dolls because its so fake.

portraiture/ Walker Evans
PORTRAITURE:
Portraiture has come along way since the camera was first introduced because the only way of getting a portrait done was by having yourself painted by a professional artist. you would only get painted if you were famous, rich, or important of some sort.
walker Evans was an american photographer best known for his work on Farm Security Administration (FSA) who mainly worked on 'The Great Depression'. Much of his work was taken with a 8x10-inch camera with a large format, for the FSA. He said that his goal as a photographer was to make pictures that are "literate, authoritative, and out of this world''. Many of his works are in the permanent collections of museums and have been the subject of retrospectives at such institutions as 'The Metropolitan Museum of Art' or 'George Eastman'.
Born in St. Louis, Missouri Walker Evans came from an affluent family. His father was an advertising director. He spent his youth in Chicago and New York City. He graduated from Phillips Academy, in Andover, Massachusetts, 1922. He studied French literature for a year at Williams College, spending much of his time in the school's library, before dropping out. After spending a year in Paris in 1926, he returned to the United States to join the edgy literary and art crowd in New York City. John Cheever, Hart Crane, andLincoln Kirstein were among his friends. He was a clerk for a stockbroker firm in Wall street from 1927 to 1929.

Word Profile of Thomas Hoepker
Thomas Hoepker Profile
Thomas Hoepker is a German
photographer born in 1936, June 10th. He is a member of Magnum Photos and well
known for his stylish colour photo features. He also documented the 9/11 World
Trade Centre destruction. He first started taking photos at just 16 years of
age with his grandfather’s old 9x12 glass plate camera. He developed the prints
in his bathroom and his kitchen, and he started to sell them to his friends and
to the public to earn a little money. He studied art and archaeology in
Germany. He was only there for a year but he was taught about understanding
images and composition. In 1960 to 1963 he worked as a photographer around the
world for Kristall. Then in 1964 he began working for a big company called
Stern Magazine. In the 1970s he also worked for German TV and a cameraman.
Making a lot of documentary films and Magnum Photos first began distributing
Hoepker's photographs in 1964. Hoepker became a full member in 1989. He served
as Magnum President from 2003 to 2006.
For a long period of his
career, Thomas Hoepker used the Leica camera because he could get his Leica
camera to take photographs for the wider angles he wanted to shoot. Thomas Hoepker’s 9/11 photo wasn’t published
in 2001 he thought his own picture was too confusing to be published in 2001.
Thomas Hoepker had been trying to make his way down to Manhattan on the morning
of 9/11. On the way there he saw out of the corner of his eye, he saw a scene
that showed a group of young people that were sitting in the sunshine while the
dark thick smoke was rising behind them, in the background. He got out of the
car, took three shots of that scene and drove on to get closer to Manhattan. That
great image ended up on a wall in an exhibition, in his hometown Munich. The
image was with 200 other photographs of his. The image was also on the cover of
his book (Return of the Maya) which was with the show as well. When he did
guided tours that particular photo kept having questions being asked about it
by people viewing the exhibition and the press too. For the newspapers, the photo was published
in 15 newspapers in Germany and in United States newspapers it was only
published once.

of the Maya’
