The Best Version of Myself
We have been learning to take pictures by using different angles and camera techniques.
The best Version of myself is when I am playing chess with my favourite teacher Mr. Matautia.
In Potu Ono, we have been learning about photography and how to take creative photos using different angles and camera techniques. It’s been an exciting journey to see how changing just a small detail—like the position of the camera—can completely change the way a picture looks!
Angles We’ve Explored
We started by learning about different camera angles. These include:
- High Angle: Taking a photo from above, which makes the subject look smaller or less powerful.
- Low Angle: Shooting from below, which makes the subject appear larger and more dominant.
- Eye-Level: This is when the camera is placed at the same height as the subject, giving a natural perspective.
- Bird’s-Eye View: A shot from directly above, which can create a unique and surprising perspective.
Photography Techniques
We also tried out different techniques, like focusing on an object in the foreground while blurring the background, or using the rule of thirds to make our photos more balanced. We discovered how zooming in can reveal details we didn’t notice before, and framing our shots with objects like trees or windows can create more interesting photos.
Our Reflections
Learning about angles and techniques has helped us see the world in new ways. We’ve had fun experimenting with how these skills can tell a story or change the mood of a photo. Some of us found that taking photos from a low angle made simple objects look larger-than-life, while high-angle shots made even big things seem tiny!
What’s Next?
We’re excited to keep practising these new photography skills. Who knows what kind of stories we can tell through the photos we take next? Stay tuned for more of our photo projects!
How Big is my Digital footprint?
What I have been learning is how big my Digital Footprint is. I watched a video about leaving digital footprints.
I learnt about identifying key words. I also learned to take a screenshot of my work for blogging.
With Mrs Raj I learnt how to share my work on my blog.
