1. Titled "Final Exam"
2. Email with subject "Period 1- Final Exam"
3. Email signature with blogger link and weebly link.
4. The third photo in this gallery is what I believe is my most transformative photo. I learned to focus on whats really the concept of the photo and un-focus the background so that the concept of my picture is more clear to viewers. I think this changed my view on photography just by the way it looked like. I think what is really unique about the picture is that it's not like any normal plant/flower. The object itself is unique.
5. Shapes are closed lines and create a shape. They usually present length and width. Form is is three dimensional that also expresses length and width but also depth.
6. Pattern is repeating of an object or symbol all over on the artwork. Repetition is worked with pattern to make the artwork more alive. Repetition of objects creates unity within the art.
7. Movement is the path viewers take through the art work. It leads them to the main concept of the art work. This is my photo of movement. The pathway leads to the big MSJ Garden.
8. I think my best work was my Nature Photoshoot. I was pleased with my work because I love nature. Also, one of the pictures that I think changed my view on photography was taken in this nature photo shoot. This shoot changed me I think because it made me see nature in a different way. I saw a different perspective of the items in the MSJ Garden. Not only did it make me see nature in a different way, it made me see photography in a different way as well.

Student Website Review
1.Vivian Chang's Weebly
2. Anita Yen's Weebly
3. Isaac Hong's Weebly
My favorite picture from Vivian's site because it is very close up. It's close up and it's focused at front and somewhat blurred at the back of the picture. I also like the different combinations of rocks and stones in the picture.
My favorite picture from Anita's site because I liked how the candy was set up in specific positions. I also like how she even took out some of the Sour Patch and included that in the photograph.
My favorite picture from Isaac's site because I liked how the bike was positioned. When I saw it, I thought it was very unique that they let the bike stand on one wheel with the other placed on a tree. I also like the background and how it was included in the picture.

Multicultural Week
MC week so far has been fun. I got to try a lot of different foods. Although I didn't dress up according to the themes of each day, I saw other students and staff participate in that. I didn't take any pictures so far because I have been busy waiting in line and trying the different foods provided.

MSJHS Multicultural Week
Multicultural week at Mission is probably the most enjoyable week second to Homecoming. There are a lot of different types of food served to students and staff. Food is served Monday through Thursday then there's a Multicultural assembly on Friday. Lunch is made longer to allow the community to wait in long lines and to enjoy their food with their friends. Also, there are different themes each day of the week. Spirited students wear the countries of each day which is also matched with a color theme. Overall, its amazing to see how Mission's students come from all kinds of different cultures.

Shutter Speed and Everything After
Lens Blog Photo
1. This picture uses fast shutter speed because the trucks are moving and the clarity of the picture is really defined.
2. Rules of composition: leading lines and rule of thirds.
3. Element of art: Space; because there is a lot of area above and below the trucks.
4. Principle of design: Movement; because the trucks are obviously moving and one of the trucks is smaller meaning it is farther away. Also, there is a truck on the floor which adds more to the movement aspect in this photo.

Favorite Photo
From the gallery "Documenting the Blues in the Mississippi Delta", my favorite picture was "Shine and Sam Carr. Dundee, Miss. 2001." I think this picture is interesting because they're both having fun playing guitar. It looks like something that brings them together and spend quality time with one another. It seems like the man on the right is teaching his son how to play. It's cool how traditions and cultures are being passed down so they will never be forgotten.

Camera Roll Favorites
In the gallery "From Smartphones to Museum Walls", the pictures were very unique and interesting making it hard for me to limit myself down to having only one favorite picture. After trying to decide which picture to write about, I finally made a conclusion and established my "favorite photo". For one reason, I like this photo because the background is a beach with nice calm waves hitting the shore. Personally, I love going to the beach and I like summer so this photo fits perfectly to my liking. Also, this picture portrays some type of romance between a man and a woman. This was a very obvious feature with a lot of meaning. This component was very interesting and for me, going to the beach with someone special would be an amazing time. Lastly, the thing I found most eye catching was the necklace the woman was wearing. It's a very subtle detail but I thought it was a nice chic touch.
