Academic shoot reflection


1. What challenges did you encounter while trying to get the photos following the rules I set out for you? 
- trying to find the right photo for the subject.

2. What technical aspects of photography or the assignment in general (focus, framing, holding the camera, etc.) did you find yourself thinking about the most? Provide a specific example of what you did to do this correctly.
-holding the camera and focusing the camera.


3. If you could do the assignment again, what would you do differently now that you know some basic rules of photography?
-take better pictures of the subject  and better focusing.

4. What things would you do the same?
- go to some of the same places to take some good pictures.

5. When you go out with your next set of prompts, which rule do you think will be the easiest to achieve?
-the lines set of prompts.

6. Which rule do you think will be the hardest to capture?
-the framing set.

7. What rule are you still not totally clear on and what can you do to figure out what that rule is?
-the avoiding mergers rule and i could look up what it means so it can be clear to me.

the story:
Photographer: Casey SimmonsWestlake High School, Austin, TX
Adviser: Cindy Todd
it looks like they where having fun with an experiment that showed a crazy reaction.
Action or emotion : they look excited also in chock and happy that the reaction of experiment came out like that and it looks amazing and fun.




fills the frame: this photo fills the frame because its mainly on her and what she is doing smelling some chemicals its showing her action. 








1. I choose this photo because its creative and the photo was taken right when the reaction happened.
2. some rules is that the photo is mainly on the reaction.
