Your favorite song of 2009Pursuit Of Happiness- Kid Cudi Its nothing to impressive in the video, givin the song name is enough to know what the song is about, him having a huge party and explaining that the flashy jewelery and famous people he meets isnt gonna make him happy automatically, really down to earth.


The most important piece of world news of 2009

Portraits & Self Portraits

Tips for Self Portrait
1. Give it a timer, primarily about 10 seconds to get yourself prepared.
2. Change the angle of the camera and give it diverse feel to it.
3. Look away from the camera to give a more affective feel to make it seem as if it was a pose.

I will be shooting myself in the portraits, making sure i have a timer to take the shot,
possibly if i could i will be taking the portrait downtown area to give it a urban area.
I will have alot of diverse elements in the picture, i would like to add the rule
of thirds and making black & white with the camera angle being somewhere
above ground level and checking the lighting on the camera so i wont have any bad glare in the print and in the negatives.
