Watch has I show you how to navigate the camera app and how to set up a photograph. You challenge for this week will be both technical and creative.
Your Challenge: 1. Take three photos that you think express the idea of "Strength". 2. Each of these photographs must include a short one or two sentence explanation. This is not school I don't care about speling or grammar, haha. 3. Each photograph must follow the rule of thirds: meaning that the focus of the photograph is not in the center. |

Roy DeCarava is one of my favorite photographers. DeCarava first began to use photography as a means to record and as reference for his paintings, but was so enthralled by the medium that he began devoting all of his time to it.. He used his camera to produce striking studies of everyday black life in Harlem, capturing the varied textures of the neighborhood and the Harlem Renaissance. Resisting explicit politicization, DeCarava used photography to counter what he described as “black people...not being portrayed in a serious and artistic way.”
