This is Mr. Mora. My favorite teacher. Mr. Mora is a freshman honors biology teacher. I had Mr. Mora fifth period when I was a freshman. Why is Mr. Mora my favorite teacher? Mr. Mora had a saying that was my favorite. He always said on Friday’s “2 days off my treat”. Every Friday I would look forward to hearing 2 days off. Mr. Mora had a treat for everyone on Friday’s. Mr. Mora would always stop the lesson 15 minutes before class ended and we would watch gross videos. Such as pimple popping, what would you do for $100’s, people throwing up on sling shot rides, what happens when you don’t brush your teeth for years. There are so many more gross and nasty video’s that Mr. Mora had showed us on Friday’s. But those are some that came to mind. Mr. Mora was such a great teacher when it came to teaching his students. He made the lessons understandable along with fun.

This studio portrait used different gels like blue, red, and maybe purple. The girl shows no emotion. Half of her face is blue. The other half is red. The background looks like a light purple or a darker pink.

I think that this is a good HDR. I think that I did a good job. But I think that I could have done better with the editing the colors.  I think there should be more clouds. It looks good for my first HDR assignment. In the future with more practice, I could do a better job.

I like Aaron Siskind’s work because not many people take picture in black and white. His work has different shapes, texture, color and in some photos his pictures make you wonder what he took a picture of. I chose this picture because the way the rocks are placed it makes unique shapes, along with the texture, almost like you can feel he rocks.
