Marissa Watson Mr.B Period 2: Self Portrait
In this picture I was about 5 years old; this was taken on picture day. My mom did my hair and put me in my favorite dress with the polka-dots on it to make sure that I looked my best. I never liked wearing dresses because I really enjoyed playing outside. This was the one day in the year that I couldn't play around at recess because I had to remain clean. My hair was in an 80's inspired side-ponytail with the rest hanging loose. This is one of my favorite pictures from my childhood because I can see the pure happiness I had as a child.

Marissa Watson Mr.B Period 2: Notes: Digital Camera Modes
Digital Camera Modes by: Darren Rowse
- Automatic Mode- Allows the camera to use it's best judgement to take pictures. Will automatically select ISO, shutter speed, focus, aperture, etc.
- Some cameras will allow you to override the flash or red eye reduction.
- Portrait Mode- Camera picks a large aperture and helps to take the background out of focus.
- Portrait is best used to take a picture of a single subject.
- If in the sun it is best to add a little flash to add light to the subjects face.
- Macro Mode- allows you to move closer into your subject to take a close up shot.
- When shooting try to keep your camera and the subject parallel of each other.
- Landscape Mode- is the opposite of Portrait mode and is taken with a very small aperture.
- Landscape is ideal when shooting wide scenes (ex. Mountains)
- Sports Mode- Photographing moving objects (also called Action Mode)
- Used to photography- sports, cars, animals, wildlife, etc.
- The sports mode tries to slow down the action to help slow down the action Panning will be effective.
