Day one of The Viewfinder Project helped to teach students new to photography about the basics of taking a good photograph. They learned about the importance of things like taking multiple pictures of the same object at different angles, applying the rule of thirds, filling the frame with the subject, and drawing the eye to certain points in the picture. It did not take long for these photography proteges to catch on to these principles and come up with some truly creative images while touring the neighborhood.
Here are a couple of the students' favorites from the day.
"This is one of my favorite pictures that I took; because it's close up and far behind it the blue background looks really good with the silver and gold can." Katie (age 11)
"I like the swing photo because you can see the swings through the first swing hole. You can also see the poles; the big ones are blue and when they get smaller they're yellow." Emma (age 11)
