Intro to CG II Extending the Moment
Decisive to Extended Moment • In Photo 1, week 1, you learned about the DM (Henri Cartier Bresson a.k.a. The Decisive Moment). • You have learned how to pull the trigger such as basic camera operation and composition. • Many pictures may truly exist for only a fraction of a second in time time, rarely, if ever, to be repeated. • I may be able to recreate a scene, but it is usually impossible to get the same shot again.
Controlled Shots • Many shots will have a highly controlled setup…and COULD be redone. MAYBE even improved. But it is unlikely that you will.
Controlled shots in the field • Even though it is a scene that was there yesterday and will most likely be there tomorrow, there are so many variables that make it just so because of exactly when you were there. • What are some variables that might occur for a shot like this? • Lighting (what time of day did you get there) • vegetation (what time of season) • water flow (very seasonal…high water during the spring, minimal during the summer, could turn to ice in the winter), • trees fall into the landscape during the winter • people wandering through your picture • camera equipment changes (i.e. better camera, better lenses)
