5 websites

Website #1
http://blog.ted.com/how-to-create-a-killer-timelapse-with-joe-capra/

On this website I watched a timelapse video that Joe made when he was sent to Rio with a promotion from Panasonic. I also read about his interview with the reporter and his answer are absolutely beautiful. You can tell he's a very educated person. He knows what he's doing. He encourages anyone who is interested to start doing timelapse photography because, "I think it appeals because it's something that you can't see or experience with your own eye. Even if you stand in the same spot for three hours, you don't notice the changes that happened in that time. It has to be shot, and you have to see it in video format to actually enjoy it."

questions:

a: The video is timelapses the photographer, Joe Capra took of Rio on a trip promoted by Panasonic.
b: Joe Capra took the video, he said he used to do just regular photography but when he saw a video that someone did of timelapses he wanted to try it, too.
c: The story is just the interview he had with the journalist; his answers to the questions
d: timelapse is an actual form of photography, I thought it was just for fun.

This photo really affected me because it used to say 13,000 years but now she had to cross it out and say "deceased" because, I figured, of what we do to our environment. Plus to photo is so simple, but the caption is what kills you. You look at it and it just hurts you.

Website #3
http://petapixel.com/2014/12/31/10-photography-resolutions-new-year/

This website made me realize a lot of things. One, new years isn't stupid. Two, photography takes talent, time. You need to learn different types of photography. Three, equipment isn't an excuse. TAKE PHOTOS. I feel very inspired for this new year coming up to try new things. No more excuses. AND don't be afraid to post them for fear of ridicule.

My favorite tip in here is this one:

"But the gear does not make the photographer. When someone says, “I could take photos like too that if I had your fancy camera,” hand them your camera. Go ahead. They usually snap one or two photos (if that), panic and hand it back. It’s not about the gear itself, it’s knowing how to use it to create the vision you see in your head."

It made me realize I have no excuse for my lack of taking photos. I need to practice.
