Mike Carroll

Michael(Mike) Carroll is a Photojournalism that lives in Pepperell, Massachusetts and is most famous for the work he did in Romania.His assignment was to document Post-cold war Romania. But what he found was one of the most horrific discoveries in American history. He found thousands of orphans were being very poorly treated and hundreds were dying. So he took his camera and documented what he saw no matter how hard it was. Because of his works conditions improved and cloths and better technology were being sent to the orphans, Many were also adopted by people in different countries. Here are some of the photos he captured of the tragedy.

Andre Kertesz

Andre Kertesz was a Hungarian Photographer that lived from July 2, 1894 to September 28, 1985. And his main focus on Photojournalism which was a big market during his lifetime, but due to his obscure camera angles he never got the attention he felt he deserved. He felt as if he was unappreciated because most of his work was only published in smaller magazines. He also served in World War I and moved to Paris shortly after his honorable discharge. Here are some of his works.

Shutter Speed Post-Assignment

My Assignment was to take photos on the highest shutter speed possible on the camera to not allow blur on the photos. I evaluated my work on how clear the photo came out and to make sure nothing was blurry.I had people jump up and down to create the motion for the camera to capture. I really like how i captured the facial expressions of the models who were jumping. I think if i had more variety in where who and what i was shooting, the assignment could have turned out better.

Walker Evens

Walker Evens was an American photographer whose most famous fro documenting the great depression. He was born November 3,1903 and died April 10, 1975. Many of his works are held in Museums such as The Metropolitan Museum of Art. THese are some of my favorite works done by Walker Evens.


Ansel Adams

Ansel Adams was a american photographer who deeply believed in environmental ideology, who lived from 1902 to 1984. Most of his work is based upon landscapes which is why re relates to this weeks near and far assignment. These are my favorite works by him.

Shutter Speed Pre-Assignment

For this assignment we will start on a shutter speed of 1/200 and an IOS of 800. We will be trying to catch images such as the works of Eadweard Muybridge. For this assignment I plan to take photos of my fellow students jumping in different areas with different elements involved. I plan mostly to shoot on school grounds because of the fact that i will be doing the assignment during school time. I was really inspired by the pictures on the blogpost about the assignment, especially the one of the apple.
