Pet Portrait Plan

1. What type of pet will you photograph?
I will take photos of my dog, which is a chocolate lab, and my brother's, which is a great dane.

2. Where will you shoot?
My house, and outside at a park near my house.

3. What type of lighting will you use?
Natural, and occasionally a light.

4. What equipment will you need?

My camera and a tripod.

5. What challenges will you encounter?
Capturing my brother's dog. He is very active.

6. How will you overcome these challenges?
I will try and use a higher shutter speed or treats.

7. Post an example for inspiration for your shoot. Explain what you like about the photo and how you will attempt to emulate or use for inspiration.

I like this photo because it seems very candid, and the dog is not directly facing the camera, which shows the depth of the dogs nose.

2. In your own words, explain what makes an HDR photo an HDR photo?

3. What is bracketing?
    Taking multiple exposures of the same scene
4. What software can you use to produce an HDR image?
    Most photo editing software will work, all you need is to combine the good exposures
5. When selecting layers, what do you have to be careful about when creating your HDR photos?
    You have to be careful when you select the areas for the good exposure because you want to make              the photo look natural.
