Zone Focus it is important to have a zone of focus or a place where your camera is focused on so you can capture the action in that spot or letting it come to you
Shutter Speed allows you to capture the action litterally capture it you have to monkey around with it t oget it right for what you are shooting and how bright it is outside.
Panning helps you capture certain things that sre moving such as a person running on the track or a car going down the road.
Waiting for the Pause you get to know the thing your shooting such as a soccer game where when the ball is taken by the opposing team and all the players stop maybe even for a milisecond they stop and turn around.

Cover History
Cover types
1. Early Magazine Covers
Early magazine covers were usually modeled after the look of book covers there was usually only a title and publication data. sometimes a simple illustration was inlcudeed on the cover.
2. The Poster Cover
A poster cover features or shows a big photo or drawn picture on the front along with the name of the magazine and publishing information.
3. Pictures Married to Type
A pictures married to type cover includes everything that a poster cover includes but also has cover lines. Which i believe are the sentences or paragraphs scattered around the cover.
4. In the Forest of Words
A in the forest of words cover is almost just like a pictures married to type cover. But some of the main differences are that there are many more cover lines and that even some cover lines are bigger than the title.

What the pros do

Shutter Speed -shot at 1/640
Effect- the effect of shooting at a high shutter speed of 640 is that you can capture the action that is going on such as the football player flying through the air.
Aperature-f/2.8
Effect- the effect is that you get a lot of light in so the shot gets enough light to see the image when the shutter speed is so high.
Position- to me it seems like the photographer was standing right on the sidelines.

After Printing Post
Cleaned Negatives when i cleaned the negatives i cleaned them before i put them in the enlarger trying to get all the dust off i wasnt completely susccesful.
Loaded Negative into enlarger when i loaded the the negative into the enlarger i put it into the little black loader and pressed down the nob so it would stay in the enlarger.
Focused image this part i had a little trouble with i couldnt really tell with the tight focusing on seeing the crystals but other than that it was fine.
Set aperture when i set the aperature i twited the nob on the side which would click into different spots and would set the aperature
Made test strip when i made the test strip we just got a ripped strip of photo paper and stuck it in the enlarger and made strips of a print with different amounts of light aloud on it.
Made Final Print making the final print was the easiest part because i had all the practice with the test strip all i did was stick a piece of photo paper and pushed the timer button to let light through the negative onto the print.

1. What challenges did you encounter while trying to get close, capture real moments, and capture action or emotion? How did you deal with these?
Actually i didnt have any problem getting close or capturing action and emotion seeing as i was taking pictures of softball.
2. What technical aspects of photography (focus, exposure, composition) did you find yourself thinking about the most, and how did you make sure you did these correctly?
Focus was my big problem and that was because of the fact that i wasn't using my camera and because i was trying to take a picture of the players running and hitting the ball.Exposure time was fine because the aperature was set to auto, and composition was fine all together.
3. Describe how you attempted to use at least one of the advanced composition techniques when you shot.
Mostly i attempted to use the advanced composition of the rule of thirds i found it the easiest to accomplish.
