Killer Time-lapse

This video showed an amazing time-lapse of Rio de Janerio, Brazil. It showed many parts of the city, and it was really interesting to see time going by so fast.
The person who took the video was Joe Capra, an American photographer. I found an interview he did after he went to Iceland and made another time-lapse video (http://international-photographer.com/photographers-interviews/joe-capra.htm) that's also awesome. I will defiantly keep up with his work.

Spiral Staircases

This website showed pictures of old spiral stair cases in abandoned buildings. The photos were taken by Christian Richter with a Canon 5D. He lightly edited them in Photoshop as well. My favorite picture was this one:

I picked this picture because of the angle and lighting the stairs are in. It seems like the stairs go on forever, and it's just such a cool picture. I also really like the texture of the carpet on the stairs. It really makes the picture come to life.
I see depth in this picture, leading lines, and the use of viewpoint.

Projector

This was a video of a forest that was illuminated by a projector. They added cool effects to make it seem like some things were bioluminescent. The people who took this video were Tarek Mawad and Friedrich van Schoor. They spent six weeks in the forest using a powerful projected to illuminate the forest.

I learned that you can take pictures and videos like this without the use of photoshop.


The Oldest Living Things in the World

This gallery showed some of the world's oldest living things. From trees to brain coral, all of these things have stood the test of time.

I choose this picture because I love the way the trees are tilted and how they stand out against the dry grass. Some rules of photography in this picture are depth, leading lines, and symmetry. The photographer of all these pictures is Rachel Sussman.
