Discussion





1) What are some photographic effects that can be achieved using digital or analog (darkroom, film, lights etc) technology?




Dodging and burning: both digital or analog technology can achieve this effect. This effect is aim to make a particular area become lighter or darker.













Color subtraction: Achieved by the digital technology.That some colour can be take away from the photo.Then the remain colour can be dominant in the photo composition.













Contrast enhancement(for digital technology): enlarge the contrast between two different colours.

2) What are some photographic techniques that can only be done using digital technology?

The editing of the photo can only be done by using digital technology
For example , use a funtion of White balance to edit the balance of the colours to create a photo with big colour contrast.
Also, Image sharpening can noly be done by the digital one too.By using the digital technology, people can change the texture of the taking photo, the whole photo can be sharpen.



3) What is the difference between analog photography and digital photography?








The former one have different new funtion for adusting the photo.For example,you can adjust the original colour of the photo or you can change the size of your own photo by setting different shotting effects .Therefore, to compare with the former one, the traditional one may have little possibility to crete different effects with photo.Thus, it is more creative for the digital photography.

  1. This is a nice work.From the 1st picture,I can see the doll on a box.From the 2nd picture, the doll and the box mix together as if a new picture.And the colours are of the same tone.After re-making it,the doll seems to have a different personality(a bit evil).:>

  2. You are right, choosing digital photography can use more effects,
    but do you think that it is not that good if photography only stands for using photoshop to adjust or edit the photos, but not really know how to use the camera?

  3. Tammy, Thank you ~ I have visited to our blog too.Your photo is nice .The green hair is funny~~

    digital kit, you are right, although it is convenient to use the digital one, people seldom familiar with the operation of their cameras. However, I think both of them have their strengths to remain since people may use for different reasons.For artists, they may familiar with their camera and know how to take an artistic photo,but for the ordinary people, they may only care about the accuracy of capturing a special moment.Thus, their targets are different.
