Service Learning

Literal
I have two people I did service learning for. One was Alan McDonald. He worked with me on the photo I had already taken and how to improve them on Photoshop. He also took me out to one of his photoshoots and around Mt. Baldy to take nature photos. His contact information is on the service learning form I turned in to Mr. Ogden. He met with me several times, 4/15/11, 5/12/11, 5/15/11 this semester. We were unable to meet more due to complications. I was moving and couldn't meet, then he had knee surgery and was healing so he couldn't meet.
Which leads me to my second service learning teacher, Jack Bohlka. He teaches the ROP Digital Photography class. We meet every Tuesday and Thurday from 3pm-6pm. In his class, I learned techniques, several types of photography, lighting, and basic Photoshop skills. Jack has been in the hospital since spring break so Mr. Daly subbed in, which is why he signed the form. Jack can be contacted through email, maybe, or Ms. Marin.
Interpretive
The most important thing I learned from both these teachers is how to improve in my photography. Both of  them taught me critical things to improve my photosm like framing, lighting, the angle, zoom, and how to improve them on Photoshop. I have seen a huge difference in my photos from the beginning of the year to now. They both taught me that there is always something to do to make a photo better, the trick is to think ahead of that and make if better before you even  take the photo.
Applied
Both teachers taught me what was important in photography. Then both taught me which importances are more important than others. Both taught me what kind of equipment one should have for any situation. Jack taught me about different kinds of lighting. Alan showed me how lighting changes the tone of a photo. And Jack taught me about composition, like rule of thirds and leading lines. Both Jack and Alan helped me to go more into depth of what is important in nature photography and allowed me to use these things hands on in my own photos.
