This photograph shows the literal reflection of myself. I've kind of got a look of being unsure, showing that what we see in the mirror is not always what either we want to see or what we think of ourselves.

I really like the lighting in the photograph. It has pretty nice rim light. I also like how you can see the back of my head so it actually looks like I am looking in a mirror.

If I had done this assignment again, I would have cleaned my mirror, moved the camera so you couldn't see it at all, and asked someone else to take it so I could have gotten the exact angle I wanted. I also should have put on a cute top instead of just wearing a sweatshirt.

Though they seem to be so different, they are family, and family loves one another. When I first thought of opposites, I had a hard time findi

He sold his process to the French and was given a pension. The daguerreotype used a silver plate to print the picture on and was one of a kind. The photogenic drawing was created by William Henry Fox Talbot. The photogenic drawing used paper and could be reproduced using the negative. A negative was produced which could then be used to create a positive. Both of these processes to create images were great inventions in the field of photography
