Ansel Adams

Take a look at Ansel Adams photographs and notice the tonal changes from the light whites to greys, mid-tonal grey and black-blacks. Try to aim for this contrast in your photography. Use regular camera settings and make it black and white in Photoshop--remember curves, brightness and contrast just ot 'bump' up the difference :)

here is an email I was sent:....Anyone interested :)

Hi, Anna

The Community Clean-Up is on April 16th from 10 - 12/ 12:30 PM. . . .  starting from Riverside Park.
Lorne Clarke was originally going to take some photos for us 'highlighting the Green Events' . . .  but he will be out of the province that weekend  - working.
Sooo, do you know of any excellent senior photography students who would be willing to come to Riverside Park at  11:45ish to take some photos of

'green event' -  minimal waste/local food features:

Examples:  colorful signs showing the food scrap and compost buckets

                  people using real dishes for drinks

                  cloth napkins

                  local smokies sizzling on the BBQ

                   locally made buns (with local flour)

                  people enjoying the food/ BBQing

                  The Green Event Sandwich Board sign

These photos would need to be in as high a resolution as possible . . . we will be using them for a display later.
If a student is interested in doing this . . .   he/she could possibly earn some community involvement hours at school  if  they still have that requirement for graduation?
Free sausage, bun, and hot chocolate for the student, too :)
