Self Reflection
1. I feel that I deserve a P+ on my senior project, I have done everything that we were required to do. I am very involved with my ROP and currently have an AE in the class. I have a Picture of the Week on my blog, where I put a picture and information about the picture under it. I was one of the first to be approved on my science project, and I have also start to prep to begin the project. I am also helping clubs at school by taking pictures for them. I also have a real understanding of my topic and enjoy learning about it from my research.
2. I would have to say ROP, I have learned so much and I really enjoy it. I have already learned a lot of photography skill that help take a better picture. I think my photography skills are way better than they were before I started ROP. I have also learned a lot of things on Photoshop, which is really cool, since I didn't know anything about Photoshop. I am actually pretty good at Photoshop now. We recently had to do a 10 minute presentation and write a 5 page essay on two photographers with a group 5. I only had to write a page but I ended up writing a page in a half because I really enjoyed writing about the photographers. I also made the power point in my group and was very proud of the results.
3. I want to improve on my research checks, I usually take longer reading my research and margin note a lot of things but I never finish at the end of class. So I was thinking I should margin note two articles the day before and leave one for the next day. I would also like to improve the quality of my articles, they are not that long and don't have that much depth in them.

Blog 8: What I've Learned So Far.
1. What have you learned how to do since you started working on your senior project?
I have learned so many valuable things in the short time we have been working on the senior project. I have learned how to take a photo and keep in rule of thirds, how to focus shots. How to put dimension in a photo and how to do a good profile photo. We made business cards that we had to take profile pictures for and take a picture of a texture, the business card took awhile to accomplish. I have also learned the mechanics of a camera such as how to use shutter speed, aperture and how to do a properly exposed photo. Just today I learned how to a picture look like it has a ghost in it. I have also learned many things about Photoshop, from how to fix blemished to taking away shine on a face which can take awhile. Just after taking ROP for 2 months I have learned so much about Photoshop, I was surprised I wasn't half shabby; since I do not like technology that much. But my ROP teacher told me I am doing really good in Photoshop which surprised me. I have also learned what it takes to become a photojournalist, all the work they have to do and skills they have to attain.
Business card Personality panel
3. With the business card and personality panel my source is My ROP teacher Jack; he has helped me and taught me how to do these activities. Finding about what photojournalist needs to succeed I would say my National Geographic book the first research check and the the times book the first time I took notes. Those books have taught me what I need to do to became accomplished.

Senior Project Topic
Q: What is your topic?
A: Documentary Photographer
Q: Why?
A: I decided to pick documentary photographer because they can take a picture and it can tell a story. I think it is very interesting how one picture can change so many peoples opinions and views. When you get to be this type of photographer you are taking a picture of history, and it will live forever. Pictures can be controversial, inspiring, hopeful and so many other things, as they say a picture is worth a million words.
Q: What do you hope to accomplish after studying this topic all year?
A: I hope I will gain lots of experience and have many contacts after this year. Maybe even have a job lined up during college. I hope to be more skilled in this topic and decided if I want to further my career in this topic. I hope I can become a sucessful photographer and be able to convey my passions through a photo.
