Front Pages of the World

1. My favorite news paper front page was the San Antonio Express News. I liked it because of the way it's layed out. I liked how the main storys' picture is the first thing you see, it is really big too.

2. "FBI gives bomb suspects faces" was my favorite headline, it caught my attention. I think it would catch anyones attention because it's about the Bombing in Boston and how they might of found who set off the bombs!

3. About 5 stories.
4. They all have a main story which is bigger than the others. I think most have some ads on them.
5. They have different layouts but not all that different. The fonts are different.

SLO practice.

My Yearbook Spread

Lenses and Photography Vocab.

I would use a telephoto lens to shoot pictures of objects that are far away. For example, I would use a telephoto lens If I wanted shots of the animals at the zoo. You can't get really close to them so a telephoto lens would be perfect to get zoomed in great shots.

I would use a prime lens to take pictures of close objects since a prime lens cannot zoom. Maybe, I would use a prime lens to take shots of a sunset since it is a bit dark.

I would use a wide-angle lens to take a photograph of something that I wanted to get the whole shot of. I would use a wide-angle lens if I wanted to make everything come out in the picture. For example, If I were to take a picture of a beach I would want the ocean to come out and some of the sand part to come out as well, I would use a wide-angle lens in that case.
