Artificial intelligences (AI) is used to help improve the world in so many different ways. Nowadays AI can be seen everywhere and easily used.  In photography cameras are now utilizing AI technology so many photographers have turned to AI to do tasks to help improve their photography or even speed up their workflow.  One of the most widely used forms of AI is in digital smart assistance like Apple’s Siri or Google Assistant. This kind of digital assistant can understand what your saying and transform the words you say into a variety of different tasks. Although AI software is up-and coming it has been used for years in digital cameras. Many newer digital cameras have facial and subject recognition. Portrait photographers love the ability for the camera’s autofocus system to instantly recognize the face of their subject. Some cameras and accessories even use AI technology to properly expose and photograph a scene. These tools can help photographers focus less on adjusting their settings and more on their composition. Artificial Intelligence has been around for a while to help photographers be more efficient and capture better images. There is no doubt that AI will certainly help revolutionize photography.

 

I would take a vacation to Glacier National Park. I would like to go camping at the park because i enjoy time outdoors. I would also enjoy the scenery and animals at the park.

 

Paragraph Synopsis:

Many photographers prefer to shoot in black and white for many reasons other than the aesthetics.  Color is very powerful and tends to dominate photos to the point that a lot of people struggle to see other key elements. There are certain subjects that tend to work better than others in black and white. A lot of people highly recommend the “Monochrome” mode to get basic black and white shots. Black and White is a beautiful medium to work in and one that you will appreciate even more as your skill grows.

Critique:

I took five photos in different exposures ranging from -2 to +2. I put them into photoshop and merged them together to make this photo.  I saturated the image and it made the photo more vibrant and contrast. I like how the clouds shaded part of the mountain so the snow looks more vibrant and pops. If I were to give this photo a name it would probably something like “Track” or “Running” because its a photo of mainly a track field.
