Assignment+Light+and+Texture

 ==Light And Texture ==  The lesson is called "Light **and** Texture" because proper lighting is a big part of getting the perfect texture that you want to see.

For this lesson, you need a very steady hand. The school is made of brick, so that is a popular choice when pictures are taken by the Photography students. However, it isn't a very good one. More often than not, the first idea isn't the best one when it comes to photography. A better idea is leaves. There are plenty of falling leaves that make great pictures. Be creative in your ideas for this lesson, most great textures are found outside, so take a walk around town or in the woods, and you could really find something unique.

When you find something of interest, you have to set up your shot. Make sure you have lots of contrast, because then shadows get in on the little grooves of the texture, and make it more noticable. It's advised not to do closeups however, because then you might not be able to tell what the picture is of, and then you just have a mounted bumpy slate.

When I did this lesson, I took my <span class="IL_AD" style="background-attachment: scroll !important; background-clip: initial !important; background-color: transparent !important; background-image: none !important; background-origin: initial !important; background-position: 0% 50%; background-repeat: repeat repeat !important; border-bottom-color: #009900 !important; border-bottom-style: solid !important; border-bottom-width: 1px !important; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; color: #009900 !important; cursor: pointer !important; display: inline !important; float: none !important; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif !important; font-size: 12px !important; font-style: normal !important; font-weight: normal !important; margin: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 1px !important; padding-left: 0px !important; padding-right: 0px !important; padding-top: 0px !important; position: static; text-decoration: underline !important; vertical-align: baseline;">picture of a wooden post that had a chain, to keep cars froms from driving through the football field. I wrapped the chain around post, and then I got **two** different textures, one from the wood, and one from the chain. Find something unique with lots of texture. Try new angles and good luck!
