Composition Of The Camera

   As photojournalists we have to remember a few basic things when taking pictures; camera settings and composition. 

   Though these two  factors are very important to remember all the elements.  Especially the Language of the Image. With it comes to the language of the image it describes the different types of image. Is the informational it more than a visual record of a person, single element graphic the relationship between the lines, shapes, and forms produces a  pleasing visual presentation. With these two you have no composition in the picture were the a person can understand the picture and  the photographer is coming from. Along with the setting it will also help you as photojournalism and photographer. Focusing on your subject is very important and it can help the picture much clearer to see. Without it being  fuzzy and out of focus. Watching the video on camera setting help explain, How does the f/stop work and setting your shutter speed and iso. These tools are very important make the picture least appealing. Understanding these as a photographer and a photojournalism

Journalisms To Writing

   The Photojournalism: The Professional Approach textbook advise writing full but short sentences for photo caption. Journalists use the associated Press Stylebook for standardizations with spelling, grammar and punctuation. Photojournalists also use it when writing captions that explain what the photo is about. When people looks at a photo, they need to understand what about, and we do that by answering the five Ws, and the H:who, what, why,when, and sometime the how.

This is the journalism part of Photojournlism.

First Five Amendment

The First Amendment - Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

   We, as U.S. citizens and photojournalists, are protected by five First Amendment freedoms.

   It seems we often take these freedoms for granted. We must know our right to exercise our voices; to speak what’s on our minds; and to not worry about being prosecuted by our government. 

   These rights allow us to say just about anything that is on are minds. The freedom of the press also allows American photojournalists to cover our own citizens and government in a truthful way, even if that way is negative.
