Please watch this video in its entirety. It is only about 13 minutes.

https://www.ted.com/talks/stephen_wilkes_the_passing_of_time_caught_in_a_single_photo

Your steps for this discussion:

1. Now that you have had a bit of photography history, and gained a bit of appreciation for the beauty you can find in everyday images. I'd like you to take 3 photos of something

(landscape, building, people, animal, objects, anything) that is outdoors.

o Take the 1st photo in the morning

o Take the 2nd photo (of the same image) in the afternoon

o Take the 3rd photo (of the same image) in the evening/night

Same image, same point of view, same angle, same composition (meaning point your camera in

the same direction/same distance). I know you are not professional photographers - give this

your best shot.

2. Post your response (14pts):

2a. Briefly describe 3 new concepts/ideas you learned from this video. The concept/idea can

be about photography, art, science, anything. There is no right or wrong answer. I just

want to know what are the top 3 things you learned. Number your concepts/ideas 1

through 3. Please briefly describe what is it you learned and why it is a new thing for you.

2b. Embed the 3 photos in your post.

2c. What have you learned from looking at the 3 photos you took?

3. Please provide comments on 2 classmates’ posts (6pts).
