Chickens
I want to take photos of my chickens with my telephoto lense so I can actually get close to them and take some fairly good and detailed photos. When editing I want to focus on making the background somewhat light so that the hen I shoot doesn't blend in and fade into the background.
My Shoot
Most of the photos in this shoot werent the best because chickens are easily spooked and therefore move and run too much to take very detailed and beautiful photos of them, but the photos that turned out good really turned out good and I am overall very proud of this shoot and happy I chose chickens as my subject.
Edited Photos
While editing these photos I focused mainly on detail and making sure that every part of them pops and nothing blends into other parts. I really like the first 3 photos because they turned out exactly how I imagined them to be but I'm very disappointed in the 4th one because it is an overall terrible photo. It is blurry and the colors just don't work well in black and white which is my fault, I probably should have chosen a higher quality photo to edit.
My Printed Photo
I really love how this photo came out because its very detailed and interesting to look at which almost makes it scary due to the fact that up close chickens aren't very pretty but I think that is part of the reason this photo ended up being successful. I'm very proud of this and happy with how it turned out which makes me excited to shoot more and play with black and white editing.
