Lenses and photography vocabulary
I would use a telephoto lens to take a photo that's far away but zoom into it.
I would use a prime lens to take a photo thats really up close.
I would use a wide-angle lens to take a photo of something that's big.
Depth of Field: the distance between the nearest and the farthest objects that appears sharp in a image.
By using this you can take better photos by getting different scenes in one photo.
Light: different shades of light that is shining on your subject
By using this you're going to have different shades of light on your subject that can really change the outcome of your photo.
Shadows: light can cause shadows, so when you are shooting be careful to not get a lot of the shadow in the far background.
By using this you can get different shadows in the background of your photo or none if your not going for any shadows.
Diffusion:
Exposure: the amount of light that is allowed to fall on each area of a photograph
By using this you can get just the right amount of light in the picture that you are taking.
Aperture: is a hole or opening that light travels through
By using this your photo will be focused just right and just the amount of light will be in your photo.
Shutter Speed: is the length of time the cameras shutter is open.
By using this short shutter speeds can be used to freeze fast moving pictures and long shutter speeds are used to blur a moving subject.
ISO: different ISO's can have different outcomes some can be grainy while others aren't.
By using this you can have different outcomes in your photos.

For W's biggest fashion issue of the year, the magazine celebrated the ways women today transform themselves by showcasing actress Kristen Stewart as readers had never seen her before. Photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggot transformed the 21-year-old cover model from the Twilight teenager that audiences know best into the glamorous, grown-up vixen she's becoming. "Vampires are a little dangerous—and we girls like to test ourselves," Stewart says playfully on the cover, tempting readers to pick up the issue and see for themselves.
This photo is communicated with fashion. I really like fashion or anything dealing with it. Kristen Stewart is in Twilight and I also like Twilight, that's another reason that I picked this article. In this photo she looks older then is she really is, but Im pretty sure thats what they were going for and they succeeded.

Magazine Tips
- One cover stands out vividly from the thousands in my half century of magazine-ing.
- The cover carried all the usual elements, but they were blended by the color, and that simplicity popped it out from its surrounding, gaudy competition.
- One of them decided to abandon fashionable elegance and do some hard-selling by covering the cover with as many pictorial and verbal appeals as they could squeeze in, using every color (especially process yellow), typeface, angle, overlap, silhouetting, shadow and trick.

I want to be in Newspaper because I want to keep going in photojournalism. And maybe do something with it whenever I get older. I like photojournalism because we get to express ourselves with cameras and learn new techniques to use. I really like working with cameras because its fun.
