In this photograph I have captured the middle of a shopping center in Oakland, California. I like this photograph because it was my first panoramic picture that I took. However, I do not like how the sun is creating a hot spot in the top left corner. This photograph was also an assignment for my photography class.
Since it was a cloudy day and the sun was creating weird casts I had to make sure my camera settings were set correctly. The aperture speed was at F 22 and the exposure speed was at 1/200. This photograph was still too bright; thus, I had to photoshop the picture to be darker. There is also some unneeded objects in this photograph that distract the audiences eye.
I took this photograph because I liked how cute everything was in this shopping area. Plus I love palm trees and the boat harbor is a dead give away that this was taken in California. However, like I stated before there are some unneeded objects in this photograph and without them in the picture would really improve the photograph. Also it was early morning with I took this photograph and I think if people were in the picture it would give the shopping center more character.
