Time: Activity 2:

This photo was captured with a fast shutter speed (1/600). The dolphin is captured jumping perfectly in the air and the background is not blurred, its just still. There aren't any difficulties that the photographer encountered, maybe just waiting for a dolphin to come by, but that's something you can't really fix. The depth of field just includes the water going a bit further. Also, the images does give the impression of movement because the dolphin is frozen in the air and that gives it more a of a "wow" factor. It might feel like your with the actual dolphin.
This photo also uses fast shutter speed. The bubble is about to be popped and the only problem the photographer might of encountered, would of been making sure the bubble doesn't pop by itself. To overcome this, he or she would of blowed more bubbles. There isn't a depth of field because the background is blurred out and the main focus is the bubble. This photo does give the impression of movement because when the person is about to pop the bubble the waters specks show, you can see the bubble being popped, half of it is already popped and the other is in process of being popped.

Look at a Henri Cartier-Bresson photograph and discuss why you think that capturing the decisive moment has added to the picture’s quality. 

This photograph has a decisive moment because the young children are living in poverty and one of them is disabled or hurt. It makes me feel sorry for them and want to help them, so by that it makes the picture have more quality. This picture has a framing composition. (Photo by: Henri Cartier-Bresson)  
This photograph also has a decisive moment and gives the picture more quality because the little kid is by himself and the wall is ruined, so it makes it seem like he lives in a poverty area. It also, makes me feel bad for him.  (Photo by: Henri Cartier-Bresson)
