So here’s your assignment for your photo of the week. You will notice that you will be handing in 2 photos, not just one. And when it asks you to spend time thinking about what perspective means, I would brain storm a little bit about what perspective means beyond the formal definitions that are a part of this assignment. But most important, HAVE FUN!!
Hi all,
This is very imporant to note for this class. You may be using images that you got from artstor, from books, from places online for this class. You CANNOT use them in any way for anything else or post them to blogs, facebook, any type of social media sites, etc if they are not your original works. You can be sued for breach of copyright if you do. As my student, I can be sued as well if you do this. As a teacher at Pima, the school can be sued for this as well. Don’t get yourself, me, or the school into trouble. If it isn’t yours, don’t post it.

hey gang.
so our library had provided us with an amazing resource that i want you to know about. this will help you with your sources for your featured artists and your design journal.
there are libguides that are by topic on the library site. a lib guide is a guide that had been created for us by subject by the library staff that will link you to databases and resources that you can use for research. very handy!
to find the photography libguide follow these steps:
1. log into your mypima account
2. click on the library tab
3. on that tab look for “library search” and go down the list of options
4. at the bottom of that list will be research guides, click there.
5. in the pulldown menu headed browse by subject, select photography
6. you will then see a page with a link called photography (by Sandra lei) She’s our reference librarian. Click that link
7. you will be at the homepage that will take you to books, articles, databases and image searches. just wander through the tabs and enjoy all the things you can read and look at!
the url for that page is http://libguides.pima.edu/photography
These are links to artist Shelby lee Adams. He is a photographer who has been taking pictures of people from apalachia. He’s from Hazard, Kentucky himself and photographed folks in that area. the youtube link is to a clip from his documentary, The True Meaning of Pictures.
