Week 4
This weeks topic is buttons! Buttons are very useful in clothing, it is an essiantial in fashion. Buttonholes were not invented until the 13th century. Did you know that there were different names for buttons? Buttons were involve in mainly men's fashion, they used them for their coats and collars of their shirts. Buttons are actually made from natural products, but they required more work than plastic buttons. They are made in a long process to get the wanted shape, size, design, and color.

Week 3
Topic this week is sweet and satisfying. Yup the topic is chocolate! We don't only get it for free on Halloween but it is in probably every store. Chocolates have a certain taste that makes people addicted to them. The word "chocolate" came from Mexico and Central America. Chocolate commonly comes in dark, milk and white. Dark chocolate somewhat has a sweet and bitter taste to them. Milk chocolate is usually sweet and popular ones are Hershey's chocolate. White chocolate in my opinion is the sweetest out of the three. Chocolate comes in different ways, they can be eaten or drank. In Europe, it was fashionable to drink chocolate. Though chocolate comes form a plant, its not necessarily good for the body. Chocolates have a lot of calories, fat, and especially sugar. They are filled with sugar and sodium. It maybe bad but it is very hard to resist. Picture below is one of my favorite chocolates: Snickers

Week 2
This week's topic is SPIDER WEBS! Nasty, creepy, yet fascinating to see. It is the creepiest thing that is ever out there. That is why I left the lens to one of my partners, I'm sure they will be much braver than me. Its pretty crazy how the pictures turned out to be it seemed so unreal. All the little things that appear that us humans are afraid to see up close. Did you know, spider webs are created to catch a prey such as flies and other insects. They use this device to catch their food and for their home. Spider webs are a bit creepy but they are so cool to look at. Also spider webs are pretty stable, when hosed down with water it will not come out. My father tried so many times and still does not work. The picture below is found on https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=5&cad=rja&ved=0CE8QFjAE&url=http%3A%2F%2Fkids.nationalgeographic.com%2Fkids%2Fphotos%2Fgallery%2Fspider-webs%2F&ei=EIH9UuWpBeaHygHh-oE4&usg=AFQjCNEYDvrtPnXE9iP1ubKm5YEHKSf1ng&sig2=gmIDsczhBIkHYuAZjqVBrg ,they have interesting information about these creatures. check it out!!

Week 1
This weeks topics is money !! Yes, it may be a bit random, but it is very interesting. I mean we never see the real appearance of our money. NOT only coins but paper money, close up they have so much color pigment in them. Obviously my partners and I are running out of ideas but we are still working on it. It is not that easy to think of a good topic. Next weeks topic may be a bit creepy though, well at least for me. That is why I passed on the lens to Gino. I just can't handle that kind of topic. Any takers of what it will be? Well keep following us on instagram, we sincerely appreciate our audience. Maybe we might do a tutorial on how to take a good picture on a camera and even upgrade to a professional lens. We just need to keep focus and determine and get people's attention. Picture : by Gino

Week 8
This week we did not have a topic because research needed to be done. Not that my team is not familiar with the things we are doing, but to learn a little bit more about the lens and the techniques that are needed was necessary to have a good photo. The research I have done was about how to take photos with the macro lens professionally with a phone camera. I wanted to see if there was different ways to take the picture and the different angles I can take the object with. It was not a hard thing to learn but it took time to actually get the right position and angle. The hardest part was to find the right source to learn from. I learned that you should be at least 4 inches away from the object, so that the camera will focus the right way and will not have any glitches. Another thing is that should focus on the little details of the object so when the picture is taken it will be more "catching to the eye." The weirder it looks the better the picture looks.

Week 6
This weeks topic, is plants! I know it is not that exciting but you will be surprised. Plants are so beautiful and the most beautiful is the ones that are awkwardly and as people may call it "ugly". No matter the size or color of a plant they all have a specific beauty to them. People don't really notice the real beauty of plants. Just them growing and making things look so interesting makes a persons day better. Plants are not only beautiful but they help us. How? Plants give us oxygen and gives life to us humans. Just imagine the world without any plants, wouldn't it look boring and plain. Plants also give us medicine, in the old days people will use plants as remedies for the sick. This shows that it can help our body with its nutrients and vitamins it has. Plants or certain flowers can be made as dye to use for clothes and other things. It gives the world color, so stop and appreciate what we have. Please do follow us, we will very much appreciate our new followers and if you guys want leave a suggestion for our topic next week !
