Romanticism is the attitude or intellectual orientation that characterized many works of literature, painting, music, architecture, and photography in Europe. over a period from the late 18th to the mid-19th century. romanticism goes against the industrial revaluation, to escape modern reality and to go against the political norms and policies.

what is sublime. Sublime has long been understood to mean a quality of greatness or grandeur that inspires awe and wonder. From the seventeenth century onwards the concept and the emotions it inspires have been a source of inspiration for artists and writers, particularly in relation to the natural landscape. but what does it mean to photographers maybe its making something look great like god and to make the person looking at the photo feel small.

this photo shows a ship in a storm and how the storm makes the ship look small compared to the storm, it shows how nature can makes us feel small and helpless that whats what sublime art is suppose to be.

these are the final images they have been edited and its shows a colourless photo a coloured photo and a the original photo. also there is another photo

for photography at the start of the course I wasn’t here join a bit late however I believe I caught up, I have learned about how shutter speed works and how it make a difference between a good photo and a bad photo, I have also learn about aperture and how it effects how much light is let into the camera. I have also learned how to edit on Lightroom classic and photoshop which I have never used before. I have also learned physical photography by learning how to frame pictures and put them on foam board. over all I believe that I have gotten better at photography but I can improve.

I made a separate blog post about the picture above this but I edited a photo of a photo gallery and put some of my photos in it.

for this I got a photo online of a art gallery then I took a screenshot of the photo and put it in photoshop then I got my edited photos and put them on top of the photo on the gallery photo.

A photomontage is a collage constructed from photographs.Historically, the technique has been used to make political statements and gained popularity in the early 20th century (World War 1-World War 2)
Artists such as Raoul Haussman , Hannah Hoch, John Heartfield employed cut-n-paste techniques as a form of propaganda…as did Soviet artists like Aleksander Rodchenko and El Lissitsky
Photomontage has its roots in Dadaism…which is closely related to Surrrealism
