For this project, I decided to take a closer look at the lights that surround the sidewalk leading to the front door of my house. These lights have always intriqued me since they look exactly like the 'normal' size lamp post that we in our yard. The camera that I used to take these pictures was an Olympus 5.0 megapixel camera. It has some nice features that include a 3X optical zoom and a movie media with audio feature that allows you to take movies. It is a pretty basic camera that has settings for auto, portrait, landscape, night scene, sport, landscape & portrait, self portrait, and manual. Most of the time I use the auto setting since I only take basic pictures. The software that I used to edit the pictures is Olympus Master.

This first photo is from an adult's view looking down. This second photo gives the context of where the light is located by the sidewalk



The first photo view varied the angle of the photo. This second photo is taken from beneath the light, looking up.

The first photo shows how small the light is. This second photo shows a child's view of the light.

I did try the other features (portrait, landscape, etc.) that I mentioned above, but for me I really didn't see a very big difference in how the pictures look. Perhaps if I had a different subject other than the light I would have noticed the differences.
