1. Something that could go wrong is that while moving, my picture might not line up how it's supposed to and the pictures won't match up. 2. A good place to take this type of picture could be on the track. 3.

You could wear something that isn't bright so that the sun doesn't reflect on it in different places?

Bullying is a big deal and is extremely common. 1 in every 4 U.S. students claim to have been bullied. There are many different types of bullying but they all have the same effect. Even something as small as laughing at someone or starting a rumor is pulled into that category. This mainly happens at school, especially throughout middle school. Schools are not handling this effectively because the numbers haven’t changed. I don’t think that anyone should have to go through weeks or even months of mental abuse. Schools really need to stop trying to get people to make the counselors office seem like somewhere that you need to go to if you're being bullied. Kids these days would rather be bullied than called a tattletale for telling on them. Instead, they should pay more attention to what goes on within their walls and realize whenever someone is being bullied. In 13 Reasons Why, Hannah was hurting and went to the counselor and explained that someone abused her and he told her tha

1. What was one idea that the writer gave in the Wide Range of Topics section that you can use as you start deciding on a topic? Make the frame wide enough to allow your readers to find similarities between your experiences and theirs. 2.

The Taj Mahal A back-lit Nebraska Storm Vedd 1. What manipulations to the camera will you need to make to create an HDR image? If you have a Auto Exposure Bracketing function, you don't have to make any changes to your camera.  2. What equipment will we use to take this type of image? You need a tripod, and a HDR photo-blending software to take the picture and combine them together at the end for an HDR effect. 3. What is the reason someone might take an HDR image? Someone might take an HDR image to enhance the beauty the picture captures. Sometimes the camera exposures and shadows aren't captured through the lens so you can enhance it by using HDR. 4. What can we expect to happen with the images once we merge them together, what will we see that we might not have seen with just one photo? We will be able to see the difference in the colors in the sky and shadows and the brightness of some pictures will be brighter.
