For my 24th birthday I was given tickets to the Michigan vs BGSU game on September 25th. Here are some of the pictures I took from my seat during the game.

Portrait
 |
| Luis Gloria, 49, stands on the company truck. Gloria has been employed at Geo Gradel Co. for 10 years. |
 |
| Luis Gloria, 49, of Oregon has been a Welder for 20 years. He is seen here welding a piece back together. Portraits were a little exciting to do. It actually felt as though I was finally in charge of the shot. I could have the subject pose, and not have to wait and wait for the right moment. I also was able to choose someone who did something interesting and join them during the days work. If I decided to be a photographer I do not think I would be interested in doing portraits all the time. I do enjoy the excitement of finding that spot news or waiting for that perfect moment, to catch the one of a kind shot. |

Ethical behavior is a system of moral principals that people deal with every day. Ethics is also a common problem, even in photojournalism.
Ethical Categories
Photojournalism has three different types of ethical categories. One is a Utilitarian. This category stays true to the statement "the greatest good, for the greatest number of people." Even though the photo may cause pain or anger for the subjects and their families, the Utilitarian would still publish it. The photo would bring reality to the rest of the public and would help to save more lives. The second category is the Absolutist. This category follows the same statement, but it has limitations. Absolutists' believe people have the right to privacy, such as the privacy to grief. The third category is the Golden Rule. This category would not publish anything that would offend the subjects or their families.
I think I would be a Utilitarian. I know how to take my emotion out of serious situations. I would want to help the majority of people, rather than keep one tragedy secret in order to save a family more pain. Personally, if I were the one experiencing the tragedy and I knew that publishing a sensitive photo would help more people, I would want it to be published.
It is important to be accurate when taking photos. Treat people with respect, no matter the situation. Do not pay or accept payment of any kind for photos. Do not stage a scene to capture a better photo or encourage the subjects to stage anything.
Photographers can shoot anywhere in public, though there are places where we need permission from everyone. A photographer cannot shoot in a classroom, inside a courtroom, a prison, a military base, or legislative chambers. There are also limitations when shooting in medical facilities, casinos, and malls, where permission should be granted.
These are some of the ethical principles our class has learned. A photographer must keep these in mind when shooting. Sometimes the ethic principles of photography is argued because of the truth a photo can hold and the pain it may endure.
