Randoms

These are a few random shots from the end of August that I have been meaning to edit.  My boyfriend, cousin, and I went to this old abandoned house and this awesome cliff back home.  I would put more up but I have a couple hundred and I can't decide!

Homework 5















  



I shot over a few different days.  I had trouble deciding on my finals so I added a bunch.  I shot on a rainy day, an overcast day, and a really sunny day.  I also played around when I was shooting the water fall shots.  I put my shutter on bulb and opened my aperture to f22 to get that smooth foggy effect.  I was really pleased to find that guitar player on the dock today.  I was having a weird day and wasn't feeling inspired to shoot.  When I heard him singing and playing my day turned around and I feel like I got some good shots!

Scanner as Camera...

I wasn't happy at all with my scanner as camera project.  I have been really distracted lately because of someone new in my life and I haven't been putting forth as much effort as I should be.  I do have this one image of my hands that I like because my bracelets and rings all have a special meaning to me.  I am going to re-do my scanner as camera over the weekend.

White Balance Tests















4x4 Project

The 4x4 Project was interesting because it is so true a lot can be told within such a small space.  I chose to shoot my bedroom area because it is such a small intimate area but there is so much going on at the same time.  I decide to do mostly close up abstract shots but I believe the viewer still can get a hint of what the images are.




Kitchen Project



I had fun doing this project.  At first I wasn't really sure how I was going to approach these pictures because the lighting in my kitchen is awful.  That day I bought this small little light bulb fixture for my closet and it actually ended up helping me add dimension to my images and improve the quality.

Scanner as Camera Class Favorites

I thought this was a great shot, I loved how strong the detail was in the hair and bobby pins and how you can just see the shadow of the face.

This series of shots was my absolute favorite.  It was really heart felt and the artists note made the images even more interesting than they already are.

Scanner as Camera

 I put up 4 because I couldn't decide which final one I liked the best.  I thought these four described parts of me.  One being my love of photography, two I am VERY big on equality, third I though the Buzz light year figure because it is kind of a humorous and yes I still love Disney, and finally the flower image I know isn't unique but I love the outdoors.
