This week we were challenged to take a photo that focuses on one subject in the center of a frame. I was going on a walk with my friend and thought this area looked whimsical and wanderlust-y so I asked her to look up at the trees which might exhibit the idea of loneliness.

New Beginnings
This week, we were challenged to take a photo that captures the idea of “new beginnings” in honor of the new year. Holding onto your past is typically viewed as a bad thing, but I think it is important to accept it and use it to help you learn and move forward in order to…
Trash
This week we were challenged to capture something that resembled trash. This is a photo of the three trash cans I have to take out every Sunday and bring back in every Monday. Not only is this a picture of things that actually have trash in it, but I believe chores represent trash as well…
Balance
This week we were challenged to find something that created balance in a photo. This is a picture of the pathway leading up to my door at my house.

Leading Lines
This week we were challenged to take a picture of leading lines. These are my curtains. I thought it looked interesting because there are more obvious leading lines in perspective that take up the majority of the photo, but also more subtle ones in the pattern of the curtain up close.
Love Story
This week we were challenged to take a photo that captures the feeling of love. I typically spend Saturday nights with friends- listening to music, going on walks, eating good food, and talking. They’re my favorite part of the week and this specific Saturday night made me feel the love. I hadn’t spent a lot…
Weight or Mass
For this challenge, we needed to take a photo of something that feels heavy or light. I took a photo of my old pointe shoes because when you look at them and hold them they seem light, but as you wear them and dance in them they feel like they are a weight dragging you…
Symmetry Landscape
We were challenged to take a photo of a landscape using symmetry. This is a picture of a pathway in my backyard with stepping stones and pebbles.
