Tell A Lie

This week we were challenged to “tell a lie” through photography. I decided to use the idea that even though we all know media shows a limited perspective of something or someone, sometimes it feels like the whole picture. I used this fresh homemade bread as an example. Zoomed in, the bread looks great and …

Serenity

This week, we were challenged to think about what Serenity means to us and then capture it in a photo. As I was reflecting on my most peaceful time, I realized that most of them were in nature. Some of my most peaceful and calm times, especially when I was younger were in grass. I …

No Filter

This week, we were challenged to take a photo without any presets or filters. My mom has a virtual dance class, and every time, they would play “Intentions” by Justin Bieber and he would sing, “Picture perfect, you don’t need no filter,” and I would be reminded of the picture that I still had not …

A while ago, I had seem some awesome photography where people went into a dark room and used their flashlights and a really large shutter speed to make some captivating photos. I have been wanting to try this out for a long time, and I finally did …

I loved the symmetry (in both directions) and the pop …

Weight in an Image

This week, we were challenged to photograph something that had to do with weight. I chose to do this butterfly balloon because it is so light, that it floats above everything else. So light, in fact, that if you let it go, it will float away entirely. I loved the colors that were bright and …

Current Mood

Yesterday night, I debated if I should go on a walk with my family. I was stressed about a test coming up, but I knew I would study more efficiently if I went out. On the walk, I was dreading coming back home, because the air was so fresh and I was overwhelmed about my …
