it's an all night party that we're getting into
The camera has an excellent way of capturing emotion, but it can also fake emotion. I chose to portray a lie that the camera can tell by exaggerating the emotion of sadness. In filmmaking, fake tears are often used to depict sadness. I chose to mimic that through photography.
Serenity means something different for everyone. To me, environment is a huge part of serenity. This picture of Cafe Du Nord features calming lighting and pleasant objects. Since music also has a large effect on my mood, I thought to include instruments in this image, as they are serene to me.
As the sun was about to set, I took this picture capturing the heat of a hacky sack tournament. Shooting photography at golden hour heightens the color properties of oranges and blues, making for a “glowier” feel.
With the water photo blog assignment, I challenged myself with making a very mundane setting look more beautiful. I think that the composition of this photograph adds intrigue and the color palette cultivates a more appealing image.
I chose to shoot my comparative white balance photo blog with heavily-vibrant subjects. I felt that the colors of the shoes, the books, and the cassettes helped to establish a more intense contrast in white balance.
As I was on a relaxing stroll, I was intrigued by something I saw amidst the tall grass. Dangling there, was a children’s hat. The item seemed so out of place, the juxtaposition between weight and mass inspiring me to capture it for a photo blog.
This assignment was to take a photograph that captured my current “mood.” At present, I feel that there’s a lot to be discovered (it being the beginning of the school year). To me, this picture represents that feeling of preparing for the uncertain; not knowing what’s to come, but embracing it. This picture was taken at Natural Bridges Beach, with the intention of relaying a sense of possibility and curiosity.
