Aging

f5.37, 50mm,ISO 800,1/195

For this photo, we were told to take a picture of something aging. For me. how I interpreted this topic was my old sketchbooks vs my new one. Just looking at, you can tell how the pages on the right sketchbook have turned yellow with age and has not been touched or drawn in for a while- probably since 2018. While the other sketchbook on the left is paper white and in good condition. with much nicer and improved drawings inside.

Serenity

In this photo, we were supposed to take a picture of something that we thought was serine. And for me, I thought the moon along with a palm tree was quite peaceful. When I was taking this picture, there was barely anyone around and my neighborhood is actually a really quiet place, so it was really peaceful taking this picture.

Shadow

For this photo, we were supposed to capture a photo of shadows to tell a story. And when I saw this ring of bushes, I thought it would be fun to try and make a small story out of it. For what I see is a person standing and it looks like they were at a dead end in a maze and are just standing here. I wanted to the picture a vision of when the person steps to the dead end, it’s illuminated to show that the path the person was taking was the wrong way.

Golden Hour

f5.37, 50mm,ISO 800,1/195

For This photo blog, we were supposed to take a picture of Golden Hour. This was taken in Japan during the February break in Kyoto- the temple is called Kiyomizu-Dera. It’s an important Buddhist complex. I tried to make sure the sun was directly in the middle even when we were at a angle and I think It’s one of my favorite pictures because of the amazing landscape.

Eyes

In this photo, we were told to take a picture of eyes. And for this one, I took a picture of my cat’s eyes because I think they are really pretty. It was kind of a struggle to get him to stay still, but I still got it and I’m happy about it.b

Center Frame Portrait

f5.37, 50mm,ISO 800,1/195

For this photo blog, we had to take a photo of a center frame portrait. And while I was looking for things to take pictures of, I saw this large pine cone at the front of the house and I thought it would be cool to try and snap a photo of it. I had to get pretty close to it to make sure it was in focus as well as make sure the background could be blurred slightly. Though, it wasn’t perfect, it still draws attention to the pine cone rather than the ground around it.
