Tell a Lie

This week’s photo challenge prompt was to “tell a lie” through a picture. To complete this prompt, I photographed my sister taking a photo of herself on her phone. It’s slightly hard to tell, but she has Snapchat open on her phone, and is open to where the filters are. I felt that through the …

Leading Lines – Food

For this week’s photo challenge, I took a close-up picture of a loaf of sourdough bread. I had taken this picture for my documentary project, and felt that it would fit the prompt of using leading lines with food nicely. Because of the shape of the design on the bread, viewers’ eyes are moved throughout …

Stranger

This week’s photo challenge prompt was to tell the story of a stranger through our photography. I had taken this photo of a person walking while I was in New York over Spring Break. Although I don’t know anything about the person pictures, it’s interesting to think about what their life might be like. I’ll …

Serenity

To represent this weeks photo challenge of “serenity”, I took this picture of light coming through the trees while I was in the woods on a trip. This was a very peaceful place, and I feel that this photo captures that essence quite well. The cool monochrome green color scheme lends itself nicely to feeling …

Rule of Odds

For the photo challenge this week, I had to incorporate the rule of odds into a photo. I chose to use one of the photos that I took for my Documentary Project that I am currently in the process of making. In this picture, there are three dough loaves. This number is pleasing on the …

Aging

The photo challenge this week was “aging”, and I thought that this photo that I’d taken during autumn captured that nicely. The bright colors of the leaves on the ground and in the trees represent that aging is all around us. I felt that plants represented this idea well, and this picture was very visually …

#NoFilter

For the photo challenge this week, we had to take a picture of anything we wanted to, but could not use any filters or presets to edit. This past week, I spent time in Los Angeles, and while my family was driving during sunset one evening, I took this picture. Even without any editing, the …

Negative Space

For this week’s photo challenge, I chose to use a picture I’d taken when I was at Fallen Leaf Lake, which is up near Tahoe. I used self-timer on my camera so I would be able to be in the picture with my friend. I really like the colors of the landscape at the lake, …

Shadow

The prompt this week had me photograph shadows in order to tell a story. When looking around for inspiration, I saw these bikes that were next to each other that cast a really interesting-looking showing onto the ground. I thought it was cool how different parts of the shadow had darker and lighter values due …

Anonymous

To represent the idea of anonymity, I took a picture of my sister in front of a computer screen. The internet is notoriously full of people hiding behind fake personas and pretending to be people they aren’t, so I felt that it would work well for the prompt. In the photo, you can’t see the …
