This photo was taken in half moon bay on a walk that I did. I didn’t take it on a film camera, but used my fujifilm X-S20 to imitate a film camera, and it turned out really nicely, this is one of my favorite photos.

This photo was taken on new years, I used a long exposure to capture the explosion of the firework, held on a tripod. It looks really cool and I have tons of photos like these from different events throughout the years.

This was taken at a school scrimmage for my lacrosse team at LAHS, I really like how the bars in the helmet contrast with the background to create a true silhouette.

I took this photo in Palo Alto, and I really like how the colors look in this photo. The way the green and the blue and the red blends in, it feels like something from a 90’s film.

I took this photo in San Francisco, it was really hot and sunny and also pretty humid deep in San Francisco’s China Town. The red colors were vibrant and contrasting to the dull colors of the majority of San Francisco. I really like how the composition turned out. It may be bias but I can see the color despite the photo being black and white, this is really cool to me because its like those color assimilation grid illusion’s.

I took this photo in LA with my dad, this photo reminds me of my two brothers whom I used to play with on the beaches in Australia. This is exactly what we would do, dig holes and rivers to fill up our holes with water.

I took this photo in Monterey which reminded me of my culture in Australia as this is a bird that looks common to a lot of birds found in Australia. The water reflecting is a childhood memory of mine, and I can connect it with my culture as an Australian.

I took this photo in my backyard, my family recently moved house and the owners of the house we are renting are landscapers and have really beautiful plants and the garden is very green and I wanted to take a photo of this plant before the owners removed it because it was overgrowing.

I took this photo in Santa Cruz in the same place I took the photo for my Serenity blog. I came back to the same place with my family because there is a restaurant and it was the only place open, and I noticed someone coming back with a net full of fish on a little boat with his dog, it was really cool to see something like this because it was something straight out of a movie with the dog perched on the front of the boat. I wish I was a bit higher up because the dogs head is cut off a bit because it blends into the background instead of being isolated in the reflections of the water.

I took this photo for one of my assignments but also I wanted to use the photo blog idea to implement some leading shadows into my photo, I think I did a pretty good job at keeping the lower portion of the shadow sharp but I should have used a brighter light.
