As the end of the school year approaches, we were challenged with taking a picture of an exit, so I decided to take a picture of an exit I passed though for 7 years of my life. Though the straight was covered with ivy when I was in the school, most of it had been cut away. Despite that, I […]
Geometry
For this prompt I used the geometry of the benches at my elementary school. I found it interesting because they were at different heights and had slightly different textures, they looked like they were different shades even though they were all made out of the same metal.
Tell a Lie
The “tell a lie” prompt was hard at first. I was thinking, the camera is the one thing that doesn’t tell a lie, but after doing some research I realized that it is actually pretty easy to lie with a camera.

I now understand why ever cartoon depicting a bird’s nest always has three eggs, because it tends to look better and feel more balanced. To […]
Aging
The prompt for this photo was to show aging. It just so happens that it was my grandmother’s birthday, so I decided to take a photo while we were cutting the cake.
Golden Hour
For this photo, we had to take a picture during “golden hour” so I decided to wake up early and get in this cool photo of a flower.
