Center Frame Portrait

My friend Abby sitting in some grass by the Stevens Creek Trail. This week we were challenged to create a center frame portrait that exhibits loneliness.

Ticket stubs from a good day in 2017. This week we were challenged to be inspired by trash. While this ticket stub may seem like trash and the movie we watched was trash, this day was the first day I hung out with one of my now, best friends.

Weight/Mass

This photo of balloons in the sky was taken last December in the Bahamas on my own DSLR. This week we were challenged to take a picture of something inspired by the concept of weight and mass.

Symmetry Landscape

A lamppost in my apartment complex. This week we were challenged to use symmetry in the landscape to create a new viewpoint. I took this picture because I thought the way the path diverged was an interesting form of symmetry and it balanced well with the lamppost.
