Tell a Lie

Photo of the sunset in Nassau, Bahamas. This week we were challenged to choose a photo that tells a lie" with the expression "the camera never lies" in mind. I chose this photo because in the original picture the moon wasn't nearly as bright and the sky was barely pink and mostly blue, but through the power of editing I was able to change the temperature and saturate the pink tones in the photo....

A photo outside my apartment after a rainstorm. This week we were challenged to photograph "serenity", and what that means to us and skies have always been something that truly brings me peace and makes me feel serene.

A card from the singing valentine I got in freshman year. This week we were challenged to take a photo inspired by the word anonymous. The first thing that came to mind with that word, was the time I got a singing valentine in freshman year with no name and I still don't know who it's from.

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.

A leaf floating aimlessly in my pool. We were challenged to take a photo that represented our mood or feelings and the feelings of this day were mostly isolation and loneliness. Sometimes we go through periods of time in which we feel this way and I saw this sole leaf floating by itself in this vast pool and felt compelled to relate it's position to my feelings.
