Mood

Spider in large spiderweb. — Spider in Web

For this week’s photo blog, we were tasked to take a picture representing our current mood. For this prompt, I chose to take a picture of a spider in a web in my backyard. Recently, I’ve been feeling really overwhelmed by school and almost stuck like a bug in a web. Like a web, life has been feeling a little complicated and delicate. Taking this picture was interesting because I am pretty scared of spiders. Despite this, I’m proud of myself for taking the picture despite my fear. This also ties into how I’ve been feeling recently because despite how overwhelmed I am, I’m proud of myself for continuing to try.

Rule of Thirds – Motion

For this week’s photo blog, we were tasked to take a picture showing motion using the rule of thirds. For my picture, I took a photograph of a stream of water coming from a spigot. I wanted to capture the motion of the water. I used the rule of thirds in the positioning of the water and the pipe on the left side of the photograph.

Self-Portrait

For this week’s prompt, we were tasked to show who we are without showing our face. For my self-portrait, I chose to take a picture of my guitar. I’ve had this guitar since I was eleven and it still works! Music has always been something that helps me connect with people and something that I can use as an escape from reality. When I’ve been stressed out about school lately, I listen to music or pick up my guitar. Music has also shaped the way I see life and I’ve been able to see my personality evolve along with my music taste.
