Blue is Green

Photo by Carl Canary, 6th Period
I took this photo using a tripod and about a three or four second shutter speed. I was merely trying to create lines from the light off of cars (an over used technique) and it turned out to look a lot lighter than I had anticipated. And the green light from the stop light turned blue. I like the photo because the tripod stayed perfectly still and the picture is much more crisp than I had anticipated.

Lonely Leaf

Photo by Brad Bardsley, 5th Period
I took this picture out in my back yard during the afternoon. Due to the cold weather we've been having you can still see the dew on the grass surrounding my subject. The dew is very vividly displayed in the background of the picture courtesy of the beautiful sunshine the day I took this. I personally enjoy the detail on the leaf I was able to capture with a tight focus on the middle of the leaf. I mostly enjoy the colros in this picture, it makes me happy!

You're looking at a fountain. It's not an outdoor fountain, it's a fountain that sits on a shelf. It's like a volcano erupting with a ball on top. The water is pushing up on the ball causing it to spin. If you look closely you will see the water on the left and the ball spinning more on the right. If you get what I mean.

Fishing Trip

This lake picture is of Lake Kapowison. I woke up early morning and went fishing, so naturally I brought a camera. What I like most about this picture is the intense fog and how the island looks like it is floating in air.

Blow All The Candles Out, Make A Wish But Not Aloud

Photo by Chelsea Heinzman
This is a picture that I did for my lines, textures, and patterns assignment, this picture was for the patterns section. To get this I lit several candles, turned out the lights but used a red light to make them appear red. I focused on the center candles, the shutter speed was fairly high. I like this picture because it is calming, I love the colors, and I like fire. I got what I wanted accomplished, which was a pattern made from things I enjoy and makes people think ( I hope ).

Puyallup Sunset

Photo by Landon Cross, 6th Period
I took this picture off of my roof. I was just messing around with the camera trying to figure out how to work it. I thought it was a cool picture because of how the clouds were in the sky and the color of the sky.

Luminous

Photo by Caitie McKenzie, 6th period
I was climbing an old piece of the Oregon Trail over Mt. Hood. You had to cross this old highway that hadn’t been used in forever, so there were trees and shrubs growing out of the concrete. The majority of the trees were pine, but there were some deciduous mixed in, and the ground was littered in these bright gold leaves. I liked this one because it was by itself and the sun was glowing on it at a really cool angle. I tried looking straight down on it but you didn’t get the full effect of the light. The picture was taken from the ground and I just liked how the leaf appeared to be glowing inside out.

Electric Highway

Photo by Cory Burkhead, 5th Period
While exploring Wildwood Park searching for elements of composition photos, I came across this telephone pole. The subtle colors such as the browns and whites of the wood against the blue sky, combined with the gentle curves in the lower wires and light pole immediatly caught my eye. I really enjoy this photo because it combines a different perspective of lines with the brightness of a fall day.

Stairway to Heaven

Photo by Amanda Massey, 6th Period
I took this picture for my elements of composition assignment. I was walking in the woods at Manorwood and I saw this tree house. I looked at the ladder and thought that it would be a cool picture to take. Taking this picture wasn't very easy, I was on a slight hill and had to make sure not to move or fall into a hole or something
