Anthophobia

I took this photo of a sunflower I saw at the pumpkin patch. We were working on close ups at the time so I wanted to get in as close as possible but the plant was much taller than me so I could only get part of it. Despite my trouble, the picture turned out very nice.

Llama

I chose this photograph because I love animals and I like how it filled the frame. The animal was fairly far from me so I had to zoom in and try and focus. I like this photograph but I would do some things differently. For instance, I would have its whole head in it.

Got The Beat

I took this photo of my sister’s drum for the macro assignment. I like the angle of the drum and the depth of field with the background. I took it on the manual setting and the macro setting on my lens and used a tripod to get rid of camera shake. I wish a little bit more of the drum was in focus, but other than that I like this image. It was a challenge for me to take macro pictures because I’m used to photojournalism, so I really liked how this one turned out.

This picture was taken while doing the close up assignment. I was going around trying to find something to take a picture of and my cat kept following me so I got real close and snapped a picture of him. It turned out good I thought, and I am really surprised that he didn’t try to run away.

David Had No Title Either

This picture is of some flowers with trees and the blue sky in the back ground. I really like this picture a lot because I think it looks cool with the flowers in focus and the back ground kind of out of focus but in focus enough to tell what is there. The lighting in this picture is perfect with the sun out it really helped me pull everything together in the frame. The chose this frame because I love how the background looks with the blue sky and clouds.

Bre Didn't Have A Title

I took this picture while I was playing with my kitten. She was running around attacking the packing nuts so I threw some at her and started snapping pictures. I took about 100 pictures but I like this one the most because she’s in the box hiding from everything.

I took this picture at the Puyallup fair. I took this picture because it’s really bright and colorful, I thought it would make a pretty picture. It turned out pretty good. I wish the whole background would have been blue instead of the stage and the signs.

Ball Of Light

This is a photo of a ride at the Puyallup Fair called El Nino. I wanted to catch the way a person feels when they are on the ride in a single photo. To get this effect, I set my shutter speed to f/22 and my aperture to f/3.5. I was really happy with the result, since it accurately represents how it feels to experience this ride.

Lonely Shoes

I took this photo of my friend and her shoes. She was sitting on a table and I noticed writing on her shoes, her shoes were also a little bit worn and getting dirty so it just had a cool feel to it. In my head I thought it was a pretty cool idea to capture the writing and the condition the shoes were in. I had way to much room on the left side of the picture so I cropped out the stuff I did not want, so the picture would look a little more focused on the shoes and the writing on them.

Life's Good

I took this picture on my front porch. I guess you can say my mind was wondering as usual so I dropped a rock in a glass of water and the reaction became my inspiration. So I did it again this time with the correct shutter speed and perfect angle of light and correct aperture. If only life really looked this pleasant all the time.
