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

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.

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.

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

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

Inner Beauty

I chose this picture because I love taking pictures of flowers and this one is my absolute favorite! I love how the center of the flower is still in focus and you can see every detail of it, along with it looking good. I love the coloring of the picture and the way it turned out. I took many shots trying to accomplish this look and I finally captured the look I was going for.

The Thing

I was taking photos for my lines, textures, patterns and this was one of my favorites that i took. The speedometer is in focus and the windshield wiper clicker thing is out of focus making it a good depth of field shot.

Reflection Lake

This photo was taken at a lake called Reflection Lake. On a very clear morning when the water and sky stays still, the lake can reflect the mountain perfectly

Up Close and Personal

This is a picture of a flower that is in my backyard. I got really close to the flower using foot zoom. I didnt really have to do much with the camera except focusing. I like the photo because it makes the flower look bigger than it really was, also because the texture in the center of the flower and the lines from the petals really support eachother and at the same time contrast.

Sunset

I was taking pictures for my lines, textures, and patterns assignment and I decided to look harder than just the obvious lines, textures, and patterns. So I looked hard and when I saw the swings I saw all three. So I took many pictures and this one ended up being my favorite.
