Cruisin'

Since it has gotten so cold outside, I thought I would share some of my favorite pictures from my cruise to the warm Bahamas:

Guitar Hero

I had some fun with the self-timer and guitar hero, perhaps too much fun:

The Unseen

Have you ever bothered to look above or below you as you make your way through the Pryz?? I bet that we walk through it about 4 times a day and never even realize what is going on around us:

One Shot: Part 2

So here is the photo I took for my one shot. After taking it, I realized that the light post behind it is kind of distracting and that I should have shot so that the cross blocked it. Also, shooting with the sunlight right in the center faded out the color on most of the picture. I chose to desaturate the picture and make it B&W because I think that it gives the cross more impact



Because I really enjoyed this subject, I took some addition shots. I bumped up both the aperture and the shutter speed so that I could fully capture the sunlight shining through the cross. I also chose to shoot directly into the sun instead of having the cross block it. I hope you like it!

One Shot

My subject for my one shot assignment is going to be the Lenten crosses that have been placed around campus. I want to find the most interesting point of view of these crosses using the sunlight.

Summer . . . in March?!

In the spirit of the warm weather, I thought I would share a photo I took of my new favorite frozen treat!

Accidental Light

So last week in class we learned about light and different types/uses of it. This picture is the first of many to come from my vacation this week. This photograph was meant to be of something else, but turned out as this. I had my camera set to auto and it set itself to a longer exposure, I moved the camera, it caught the light and this is what happened, pretty cool if you ask me.

Work in Progress

So for class we have to recreate artwork through photography, here is my attempt, but it still needs some work:

Spotlight on . . . . Pineapples!

Spongebob may live in one, but I chose to photograph them instead in preparation for my impending Caribbean voyage!
