Assignment#28: "Abstraction to Express Emotion"

Image
Pity is a feeling of sorrow for someone else's pain. I chose to do this photo because most of the photo has darker grass, which represents the person who is going through the pain. The little patch of light is the person who is feeling the pity for the other person and is trying to brighten up their day and mood.

Assignment#26: "More MAD Photography"

Image
For this assignment, I decided to chose a tutorial on the photographs of flowers. Flowers are all around us, but are usually always photographed one or two ways. The tutorial I clicked on, showed different ways on how to take pictures of flowers. I like this tutorial because it got me to look at flowers, and plants in general, in different ways, especially up close. The first two photographs i took were up close of a plant, and they show the detail that was in these plants. The last one was taken of a tulip and I really liked how the flower looked from that angle. I really like how the outcome turned out on all of these photos.

Assignment#24: "TED"

During the TED talk, I was shown many photos which helped to answer the question, "How does photography connect us?" During the talk, David Griffin showed photos from around the world and then explain them and how they were taken. Photos of the animals in the wild had to be taken without the photographer, so that the photos would show the animals in their environment. The photos that showed the poverty in a city, made it easy to see the pain that went along with living there. The houses and buildings were all boards, instead of concrete. These photos showed me how lucky I am to be living here, and how I should donate more so that hopefully, one day, they may be able to live how I do. Photography is a great way to show photos of other places to people that don't travel that far. These photos help to show the problems that are going on in different countries. They are then able to see how real something as big as poverty, or killing elephants for their tusks, can be. Peop...

Assignment#22: "Triptych"

Image
For this assignment, I want to show a student who is stressing out. In the first photo, it will be the student doing their homework. The second photo will show a dog coming over to them. And the last photo will be the dog cheering up the student. I want to do this as my triptych because it's easy to be stressed and overwhelmed with school and other things. But from what I've seen, dogs can easily help relieve stress and overall make people happier, even when they are doing something as hard as homework.
