I didn't realize before this project that the camera
could capture light as it traveled. I learned from this project that you have to be quick when moving the light source if you want a better outcome. You have to be quick, but you also have to be cautious in what directions you are moving it. The photo above is a heart with swirls surrounding it. The bottom photo is a cyclone to represent our school.

Color Project/Study

The color I chose to do this project was green. I learned that sometimes it takes more than one try to get the right photo. I also learned that it gets harder to find your color after the first 20 or so photos. It can also be hard to put focus on a smaller object and still have it take up most of the photo.

 Andy Goldsworthy

This picture is my own recreation of one of Andy Goldsworthy's many leaf based photographs. The original picture was used with more vine type plants than what I used here, but I think it still looks good. I like how there's more than one color of leaves in this photo.

Richard Avedon Style

These photos are recreations of Richard Avedon's Bob Dylan portrait. I like the black and white version of this photo better because I like how her hair almost matches the color of the trees. And because there's no color it's easy to focus on the model.

 Richard Avedon Style

These photos are recreations of Richard Avedon's Tom Stoppard portrait. I like the black and white version of this photo better. Again, black and white photos seem more powerful to me. These photos both say, to me, I'm cool and you best stay away from me because I'm tough. I think the black and white really assists in showing the strength and power of the photo.

Richard Avedon Style

These pictures are recreations of Richard Avedon's James Baldwin photo. I like the black and white version of this photo better because it seems more powerful. When I look at the pictures they feel sad, but the black and white help that feeling progress. That's why it's more powerful to me.

Gray Scale

The first picture, top left corner, is my white value picture. The photo is of a hanging light. The second picture, top middle, is my lightest gray value picture. The duct tape on the end is actually the focus value. The third picture, top right, is my lighter gray value picture. This photo was taken of the trash can. The fourth photo, middle left, is my light gray value. This photo is of a printer.  The fifth photo, middle middle left, is my dark gray value. This photo is of my friend's shoe. The sixth photo, middle middle right, is my darker gray value. This photo is of an electricity outlet. The seventh photo, middle right, is my darkest gray value. The focus point is a basketball trophy. The eighth photo, bottom left, is my light black value. This focus point is of my friend's pant leg. The ninth and final photo, bottom right, is my black value. The focus point is a painting on a door.
