Starry Night in AF Canyon

     So last night at around midnight, Kali's dad took the both of us with her dog, up AF canyon. I had so much fun! We were able to get pretty far away from light pollution and the milky way had risen up in the sky. It looked a lot prettier than the photos we got, but we still got some pretty awesome photos. I'm really happy with how they turned out!

• What is the title of your Artwork?

Rocky Tower

• What location did you choose? Why?

My backyard porch because that is where I found the most rocks.

• What nature materials is it made out of?

Rocks.

• What is its approximate size? Why?

It is about 6 inches tall because that is the amount of rocks I was able to balance on top of each other before it falling over.

• Can people interact with it? If so, how? Please be very specific.

No one can interact with it, otherwise it would fall.

• How did you take the surrounding areas into consideration while creating this piece?

I built it up high so it would be easier to take photos of different angles.

• What message does it convey?

Balance

Portraits

     I tried to take environmental and candid shots. These were my five best because I liked the way they made me feel and I also loved the lighting in each of these.  I big success of the shoot was that everyone I was taking photos of was very happy because we were all having a good time at the beach together. Something that wasn't successful was trying to take photos of them in the water. They were moving around too fast and the photo didn't look good when I quickened the shutter speed.

Landscape Photography

     I chose these five photos as the best because I really liked the lighting. I chose this subject because I was on a walk and noticed how pretty the sky looked at that moment. I learned to not use a telephoto lens for landscape, otherwise, the photos with turn out very grainy.

    

Macro Photography

     For this assignment I chose the first option: choose a subject you know intimately. I chose my ukulele because I have used it many times and I know each and every part of it very well. I also knew that the texture would be really cool. I have two macro lenses: 10x and 15x. I used them both for this assignment. Macro photography is one of my favorites because there is a big variety of things you can shoot and each photo seems to be very interesting.

Before

After

     I chose this photograph because I really liked the contrast of colors. There are a lot of dark parts and a lot of light parts making it easier to distinguish each box.  This project took a lot of time and patience, but once I figured it out, I was very happy with the result.
