Photo Class- Assignment 8

The second assignment for my photo class this week was cowboy hats. Fortunately for me my roommates boyfriend brought over a few of his hats. It was kind of fun to take pictures of them and I think I ended up with a couple that I like. I also learned how to do borders in photoshop that are kind of fun.

The first assignment for my photo class this week was buildings at night. I decided to take picture of some of the downtown buildings when I was down there after the baseball game the other night. I think they turned out okay... not my favorite, but okay.

Photo Class week 4

Class went really well tonight. My teacher was really happy with all of the pictures I took at the Japanese Friendship Garden on Saturday. He even told me that he was really impressed with how I was very focused and direct about what I was taking pictures of. He told me that some people just take tons of pictures, but that I seemed to be a little more deliberate. It was a big compliment, and it's always nice to hear that your pictures are liked. He also liked my fruit ones. I loved seeing what other people did and I wish sometimes that I could take pictures and show you some of them. It's amazing how creative some people are. Anyways I got my last two assignments this week. I can't believe it, but our last class is next week. Well the assignments are:

• Buildings at night
  
• Cowboy hat
  

I think both of these will stretch me a little, but that's the point of taking the class.

Photo Class- Assignment 6

The second assignment for my photo class this week was flowing water. Part of that assignment was also to have pictures from the Japanese Friendship Garden in Phoenix. We had a 'fieldtrip' there Saturday morning. The Japanese Friendship Garden is in downtown Phoenix and is really kind of cool. It's a peaceful place in the middle of the city. I really like some of the pictures that I ended up with.

The first assignment that I did for my photo class this week was fruit. It was an interesting one, but I was super excited about it because of all the bright colors, but not honestly sure who to make it interesting. I think I like the second shot better, but I guess that's why you try new things.

Photo Class week 3

Class tonight went pretty well. We had the opportunity to critique someone else's pictures tonight. It's a little difficult to tell someone else how to take pictures, since really to me a picture is captured in the eye of the person who takes it. It is interesting just to see other people's opinions. Anyways I got two more assignments for this next week, they are:

• Flowing water
  
• Fruit
  

We'll see how that goes this week.

Photo Class- Assignment 4

The second assignment for my photo class this week was horses. I wasn't really sure about this assignment either. The horses that lived across the street from us were sold recently. So I had to be a little more creative. Maybe I pulled it off. This wasn't my favorite assignment but I guess that's one way this is stretching me.
