Escape ladder

I took this at Dean college, I liked the lines and color contrast. Natural light.

Misc.

i took this picture mid-day during our photography class. I really enjoy the coloring and the wat the colors look reflected in the mirror

Marian reflection in natural light. I like that neither picture was quite focused and you can see both images clearly (the outside was reflected off a picture on the wall)

stairs

I like the angle of the stairs and I took it without flash.

tree

I took this during late morning, with natural light while it was raining outside. I like how the raindrops on the window distorted the image a bit and the natural colors.

misc.

for the top photo, i adjusted the settings on my camera to achieve this faded, streaky look. my main focus was on the silhouette of the bird. the only editing done was a slight crop and darkening of the tones. the second photo is a shot of a forest when it was foggy out. my main focus was to break up the tree branches using the empty space behind the trees. i converted it to sepia.

Spring is on its way

Some of the first flowers to bloom inmy yard. All natural light. Macro settings

Auditorium

I tried to move the camera while I took these pictures so that I would get those streaks. It ended up working really well because it was so dark, so my camera (on auto) used a really long shutter speed.

Bubble Bath

Diamond

I took this photo for refletions, but it wasn't one one of the ones I passed in. I like how the light forms a diamond. I also like how the reflection the light on the left wall from the light on the wall in the back but also on the floor, so it's almost like a double reflection, I took this from the stairs, but a few stair down so it would close to ant's eye view. I think I should have cropped out the door on the right.

ice

this photo has not been minipulated. it was taken at an ice show. i like the contrast of this photo.

Baby and the Beast

This is a picture I took for the photographic scavenger hunt but you couldn't really see the patterned part so i didn't use it. I love the interaction between the baby and the dog and how the dog is so big in comparison to the kid.

Reflection Reject

This is a picture I took for the reflection assignment but didn't pass in. I like the way the cracks almost bend the picture, and I also like the trees against the sky a lot.

ribbon

I took this picture at a different angle to give it some variety

Urban Jungle

This picture was taken with natural light coming from a window next to me. I like how the plant and the pot really stand out against the metal background. The only thing I wish I could change is the light coming from the top left hand corner.

Reflections of Marian part2

I discarded these images for Reflections of Marian, but I do like how the light is hitting these otherwise unnattractive things to make them a little more interesting.

Reflections of Marian

I borrowed Mr. Costello's glasses for this shot. I like the lighting and how the reflection hits the glass and then bends around the frame.
