Brossi_Turtle

i took this picture sunday afternoon of the turtle i painted at plaster fun time. the lights in the room were on and i used flash.

Condon_Bus

This is one of the pictures that I used for the color assignment. It is one of the Marian buses near the back of the school and I took this one day after school in the afternoon. I really like how the M looks so large and then the letters following it look smaller and smaller.

McGrath_Nail Polishes

I took this picture a few weeks ago in my living room. Someone had life a few of the nail polishes out, and I thought it would work well for the color project. Although I didn't use the photo for that assignment, I still really like this picture. I used only the light from the near by lamp and no flash.

Reichart_ Ferris wheel

This is a picture of a ferris wheel that I went on over the summer in Seattle, Washington.  It is 200 feet high and the middle of the day so the sun was high  and bright in the sky.  I like the angle of how I took the picture  and how the top of the ride is blocking the sun so there's no glare.  

Cha_Green Line

I took this picture from Copley station when I was waiting for outbound Green Line toward Riverside. I took this picture in the mode, Black and White. The effect seems to make the picture more exotic. I like this picture most of all beside the fact that reflection on the sign board blurred the word, "Green."

Garner_Snowboarding Without Snow

I took this picture yesterday when my brother decided to practice snowboard tricks in our backyard. I took it mid day, with him facing the sun. Using the sports setting to get a faster shutter speed I was able to capture him mid air.

Bubello_Dog

I took this photo in my house without flash. I really like this photo because of the silhouette of my dog's face and that you can't see the details of his face. I really like how the lighting in this photo caused that kind of affect.

Namubiru_Nail Polish

i took this picture with no flash, only indirect sunlight. what i like mmost about the picture is the color blue of the nail polish. the first picture was cropped into the second one so that the background wouldn't be so distracting.

Bache_Eggs

I took this photo in my kitchen when I was helping my mom put the groceries away. I was about to put the eggs in the fridge but when the sun hit them through the window I thought it would make for a good picture. I like the shadows and the different shades of the eggs. One thing I wish that was different would be to have the center white egg not be as over exposed as it is in the image.

Duchaney_Miniature Buildings

I took this with my Canon PowerShot SX110IS on macro setting using only available light coming in from the window. This is my mom's little collection of little landmarks that we've visited: Mount Vernon, Giverny, Monticello, a Martha's Vineyard gingerbread house, and the Nubble Lighthouse. At first I was disappointed that I could not give the photo a white background without losing the dramatic shadows, but then I grew to like the backdrop of the trees outside my window. The fact that there are no leaves makes the white surface resemble snow. The photo is a little bright on the right next to Mount Vernon, and I would have liked to have been able to show a little more detail of the miniatures in the back, but I do like the depth that the blurriness shows.

Dilbarian_ Hanging Lantern



I took this picture at my grandparent house while they were packing and geting ready to move.  i like how the light casts a shadow onto the back of the wall.  i also like how the lantern looks really old. 

Palencia_sunset

I took this photograph at around 4pm two days ago. It amazed me how red the sky looked after looking so blue 5 minutes ago.  I like how you can see the outline of several different trees. The sky is a mix of pink, red and yellow.

Cha_Harvard Gate

I took this photo from the Harvard which is located beside the statue of John Harvard. I was trying to take photo from the bottom of the door so that I can take whole door in the picture.

Claxton_ Baby Jeffry

i took this pic of the baby my mom baby sits.  his name is jeffry. it was no flash  with some sun.  ISINT HE SO CUTE :P

Reichart_Squirrel

This is a picture of a squirrel in the Boston Common.  There weren't many clouds out, but it was in the late afternoon so the sun was going down slowly.

Brossi_City

I took this photo when I went to Nashville, Tennessee.  I was on a bridge overlooking the water.  I took this with natural light 

Condon_Sister

I took this picture about a week ago. Up close, you see part of a tree that is focused up, but in the background is my sister Erin. She is leaning on another tree, but is blurred out in the background. I like this picture because it shows the detail of the bark on the tree but just the blurred effect of Erin.

Flavia_Beni The Dog

I took a picture of my dog, Beni. I called his name and he looked straight at me. In this picture I like how he is the focused subject of the whole picture. I also like how the background is blurry. I thought that the arm of the chair was distracting so I cropped it out, as shown in the second picture.

Fair_Eggs

This was one photo that I used for the "Let Me Tell You About_____" project. I like how there is a limited amount of colors. Also, I think the cross looks nice against the eggs and I like the way the greens plants surronds the bowl. This was taken with a Sony Bloggie on the portrait setting. It was a partly sunny day. I used no flash. If I could retake this photo I would center the bowl more so it would not be cut off at the top.

Namubiru_Lake

I took this picture with no flash, only afternoon light at the lake by the school. The thin i like most about it is the reflection of the water.

mcgrath_cross walk

I took this picture right outside of Marian a couple weeks ago. It was a sunny day and I didn't use flash. I dont like the leaves in the buttom corner but there was no way to crop them out without making the rest of the picture look strange.

Duchaney_Frog...or Toad

I took this with my Canon PowerShot SX110IS on macro setting using only natural light. I found this little guy when I was raking leaves. This was the last photo that I was able to take of him before he moved and hid his head under some grass, and it was also the only photo that I took at this head-on angle. I like how he is well in focus, and I like how his red/brown color matches that of the leaves. I think the yellowish spot at the top left corner is a little distracting, and I wish the colors were a little brighter.

Bache_License Plate

 

I took this photo after school on Wednesday afternoon. I thought the license plate was funny so I decided  to take a photo of it. My camera was set on the macro setting so I could get the details of the license plate in crisp focus. The one thing that I wanted to change was eliminating the distraction in the top right corner of the image. I ended up croping the distraction out, after trying to edit it for a while and resulting in a very noticible, terribly edited photo. I intend on improving in that area.
