Best Photo (plus two)

-
Throughout my four years of photography experience, I have come to notice what specific things I like to shoot and don’t like to shoot. One of my favorite things to shoot is people. Especially when I capture a particular expression. It freezes that memory in time and makes it last forever. This is a picture of my cousins having a blast at my other cousin’s wedding. 


This is my best photo I have taken so far; it is a picture of my best friend Aimee. We are at school in
the “garden” area. I call this my “best” photo because its the first photo that made me realize what
photography was all about, which is capturing moments and freezing them in time. 


In my junior year of high school, we started to learn about double exposure photos to prepare us for the darkroom. As I was experimenting I found that I really like this technique and would love to practice more of it in the future.

Water play day is my favorite photography assignment that we do as a class because it combines my two favorite things, Fast Shutter Speeds and Playing in the water in 90 degree weather. This would be my third time participating in the water play day. When I was in photography 2 I was the model getting drenched in colored water, this time I was the photographer and the one throwing the water onto people. I got to pass 2nd period just to participate in another classes water play day and it was so amazing seeing all the creative ideas from each of the classes. If I could choose being the model or  photographer I would choose the model because they have the most fun getting all soaking wet plus they have a bunch of people taking cool pictures of them. Down below are some of my favorites that I shot from water play day 2018.

Now add a CD

    For this "Wierd Day" in class, I ended up in the back parking lot of the school on the hill. I did not follow the instructions of "throwing the disc and seeing where it ended up" that well because I wanted to look for something bright to match the iridescent tone of the disc. So I found the colorful bougainvillea trees. I actually like taking photos of lower vantage points because, for one, I get to sit and for two, the most interesting picture is of things you don't see every day.    The pink pictures were taken in the back parking lot of the school on the hill going upwards. The white flower was located on the left side of the cafeteria in the little square dirt patches. I like how all these photos give off a "dazed" feeling with the slight blur of the CD in the background. I mostly used the CD as a background for the main subject, which was the flowers. I didn't want anyone to know that I was using the disc. The purpose of this
