School

I love that in this picture you can see all of the flaws on the locker but it still has that essence of beauty. 
If you can't tell, I am really excited for Halloween. My favorite thing about this picture is that it looks so dark and ominous, but in reality it's so normal. What I mean is it's a school, I could hear the secretary talking on the phone as I took it there were still students around, but it looked so quiet.
Books stacked up is so pretty to me. I think because they are all different sizes and they really do have their own story. No pun intended.

Shadows

I love the shadows of the trees, they're just so intricate and tells a story. I am so excited for when the leaves fall off and all you can see is the structure of the trees. 

I like this picture because the only shadow is the lamppost and that makes you really focus on it. For this picture I wanted to make the color of the bricks stand out, this made the sky look a bit fake, but I like it.

The trees here look much lighter then the ones at the top of the page,because I added more contrast to this one than the other one, and I'm not sure which one I like better.

Colors


This week I wanted to experiment with colors and black and white. The picture above is the track, it feels sightly nostalgic and sad. I like it though.  
I really wanted the green of the grass to really stand out in this picture. I think that it stands out more where the sun hits it. This picture really reminds me of summer, because of the grass and the sun, but I really like it.

 All of these pictures have the same on the ground angle. And I like that angle because it feels like I'm more on the level of the object.

PHOTOS

So, I've been going to this school for over a year, and I've never heard of this little pond. I guess that's the point though, to see things you'd never usually go looking for. I love the leaves on this and I think it will look amazing when it starts getting colder and the leaves change color. I'll post a picture when that happens. 

There are bushes outside the Performing Arts Center that have these orange berries on them. I'm curious to know what they are. I also like this angle, it's upside down and I really like how the berries look. Anyway thanks for reading as always!

Things Unnoticed



 In everyday life, isn't it funny how you can walk past something a hundred times a day and still not notice that it's there. I think we should live life, escape the normal sometimes. 


                                                                                                                                                   
You've probably never stopped to look at a wall, most people don't, but maybe you're not looking at a wall. Maybe you're looking at a story. I put a black and white filter on this and lots of contrast so you can see all of the flaws in the wall. 
 
I like this because it could have had a lot of meaning to someone, or more likely was a joke a stupid high school kid thought was hilarious. Either way there's still that story that someone one day might be like, "hey remember when.." Might seem weird but I love little moments like that.
