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.

Photos

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. It always is. 

High school sucks, but it's also some of the best times. The best way to remember the good and the bad? Photos. It's a universal way to show what you're feeling. These pictures show good times in high school. The times we'll all look back on and say remember when... 

I used the editor on my iPhone to make the first two look nicer. I used Photoshop on the last one to sharpen things up, and bring some things out. Thanks for reading this. Hope you enjoyed.
