Week 13 + Extra







This is my week 13 observation, as well as two other photos. I think I may have missed an observation in the past, so this is to make up. If I didn't, then here's some extra photos. :) The first one I took at night while driving. I had my camera set to a night setting, but apparently it only works if you keep the camera still. So the weird light effect is a result of that. I think it looks like a bunch of flamingoes crossing the road. The other is my fridge. I like how the reflection makes the scene look double. And the last one is a lighted fountain at night. I love how the light plays on the water, and how the fountain almost looks like fire.

Spider week 13


although i am terrified of spiders i got close enough to this one to capture it and the detail of his web. i really like how you can see the deck in the background unfocused and the spider is perfectly clear.

Solarized week 13


This is a picture of a design on a park bench. I solarized the picture in photoshop to give it a different type of look.

Diving Bell Pics

This is a picture of the shower curtains and towels hanging in my bathroom. The curtains make layers because of the transparency and the colors. The maroon color of the towel just gives it some "umph".














This is three water bottles and some dish soap lined up. The color blue that is made in the bottles is from the Dawn dish soap. I liked the waythe water and the bottles almost looked like a reflection, like mirrors.










This is the underneath of an old lawn chair. I liked the stitching and the pattern of the fabric. the way the pieces of fabric layered over eachother made it look like a weaving of some sort.

Week12


This picture is just a normal picture of my basement and i turned it negative. I really like how the dark and light colors switch places and made it look pretty cool.

Week 11/Diving bell



These are my three Diving Bell Pictures. One is through a cologne bottle, one is through another bottle, and one is a picture through a gross lava lamp. idk they seemed like they would be good at the time.

The first picture i took was through an empty bag of candy, it kind of gives the picture a blurry look. I took the second picture in the car today on my way back from Missouri, it is not a very clear picture.

Raindrops on Glass Wk 12


This is a picture of the raindrops on my car windshield. I like how it's focused on the raindrops, but because it's on glass, and there's traffic in the background, it really gives it a lot of depth. This week I went photo hunting and spent several hours driving around Wichita to get pictures. I think by the end of the evening I had over a hundred and fifty. It was really hard to pick which one, but I love rain, so I decided on this.

Divingbell Project







These are my three pictures for the divingbell project. This was actually a lot of fun to do, finding different things to look through. The first was taken through ginger ale, the second through some old wavy glass, and the last was through a bottle of olive oil.

Sugar Week 12

This is a picture i was taking for my photography 2 class. I was taking it and noticed the sugar and the way it poured. I liked the way the sugar is just flows over his had and over the pot.

divingbell project


i used reflections and looking through my screen door for these photos, the reflection of rain on the roof of my car, flipped upside down to give it an interesting view. a gazing ball, the type that usually are in the garden distorts pretty nicely. and through the screen you can see the tree in my front yard, but focus is on the screen.

Video Project




These are the pictures that I took for our video assignment. After some searching around the house I found a really neat way of taking pictures that distorts the object so much and yet I think makes it look like a wrinkled up canvas painting. The way that the criss cross hatching on the inside of the bag I used makes it look like some one just slapped this on a nice piece of canvas for all to see.

Week observation


This was one of my layered pictures that I didn't use but I liked the way the trees and landscape are distorted, but you can still tell what they are. I used bubble wrap to distort them, and i love how some areas are more out of focus than others. I also like the random splashes of blue from the sky.

Art Project











These are the pictures I took through something. I used bubble wrap, a plastic cup, windex bottle, and bottle of water wrapper.

My Nephew Week 3

I just gave my nephew a bath and his hair was a little wild. I couldn't stop laughing and obviously had to take a picture of this. I know how everyone thinks that there own family is always cute but I hope that others think that he as cute as I do because he's my little dude....lol

Super Kool Sky Week 4

I was driving on a dirt road to my Dads house when I looked up in the sky and noticed the rays of the sun coming through the clouds. It looked beautiful by itself but I changed it to negative and thought it looked even more beautiful so I took the picture and hoped that others would think the same.

Cereal bowl week 5

I was eating a bowl of cereal and noticed the rings from the light that reflect off of the side of the bowl and is shown on the milk. It makes a perfect circle and I thought that it was pretty neat so I took a picture.
