4th Quarter-4th Chunk Transportation

The first image was taken when we went on a day trip to a cost city. This image was taken in the port where there were hundreds of boats. I really liked this image because it was taken from above and it has the reflection of the boat in the water. The second image is of a women on a bike riding into the square of the Cathedral. I really liked this image because I was standing on the steps of the cathedral and the background is a very pretty landscape. I like how the mountains are in the background, it makes the women look really small compared to the rest of the city.

4th Quarter-3rd Chunk Architecture

The first image was taken in a cafe in Spain. The cafe was like a cave that you had to go down steps to a basement to enter. The image is of the staircase celling. I really like all of the carvings that were on the celling. These carving had funny sayings, names and other words that I believed gave the cafe some character. The second image is of the Cathedral at night. I took this image after dropping my sister off at her apartment while walking back to the hotel. I really liked this image because it has really cooling lighting. I thought it showed the city in a different way.

4th Quarter Project -2nd Chunk Foods

Both of these images are posted for the 4th Quarter project 2nd chunk-Food. I took both of these images when I was in Spain for spring break this year. I especially liked the image of the coca light, coke napkin holder and the glass because it summed up my entire trip. Each day we would go do some sight seeing, shopping or walking around and around 2-4 pm each day we would stop for something to eat and drink. My dad and sister would always get coca light. I just liked how an American company is all over Spain. The second image is of a store front in Santiago De Compestela that was a vegetable and fruit store. Every restaurant or store that sold fruit had the food on display in the windows or in the door frames. I really liked this because it showed you what they had before going in. I also liked this image because it had multiple different colors.

4th Quarter Project -1st Chunk Landscapes

These images are posted for the 4th Quarter Project 1st chunk. This chunk is the landscape category. I chose this first image because it includes multiple aspects of landscapes as a whole. I liked how the statue is in the middle of the image and how there is a contrast with the white statue and the blue sky with some clouds. Also the flowers in the bottom of the image give the image a pop of color. The second image is for the seascapes aspect of the category. I like how my sister is walking with an umbrella on the beach because it is a contrast because usually you go to the beach when it is sunny but on that day it was raining in the morning. Also having a person in the frame gives reference to how big the ocean is and the size of the beach where the image was taken. I liked this category because it was easy to do on spring break because I was in a different area where there were many different types of landscapes.

3rd Quarter Project- 6th Chunk Machines

These images are posted for the last chunk of the 3rd quarter project. I saved the Machine category for the last chunk! The first image is of a hand powered machine. I chose to take pictures of my friend Eva swimming. She is a hand powered machine because we swim for Machine Aquatics and to swim you use your hands and body to move forward. I thought it was a funny and ironic concept and chose to use this image for the project. In the image you can see the effort she is using to move down the pool by the water splashing all around. The second image is for the construction category. I like this image because there is a lot in the image but by looking at it you can determine that it is a construction sight. There are multiple layers to the image. The first is the cone in the left quadrant of the image; then there is the fence and then there is all of the construction equipment. I like the different layers because it draws the eye through the image.

3rd Quarter Project- 5rd People

Both of these images are posted for the 5th chunk of the 3rd quarter project. The first image is of my friend Kaitlin and it was taken while we were at Junior Nationals in Orlando, Florida. I really like this picture because of the sharp contrast in colors of the yellow/orange wall and her bright green shirt. Also the shadow of her body on the wall gives the image a nice visual affect and the hand reaching out of the window sparks a few questions when looking at the image. The second image is of a guy who was about to compete in the 50 meter butterfly at finals of Junior Nationals. I really like this image because I took it on complete accident and it came out really nicely. I like how I am looking down on him and the image is not at eye level. Also, I like the contrast with his black suit and the blue water, it makes the water pop really well. In addition, I like how you can see how focused he is even thought you can not see his face. You know that he is about to get on the block and sprint down the pool because of his body language.

3rd Quarter Project- 4rd Chunk Lighting

The first image that is posted for this project is the of Maroon Five at a concert. The lighting at concerts is very dramatic. I used this image for the sub category of back lighting because the lighting emphasized their profiles on stage.The second image posted is of the light house and was used for the sub category of sunsets. I really like the blue in the background of the light house. This image is very pretty and represents sunsets well.
