About Me

My photo
Photography has always fasinated me. From all the editing and affects you can do to the picture, to the thousands of ways you can creatively snap a photo, it's all been simply fasinating to me. When I was younger, I'd always sit on the computer for hours and search for different types of pictures on photobucket.com, and from what I've seen, I've always wondered what software they used to make those pictures so amazing and beautiful to look at. I've also imagined myself as being a photographer. I just would love to capture an image or scene that I saw and share it with the world through my lens. I currently have no photographers that are my favorite, but I bet I will find one throughout the course of this class. I am going to love to be able to use my creativity to the best of my ability and to share it with the class.

Homage to Mr. Robert Adams

 The way that I am taking photos is just by examining his photos. I've looked at a bunch of his photography that I found online and I found that by looking at his pictures, it's helped me to get an idea of what I should look for when I went on photo-shoots. For example- he consistently took pictures of withering trees or trees, so I tried to get pictures with trees. Another example is houses or buildings- they were simple to find, but I shot them at an angle for which is created depth in the picture- like he did with his photographs.
For my project on Paying Homage to my chosen photographer, I focused on five pictures of Robert's that were most interesting to me.

    This is a great collection, but the photo tagged "Rober Adam's photo #3" is actually Cindy Sherman. This is: Untitled Film Still #43. (That's her in the photo.) It's part of the MoMA's collection. I don't intend to be a jerk. Just thought you would want to know.

      One more thing: #5 is a still from a 1926 Buster Keaton film.
