Tilt Shift

Tilt Shift Probably wasn't my strongest, it was very difficult for me to find high enough points with something to focus on in my middle ground.

A look down 65th, or what I like to call it, The Roller Coaster Hill.

Down at Lake Billy Chinook, a view of one of the two bridges that are down the steep canyon.

Down a Road, (not sure what the name is) where the cars scurry away from the intersection.

Another look down at the marina at Lake Billy Chinook. The boat isn't out yet. :(

At the top of Round Butte in Central Oregon. A view of the deserty farm land.

Street Photography

I wasn't sure about Street Photography, but after I did it, I got the pleasure at laughing at how oblivious people are when they are in Saturday Market. I was able to get close enough to get good shots. I was targeting movement or expression.

Just following a garbage man down the street, he looked very out of it.

Taking a picture of a person who is also taking a picture of an old couple... but they didn't know i was taking a picture of their picture.

A group of students were walking around Saturday Market, and so I decided to follow them to the food court. Nom Nom Nom.

I was scared that girl saw me take the picture. She ran up a small staircase and jumped into this person's arms. Then I shot them. With my camera.

That dog... was HUGE.

Kid walking out of Voodoo Donuts!

Laughing at something that wasn't me.

Mosaic

I had fun putting this project together. The first one was kind of hard, but after I did the second one, it started getting easier. I liked how different this project was and it made me think differently through perspective.

My lovey model, Shaelyn Rogers, posed this picture.

Architecture

My first impression of this project was simple. I didn't find a lot of difficulties with the achitecture. I like all the pictures I took. Not a bad start for the first project this year.

A nice shot of the archway to the Convention Center.

Camping at Cottage Grove

Jessica Cox and I went on some crazy adventures while we were camping at Cottage Grove. We took our canoe everywhere we went and basically we went along with the lake and the rivers that connected to them. With or without the pictures, the fantastic memories of taking the pictures and seeing the sight was memorable enough.

 This would be a picture of me kissing a flower. Photo Credit to Jessica.

We found some tall trees in one of the campsites and took a multiple exposer of us looking up at each other.

Another mulitple exposer, one that took forever to set up the right way. The set up in this picture was probably one of the most complex ones out of all the pictures we took. But it turned out really good.

Jessica during the sunset. We were sitting in the canoe, writing, and then the beautiful distracted me.

Canoes are our best friends. They are able to take us to the most amazing places ever when you least expect it.

 

Another canoe picture with me in a muliple exposer.

Jessica displaying her beauty to my camera. She's standing in the water while I'm standing on the dock looking down at her.

Jessica in a multiple exposer. One of her looking staight at the camera and the other is her upside down leaning against a tree.

A fun muliple exposer taken by Jessica. It was my idea to do something silly like "looking for myself".

This picture was supposed to turn out a little different than we expected, but it still turned out pretty good. Jessica on the left and the beautiful creek in the background. This location was our favorite.

I wanted to get a picture of a drangon fly so bad when I was on this trip, but I knew I would be too slow to take a picture of one in the air. But Jessica was able to spot one out that was landed in the grass right next to our tent. What luck!

Self Portrait

This is my Self Portrait Final. This picture was taken of me while the camera was up in the tree.

I loved this project. It was a little challenging to get all the angling correct, but I love all my pictures. I never had any problems with running out of ideas for this project.

This is probably my favorite picture. I am sitting in my room with a lamp angled under me against a white wall.

This picture makes me smile. I love the way the eyes stand out from the flares of my hair.

There isn't a specific reason why my face says 3:00. But it was my messiest picture out of all of them.

This one printed a little too dark so it is hard to see me on the swing set. But I still enjoy this picture a lot.

I had a lot of fun with this picture, though it took me some practice before I could get the design on my eye correct.
