Things

So this week i took photos of really random things that i found around. The first one is of a bedside table. I like it because i like the colors of the gold jewelry. I also like the weird different things that are on the table. A guinness cup, a framed picture, a jesus candle, and pills. I thought that it was an interesting assortment of things. The second picture is of a toilet and other weird things that i found in a junkyard. I thought that it looked interesting and ambiguous from an above level. Thats all for now!

Jared

So people do Halloween in different ways. This is one of my roomates who decided to draw all over his body as his costume. I choose to put one in color and one in black and white because i cant tell which way i like it better. the color in my bathroom is not very nice, so the black and white makes it look good. i like color one because i like his body language and i also like the black horizontal line going through the whole photo. i like the black and white one because you cant see his face or body or arm , but you can see them all in his reflection. also his face is very real and not posed. Thats all

Foilage

So this is the best time of the year for fall foilage. And everything around Worcester looks so good. These two pictures i took because the colors were so vibrant and the leaves looked so pretty. I like how in the first one the leaves are different colors and shades and are all overlapping each other. I think it gives the photo good dimension. I like the perspective of the second one because it draws your eyes from the pile of leaves into the brick corner. I just really like fall. Thats all

New England Fair's

Last weekend i went to King Richard's Reniassance Fair. One of the things i like about New England is that during the fall there are tons of fairs all over. I went there for the fair, but also for the food. I had heard rumors about turkey legs, but didnt believe it until i saw them. I like these two pictures as a pair. I think one without the other wouldnt be as good. It tells a story.. about turkey legs. Thats all.

Subway

So i went to New York this weekend, and realized that i love taking pictures in the subway. I think that it is so cool looking and there are a million different things you can take pictures of down there. Especially in New York, very interesting things can occur in the subway. I wish i had taken so many more, but here are a few.

People in Worcester

So i know that i didnt post last week (sorry frank). I was away for break and had no access to a computer. So this is the post that would have been for last week. Since i moved to Worcester i realized that there are very interesting people living here, you just have to look for them. I really like walking around Main South and Worcester and taking pictures of different people i dont know that i think are interesting. These two pictures are two very different people that i found in Main South that i felt i really had to have there picture. I love them both because i feel like you know something about them just from looking at their photo.

Annie

I took a whole series of these photos of my friend Annie. I took them from different angles, lighting, and distance. I like the closer one, but i also think that the sun on the brick it kind of cool looking. I realized that I really like body language in my photos. I like taking photos of different people and seeing their natural body language. The way people comfortably put their body. That's all.

Start on the Street

I took this picture at start on the street art festival. I know that Frank doesnt like that the other mans head is cut off, but i like it. I like that the man playing the drums is staring right into the camera, and you can see the money in the guitar case. I like this sort of street scene.

Body Language

I didnt really like many of my photos this week, so i had trouble choosing one to put up. This picture a little washed out looking, but i like the context of it. I love the body language of my friend. I think that you can tell just by her body language that she is a dancer. The way she so naturally positions her legs in such an elegant way, even when she is just relaxing, is very interesting and beautiful to me. I also kind of like that her head is cut off, because it makes you focus on the position of her body.

Family

Last week i went to the baby shower of my new baby cousin. My whole entire extended family was there, including my 99 year old grandmother. I am very close with my grandmother and think that she is a remarkable person. I am always trying to take pictures of her, but she will never let me. So at the shower i finally got a picture of her. i havent totally grasped how to edit my photos on my computer yet, but i just like this picture because it truly captures my grandmother.

Summer 2009

This summer i went to Colombia. I had just gotten my SLR digital camera, and i had never done digital before, so i was really excited to use it. The pictures that i posted are what i think are a good representation of the culture of Colombia, or at least the town that i stayed in. The first photo is of two men talking in the street. The second photo is of a man selling vegetables on the street. The last photo is of jars of candy that are sold in the market. All these photos are very typical Colombian.
