You capture silence

This week’s You Capture challenge was SILENCE. So we went to a mountain and drove before sunset. We made it and it was beautiful. The grass is dried, the road is insanely narrow, I was holding on like I was in a roller coaster…but it was worth the view…pictures don’t do any justice. We saw [...]

ojos de brujo techari

Yesterday’s assignment was to re-create a CD album cover of anyone we wanted to. This was soooo hard!

Photo Documentary Series

This was perhaps the most difficult assignment for this class. Mostly because I had no clue where to start and what would be interesting. I was extremely frustrated. After all, I think I over complicated myself in the first place thinking about it, but I finally came through. I’m happy with it, but I have [...]

Yesterday’s assignment was to photograph a family member of friend and the objective was to represent loneliness with the use of shadows, light, and emotion through body language. I think by far, this was the most challenging assignment yet. I found yesterday out the assignment was due yesterday, so I quickly began sketching and writing [...]
