Photog Friday: Extraordinarily Ordinary

 since I've been learning to manually use Kam and I really didn't get an assigned photography project this week, I decided to come up with one on my own.

I decided to take pictures of ordinary things that people probably wouldn't think to look twice at. When photographed properly, they are still ordinary, but they become extraordinary.


These are pictures of a concrete wall that has a metal pipe running across the top. It had just stopped raining and mold and corrosion from the pipe were running down the wall. Don't know why it caught my eye, but it was really cool.


This was from a brick wall in the student lounge at school. For the most part, all of the other bricks are intact. This one brick is just chipping away and had this really cool discoloration to it.


This flower actually caught my eye because it was the only one there. It was just sitting pretty, nestled in some grass and leaves growing all over the place. I took this immediately after it stopped raining so it was really cool to get the detail of all the rain drops on the flower petals.

This was a fun project for me to work on mainly because I made it up myself so I didn't have any real rules. I just took pictures of whatever caught my eye. This day it just happened to be things that normally wouldn't catch someone's eye.

Photog Friday Update

Ok so I know I missed my Photog Friday post last week and I already know I'm going to miss it this week too.

I just started my photography class for my Photography and Graphic Design major and we start shooting photos on Monday, so I will possibly use those for Photog Friday next week.

I guess my purpose for Photog Friday has kinda changed, especially since I know what to expect with this photography class. My Photog Friday posts thus far have only featured my work, and I want to keep it that way. I will use any work I do in class to create my posts from now on and use it to gauge my progress and growth in the photography area.

So we'll see what gets posted next Friday.

Photog Fridays: Squirrels

So I walked to the park today to get some exercise and I saw this really cute squirrel. I couldn't help but take pictures.

OOPS!!

Ok so I just realized that I posted my Photog Friday post yesterday right after I created it, instead of saving it and letting it post today. Oh well. Better me posting early instead of late. 

I've been a day off all week anyway. Somebody pray for me!!

Introducing Photog Fridays- The Many Faces of Me

Ok so I said I wanted to add some type of photography element to my blog and I've been trying to figure out what to do. I know that in the coming weeks I want to do interviews with some of my favorite photographers and possibly showcase their work. As I get more into the photography field, I will definitely be showcasing my work.
