·     Reflection
     
         If I were to describe myself though these images, it honestly shows that I prepare and plan prior to what I plan to do but end up making mediocre choices. As result, I took last minute photos of my surroundings after my eye appointment. It also shows how seldom I leave the house unless needed to (such as school and in this case, an eye appointment). That was my only opportunity of going in a location that shows more interesting views compared to school or home. 

·       Although it was not my intent to take photos in this location, I just took photos of what looked pretty to me even if there's trash or something you see everyday- trees/water/grass. Nature's playground is here and I just tried to focus and capture the way the natural settings coexist to create or display different perspectives of people around. So for me, I was fascinated on a content level of how beautiful the river looked as it was kissed by the sun. And the land surrounding it just tones well and it's just literal natural beauty. Viewers may notice that the bright green leaves with tints of yellow shows that summer's leaving and autumn is here type feel. Also the city buildings and constructions is more synthetic and gives a modern-sleek look. It may show stability, more organized and evokes more of a left-type brain kinda visual


·       I never really thought of a favorite place that is local to me. The ones that pop up in my head is very cliche but my bedroom because it's just basically my comfort and power-up zone. I'm most content when I'm resting in bed especially after a long time of bad posture in small-cramped crowded rooms.

Also light is essential to HDR. If there was not sun..cloudy day it would pretty much just make the environment dull and low contrast. Times where it's evenings enhances shadows and dark shady areas along with light areas from hitting surfaces that faces the sun or source of light.

  1. Which picture goes with...
    Symmetrical balance: The water and sky


    Repetition / pattern: The door and wall.


    Different point of view / perspective: The pond and rocks.


    Asymmetrical balance: The building and the trees.


    Framing: The trees are framing the water and the side walk.


    Lines (leading, diagonal, horizontal, vertical): The sidewalk.



    Which photo has the best composition? Why?
    I think the the framing trees has the best composition, because the framing was very thought out. Your eyes were directed towards the body of water.

    Which photo would you hang on your wall? Why?
    I would hang the sky and water picture. The composition is really well done and thought out, the HDR aspect of it is beautiful. The sun shining and the reflection in the water is amazing.

    Which photo could use a little work? What needs done? (composition/lighting/cropping/camera angle/camera technique)
    Th wall and the door could use a little help. It is boring and not very well thought out with the composition. You could have taken a little more time in the planning that went into this photo. Maybe next time take the photo at a different angle where your perspective is though you're leaning against the wall.

    When looking at the entire set of images what do they say about the photographer? Can you determine anything about the person by looking at their photos? Do they tell a story or are they just a collection of images?
    Looking at these photos I can tell that you like taking photos of nature, things like water and trees. To me it seems as though you like to keep things with the natural look, you like to see them the way they are.
