I’m making a switch

I decided to switch out two photographs of the six I chose for my lighting class. Instead of Buddy and the Christmas tree photo, I went back to  my Intro to Digital Photography class and pulled one photo each from Project 3 (Narrative) and my final project, Day and Night (you can see the series here).  The first is my husband and me (Project 3), and the second is the Tracy Clark hydroelectric power station on I-80 (Final Project).

Six Photographs

I’m starting a new photography class at UNR on Tuesday. This is the Photographic Lighting class and I’m really looking forward to it. The instructor sent us an email today telling us to bring six of our best photographs to our first session to share with the class. Here is what I’ve chosen.  Regular readers will recognize that four of them come from my 365 project.

Day 20 – Broken Bird

I slipped out to the duck pond by NV Energy again today. Amidst all the geese, ducks and coots, this little guy caught my eye.  Hopping along on one leg, he didn’t appear to feel the least bit sorry for himself, but he just broke my heart.  I converted the shot to black and white. It seemed fitting.

Day 13

Underwater at the duck pond. This is my 365 photo.

And I wanted to put this one up too. I took this photo of my husband at dinner tonight. The light was low and reddish, so I processed in black and white.

Day 10

My first attempt at photographing my work place’s pedestrian security gate. It’s got all kinds of curves and heavy-duty plexiglass. I processed this one in black and white because I didn’t want anything to distract from the curves and lines. Likely I will return to this subject again.
