Intro to Photography

Selfish: self-portraiture, explored!

Shifts of Eight: One image per word in an eight-word sentence (from any source). While trying to think of this, I happened to remember a quote from my 9th Grade English teacher, which was told to us every week for the entire year I had him: "Women are the quintissentially damned of the species," a literary quote by author Thomas Hardy. An essential description of many of his books. For a brief explanation of the images, turn to the dictionary. If you still don't get it, then email me and I'll do my best to explain...

Chance [updated]: Using the element of chance to create images we might normally never take. To prevent complete manipulation, I chose to do double-exposures (using one roll of film twice) to get these unexpected results...

Compositions 1 and 2: My final project. Culled from pictures I had taken throughout the course, and specifically for this project. The theme is "man-made objects." Part 1 are things I found out in the world, and part 2 are from a series of office building lights (all the same building).

Scarecrow Series: While walking around one day, I came upon a field of scarecrows made by an enterprising kid's craft class. A not-to-be-missed photo opportunity. 3-4 of this group will be submitted with my photo major portfolio submission. I only wish I had room for more images - probably my favorite group of photos.

Miscellaneous: Single images of compositions, abstractions, people, and of course, the obligatory pet photo (hey, at least I tried to make it interesting)...
