Complementary Homework


I had a hard time trying to find complementary colors, but I remembered Karen saying that yellow and purple were a good example so I chose this yellow rose with little purple flowers in the background. It's not the most clear image, but I did it with the macro lense so the corners of each flower are slightly blurred, but I like the effect and I think it adds to the overall image of the photo.

Monochrome Homework

This photo was taken in an upstairs bedroom at my mom's house. The pillow, sheet, and blanket are all different shades of green so I thought this worked for the monochrome picture. I thought it was really hard to try and find something and I do not really like this picture, but I believe it serves its purpose.

Lighting Homework


I took this photo outside against the snow in natural light. This picture is my favorite of the different light sources because the rose really stands out.

Lighting Homework


I took this photo using the flash. I actually went into my basement with no lights on and took this.

Lighting Homework


This photo was taken under a flourescent light and is one of the images that I did in different lighting.

My Trip

I recently went to Chicago to visit my sister who is studying for the bar exam. While there we decided to go to the tallest building in the United States. We were on the 103rd floor of the Sears Tower and the view was amazing. Although the picture is not very good it was a lot of fun to take pictures from such a height and different perspective. I took many other pictures from every angle imaginable, but this was the clearest shot I got. I had a great time in Chicago and I'm glad that I got to see such a historical building. While in Chicago we also saw Second City and did many other interesting things like the Field Museum which has the most well preserved and complete Tyrannosaurus rex, her name is Sue. Overall, Chicago was wonderful and I wish I had more photos to share!
