Hello!! I spent at least a half an hour trying to figure out what in the world I was going to do for this assignment. I eventually just decided to make a parody of “fighting the good fight” and staying awake at work! Check out the Flickr link below, I’m sharing it that way because … Continue reading *wakes up and looks at time* *goes back to sleep*

SO you all have been introduced to Oscar already, but he’s my favorite so here he is again. The bottom right picture is my cat, Willie. He is very fat and lazy, but very sweet as long as he isn’t hungry. I used an app called “Layout” that is built into Instagram to make this […]

Dear Me, It’s easy to think about what’s to come in the next week, month, maybe even year. But 10 years…that requires a little bit of thinking…the date is September 11th, 2018 (keep this in mind). In 10 years, I’ll be 31. I hope to be married for at least 6 years now. I hope […]

“It’s the circle of life!” Using the website http://weavesilk.com/, I created this abstract art. Since I cannot do anything without thoroughly thinking it through, this picture does have meaning. It starts with the yellow-the sun-which gives energy through photosynthesis to plants and provides warmth to the world. It is the most circular shape of any […]

September 17, 2018

I do not have any real experience with photography beyond taking pictures of my friends. I have very little experience editing images… I have worked with images through sites such as Shutterfly before, and I have applied Instagram filters to pictures, but that’s about it. I take some pictures, but I would not say that …

Breaking Down “Tangled”

by @KaraDS106

| ds106photography, Syndicated
September 17, 2018

Selection- Tangled is extremely picky. Every frame has a purpose. When combined with the audio, the images are always working towards further telling the story. It’s hard to show an example for this- go watch the movie and see how each image plays a part! Contrast- Contrast is used many ways throughout the movie, but my …

For this post, I am finding pictures from movies and videos related to the theme of myth, legend, and folklore. I don’t believe I will be very great at finding these specific examples that match the “narration” of the image, but I will try. Moment: I chose a scene from 300 where the photographer who …

I don’t have much previous photography experience unless you count constant pictures of my son with my iPhone. I’ve never even held a “real” camera. I wouldn’t even be able to tell you which picture was the “better” one out of a group. I’m excited to learn more about photography and hopefully develop an eye …

I loved this week. I’m much more of a writer than someone who can edit pictures or write software (not even sure that’s the write lingo), so I was grateful for a manageable week. Our story analysis was tricky for me. I couldn’t really connect with any of the examples we were given, so I …

Dear Mom, I don’t even know where to start. They say you never truly appreciate your mom until you become a mom yourself… man is that true. This mom gig is hard. I feel like I never know what I’m doing or what’s coming. When I was younger I thought you knew everything. Then I …

I have to admit-I am not very skilled at photography! I don’t have much photography experience, not even an elective class in middle or high school. Back in late elementary school into early middle school, I used this little red Canon digital camera to take photos and videos. I really enjoyed using it too! However, […]
