For today’s dailycreate, I created my favorite symbol out of thread!

I have no idea why I put this assignment off, it was actually fun! This was my list:   Time: What does disappointment look like? Breaking an egg on the counter today while cooking was my biggest disappoint and making...

Nothing like a late night photoblitz. Here is my list of pictures I needed to take.   My start time:   Not only can doors have a lot of character but the doorknobs reflect the person taking a picture of it.   My first ever square picture. Thanks to the iPhone it is really simple […]

I imagine this is the bug’s eye view when The Wafflestomper comes around hiking. I really wanted to get some of the lugged sole in the image, so I played around with sliding it to the edge of an elevated surface.  I could get the camera lens under the boot better that way, which gave […]

This week seem a little easier than the other few weeks. I didn’t wait until the last minute this week to get all my work done because I knew I had to leave this weekend so I started doing my work early. I really do think that the visual assignments were much more easier than […]

So for my first Daily Create was “Show us your favorite song in a picture”  So I chose my favorite song as “Dirt” by Florida Georgia Line. The song talks about living in the country, which is where I live in such a rural area.  The photo that I chose was a picture of a […]

Will Smith once said, “You can cry, ain’t no shame in it.” After live tweeting the three days we had...

Week 5: Visual Assignment #2 Choosing and Brainstorming For my second visual assignment, I chose to create an Opposites Attract Meme by taking two opposite animals and creating a hybrid animal. I immediately thought about lions and zebras (I’ve seen too much National Geographic), and thought the combination would create…

This assignment was to create a visual pyramid of the last three things you drank that day.  I started with my commuter thermos in the back, which is the best thermos drink holder I have ever owned.  It’s completely leak proof and keeps coffee warm for hours.  No danger of it leaking onto my laptop […]

Week 5: Visual Assignment 1 For my first visual assignment, I chose the Backyard Photo Safari assignment because I absolutely love taking photos of nature and I knew I was going home this weekend. At UMW, my backyard isn’t interesting at all (I live in the Eagle Landing apartments) as…

John Legend once said, “We should care about what is going on in the world.” For this assignment, I basically...

McNulty’s famous line “What the fuck did I do?” appears all over “The Wire”. Here we have a scene from Season 1, Episode 1 where he’s in a bar talking with Bunk and saying he feels like a character from “Bridge On The River Kwai” and says “What the fuck did I do?” On the […]

My final assignment I completed was the “My Favorite Lyric.” I chose lyrics from the song American Kids by Kenny Chesney. I like the song as a whole so it was tough to choice a specific part that I wanted. After looking for some pictures to show the lyrics I found one that I really […]

Brother Mouzone Comin': Episodes 7, 8, 9 from Season 2 Episode 7 Bodie in the florist shop asking for “strong colors like red and black” on his housing project flower arrangement was surreal.  The florist had the interesting gun arrangement in the back room suggesting there is enough demand for that sort of thing, for […]

Inspired by this small assignment, I decided to see what if it would look like if I had a house on Mars. I used this image of the Martian surface taken by the Curiosity rover, and an image of a window pane found on google, and GIMP as the editing tool. I set the window […]

I liked this assignment because I thought that it was a nice way to learn the tools available within a  free editing program like GIMP. I took a photo of my backyard, and decided to focus on the blue of the pool. While the image might not look like much in terms of color emphasis, […]

Unfortunately, I have been sick over the weekend, but I managed to capture the sounds around me. They aren’t the best, and I don’t have the best sound equipment, but it came out decently I think. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed the 30 seconds of sick life. –

For my final daily create i chose to do Saturdays. This daily create was about audio, oddly enough. This week is supposed to be about visuals! But daily create’s are just little exercises so no worries. The daily create asks you to stand still and record the sounds around. I wasn’t sure if that meant that […]

This was a very fun assignment.  I enjoyed finding the topic of each picture.  Sometimes you had to be creative.  I started my photoblitz at 11:44 am and ended at 12:04 pm.  Luckily, I was able to creatively take a picture for each of the requests. The first picture is of my list and my […]

Meems once said, “Love is like Lemons.” So I remembered Professor Groom telling that we had to make two assignments...

This week was visual week and packed full with visual assignments. Through working on those assignment I gained a more focused attention to how things look and are presented to me, both in shows, photos and other media. I definitely paid more attention to the visual aspect of the Wire, especially with color and character […]

This assignment was a little bit tricky for me, it was hard to find two of my pictures to correspond with each other. These pictures were both taken on my vacation in Kentucky. Creating a panorama on your own can be very...

For this assignment, I focused on McNulty. He is very easy to find mirror scenes of because they portray him always the same throughout the episodes.   I thought about who the show focuses on more, McNutly came to mind...

This assignment really had me deep in thought.  What would be my perfect day?  I hit google images to try to explain to everyone what my idea of a perfect day would be…. My perfect day would begin with a view like this from my bed waking up next to my husband… (after adult time […]

  I thought the idea of a Wanted Poster assignment was perfect for wire106. Hats off to Kris for making it. McNulty ought be get hauled in for his escapades in the last episode, so I thought he’d make a good … Continue reading →

Had a chance to try out a photoblitzer challenge for the first time! My goal is to take photos capturing the essence of the prompts provided to me in 20 minutes or less! The list I got is shown below: Make a beautiful photo of something rusted or crushed. Where would we be without tools? […]
