In which we tried to learn photoshop
And NO ONE knew how to find PhotoShop let alone use it….
Except Pavel….He knew too much
Brian asks his class “Does anyone Listen to radio?”
No one raises their hand…..
NO ONE! #RadioLoneliness
This is for my photo essay. I think “my people” and I really like sitting on the steps of angel hall and my kind of people are the ones that like that too. My people are also the people who attend classes at U of M. We belong to a community.
I wanted to experiment with looking at things from a different angle and conflict in seeing things from a different perspective . How looking over the edge or up a wall can give new perspective to a something.
This is one of the images I’m planning on using in my photo essay: my friend Nick in a lion blanket. I like this photo because of the expression on his face, and how out-of-place he looks - almost like a lost bachelor who forgot to take off his robe when he left the house.
Missing the Camera
We’ve looked at a lot of pictures that are posed, or have people staring directly into the camera, that display a lot of emotion. I don’t have much photographic skill, and found it really hard to recreate that - but one thing I’ve enjoyed doing is taking candid photos of people.
I took all three of these as candid photographs with the intention of never having the person’s eyes facing the camera. Aja, my friend John, and the guy playing pool at the bar were my three subjects, and I tried to vary the composition as much as I could while still having common markers, like the rule of thirds.
