(the last one didn't have the edge I was going for)
Hey everyone, great job last week! I had an excellent time going through all of the pictures and appreciate those of you who dropped by to take a look at my stuff. We are all winners.
Day 1:
Carlie's "Green Veins" takes the foliage day prize because I love the lighting and the way you can see the veins that are necessary for plant life so vividly.
Day 2:
It's all about the fathers and sons. I did a picture of my brother, Luke, and his baby. Jim Groom depicted what I envision for Luke and Truett's future-- frolicking in the front yard, having "conversations," and just general adoration from both parties to the other.
Day 3:
I didn't particularly like this day's prompt, but such is the nature of a project like this. Ed captured a photo with the creativity I could not muster and I love the incorporation of the actual pocket in the picture.
Day 4:
Jessica hit the target with this bear. I couldn't put my finger on it for the longest time, but now I think I know why it's my favorite. Most of the time, in "real" life, when a person looks at you straight on like the bear is in this picture, they are spaced out or just taking in what you're saying. People don't just look at each other and smile for the sake of smiling.
Bears do, apparently. I also really like Bear's hoodie-- awesome!
Day 5:
I guess I just have this thing for little figurine thingys, but I really like how debonair Stephanie's frog looks up against the lamp stand and how his stance is reflected in the base. A nice departure from the traditional mirror avenue that most of the class (including myself) took.
Day 6:
I don't know how the mailroom people do it, but I am so glad they manage the chaos. Morrgan perfectly captured the behind the scenes mess they have to deal with, and I love the entire composition!
Day 7:
The red stripe, the bridge and the trees make this photo of Jenn's. So perfect and so *classic* Fredericksburg. Well, really classic for anywhere.
Day 8:
I never knew there were so many ways to stack books! I loved how Ashley arranged hers-- reminded me of Jenga. Which reminds me of college life. Not because we all sit around and play jenga, but because my mind feels that scattered sometimes-- that on the brink of collapse. This would especially be true if I was trying to master the subjects represented by Ashley's stack of books.

ReplyDeleteThat is terrible! Had to learn that one the hard way, too. =(
Enjoyed reading your commentary on these images. What you said about the bear makes sense. Until I read your commentary, I couldn't really figure out why I liked it so much, but your point about looking at people for the sake of smiling is really interesting.
