This summer, since I have become part of the Lakeridge AP Art family, I was assigned some tarea del vierno. I was instructed to take 1000 pictures and i did just that! I think I did pretty well on the time management side of things. I finished in late July, and that's pretty early for me! I kept on taking pictures, though, because I wanted to be able to pick and choose by sorting out some bad ones and replacing them with good pictures! The most enjoyable part of my picture taking endeavors was probably the way people respected me as a photographer. I know it sounds lame, but I've never really immersed myself into the picture-taking world! People really wanted to help me if I asked. In San Jose, I walked right into a tattoo parlor and straight up asked this lady if I could take a picture of her neck (she was tattooing a picture of her cat's eyes on the back of her neck), and she was like "oooh yes! I love the young people! What a lovely blouse, young lady!" The tattoo artist kinda grunted in an approvalish way, so I took several pictures of this old lady's neck. But the only reason they let me take the pictures was because I told them that I was a student, and the pictures I was taking would be for an art project. But all in all, I liked the summer homework! It was probably the best homework I've ever been assigned because it gave me an excuse to get out of my house to be artsy! These are some pictures that I took on my summer photography excursion.
I really like the texture that you used, especially in the middle on and I love the perspective. You have to show me how to do the top one :)
