Baby Photos

I'm trying to get lots of pictures for my final project at school. So I asked my wonderful visiting teaching partner to bring her new baby over for a photo session. She was so cute. I was hoping to get some shots of her asleep, but she wasn't having anything to do with sleeping. They are cute none the less.

Hello

Just a random picture to let you all know that I'm still alive. Life has been crazy as usual around here, just like I'm sure it is for everyone else. I haven't had much time to blog lately so I decided to post this pretty picture that I took today. We have another one of those "artsy" assignments in my photography class this week. It's due on Wednesday. This is my before picture. Just a normal picture.



So you're supposed to take a picture of your subject. Then go back, zoom in, and take the photo in sections. Starting at the upper right hand corner and then all the way to the lower left hand corner. So you should have around 20 - 30 photos. The you take them and put them together in a collage. It's supposed to be abstract, but that's where I have trouble. I'm a very literal person. So here is my version that I'm turning in on Wednesday.

Here is the after picture.



Even when our instructor was showing us some examples it was making my head spin. My eyes try to focus and figure out what it is. I just didn't enjoy it. By the time I left the class, I had a headache and a touch of dizzyness. Oh well. Now it's on to our final project. It will be more fun. I've already started and have some great shots. I have to create a slideshow for my final project. When I get it done I'll try to figure out how to post it on the blog. Then you all can see it too.
