Aspects of Style

i originally wanted to take a picture of the clouds and colors of the sunset but the hard lines of the wires with the soft lines caught my eye, the contrasts contribute to my style

Again the contrast between dark and light drew me to take this picture. I like it because of the indefinite line that separates the sky and trees makes it feel random but cohesive at the same time

A main part of my style is focus, and the lines of the plant blurring out and then sharpening caught my eye and caused me to change the original composition of the picture

Shadows and light have always been something that draw me into photos and while this is an extremely simple picture i think that the varied values give it a surprisingly unique feel

Shadows and light were also going to be the original focus of this picture but the negative space that the arcs create while being symmetrical contributes to my style. 

Memories

I am an only child so when my parents had dinner parties I would entertain myself with wax from candles. Dipping my fingertips into the warm pool, covering leafs to save and ruining napkins. 

I used to love hot airs balloons. The patterns were so amazing to be and I made a huge deal every time I saw one, wishing I was up there. 

I spent hundreds of hours in a car with my parents driving from Tahoe and this picture of highway sunset billboards and fields brings back nostalgia. Theres a specific feeling of security and familiarity when laying down in the back seat of a car with your parents in the front. 

My mom and I used to take carriage rides all the time and I would try to set the horses free because I thought they shouldn't be tied up in a city. Their eyes always looked so tired and sad to me. 

My favorite thing in the entire world when I was younger was running and running and running through parks and fields and lawns. the tilted angle makes me feel the movement of running and how I saw the world when I was little.
