IR Landscapes: Cows, Pond scum, and Gravel path


I think it's funny that the cows look exactly the same in both pictures, like they wouldn't care at all if the grass suddenly turned pink.


 I think the reflection in the pond is really interesting in this photo because it isn't very clear in the green one, but the pink shows up much better.


I like the angle of the shadow from the railing in this one, and the way the bushes are coming through the wire.

IR Landscapes: Backyard garden


I think it's interesting that any bushes that started out red were changed to green.

IR Landscapes:Trees in a field


These are from our infrared landscape project. The thing I like the most about this picture is the focus on the texture of the grass.

Tattoo, Girl sits with boy, child plays

 When I took this picture, I actually approached someone and asked if I could take a picture of their ink. He was extremely nice and even told me about another street photographer I should look up. My favorite tattoo is the animal wearing the hat. I think it's a duck, and I like how it looks like the beak has run into his shirt.
 When I took this, the girl glared at me as soon as she heard the shutter click. The boy, on the other hand, didn't seem to care that much. I like that I caught her in the middle of sitting down because it adds the feeling that she is returning to him after walking away.
This was an adorable little girl that was playing on a ledge while her mother watched. She was so cute that I just had to take a picture. Unfortunately, the negative wasn't very good. I do like that her mother is not all in the photo, because it shows the mindlessness of children and the way they can ignore their parents.

People waiting for the bus

I like that there are so many people waiting for the bus. but only one bike.

Woman Walking

I really like the contrast in this picture between the woman and the walkway.

Architecture

I really like the focus of the stair railing in this photo. A lot of time, when I'm talking pictures on the stairs, I'm focusing on one of my cats. During this photo they kept trying to get on the stairs, and I had to move them.
This is porch lights seen through a large window above the front door. I like the symmetry with the squares and the two lights.
I've always like the patters of the rafters in this church. I love looking up at them when I'm there because they fascinate me. I also tried to get the window, but it was too light outside. My grandfather made it out of stained glass.
This is inside the same building as the rafters of the previous picture. However, this one was meant to focus more on the rectangular windows and their contrast with the angled interior of the building.
Here are my architecture pictures. The last two were larger prints, so the last one is the same as one of the earlier ones. I like the big one because it shows the rafters in better detail.
